Introduction to Electricity Grade: 5 - 12 Electricity for kids - The lesson explains electricity as the flow of atomic particles called electrons. Learn about electron flow, how batteries work, and electricity terms like volts, current and amperes. 5:15 |
Electricity and Circuits Grade: 5 - 12 The lesson is an introduction to electricity and circuits. It explains that electrons are the charged particles that carry electrical energy in most circuits. The lesson includes a demonstration of series and parallel circuits. 8:35 |
Fossil-Fuelled Electricity Grade: 5 - 12 The video explains how fossil fuels, especially coal, are used to generate electricity in thermal power plants. 2:10 |
Intro to Generating Electricity Grade: 5 - 12 A presentation on electricity generation. 5:15 |
Electricity Generation Grade: 5 - 12 Learn how electricity flows from its source to the light bulb in your home. It explains different fuels, thermal power generation, transmission and the grid. 5:20 |
Electricity and Matter - Conductor and Insulators Grade: 5 - 12 A presentation on properties that make some elements and materials conductors of electricity, while other materials are insulators. It explains electron orbitals and shells, free electrons, valence electrons, conductivity and resistance. 8:30 |
Physical Science - Ohm's Law Grade: 8 - 12 The lesson explains Ohm's Law. Ohm's Law states that electric current is directly proportional to voltage applied and inversely proportional to resistance between two points. 9:25 |
Voltage and Current, part 1 Grade: 8 - 12 Learn about voltage and current. The lesson describes voltage, the potential difference or 'pressure' that pushes electric charges through conductors. 7:25 |
Voltage and Current, part 2 Grade: 8 - 12 6:30 |
Electrical Meters - An Introduction Grade: 8 - 12 Learn about electrical meters that measure current (ammeter), voltage (voltmeter), and resistance (ohmmeter). The lesson explains how electromagnetic and electrostatic meters work, and the operation of a cathode-ray oscilloscope. 9:55 |
