Natural Sciences and Technology Grade 6 Term 3: Energy and Change Systems to solve Problems
Topic 3 Systems to solve problems Electric Circuits Natural Sciences and Technology - Grade 6
Electric Circuits Electrical circuits are often used to solve electrical problems. A circuit needs a cell (battery source of energy), a conductor (wire) a light bulb or a switch . Natural Sciences and Technology - Grade 6
Symbols used to represent different components in a simple circuit battery cell wire/conductor Natural Sciences and Technology - Grade 6
Symbols used to represent different components in a simple circuit Open switch light bulb closed switch Natural Sciences and Technology - Grade 6
A cell and a light bulb Natural Sciences and Technology - Grade 6
Two light bulbs in parallel and two cells in series Natural Sciences and Technology - Grade 6
Two parallel cells and two parallel light bulbs Natural Sciences and Technology - Grade 6
Crocodile clips Crocodile clips are attached to the ends of the conducting wire for easier gripping. Natural Sciences and Technology - Grade 6
