Simple Electrical Circuits

Demonstration of batteries and bulbs

Conductors (wires)
Batteries (source of electrical energy, power)
Light bulb (something for circuit to do, the "load")
Voltage (across)
Current (through)

Results of Demo

Fewer batteries -> lower voltage -> lower current -> less brightly illuminated.
Scanned image of data plotted on viewgraph by hand as collected in SCEN167.
Computer plot of data, as it might appear in print.
