6V 1A What does 6V mean? What does 1A mean? Lamp A
4
The flow over the Huka Falls fluctuates between 32 and 270 cubic metres per second. On average the daily flow over the falls is 160 cubic metres per second
5
If there are 7 drops of water in 1cm 3, how long would it take for 6,000,000,000,000,000,000 (6 million million million drops) drops of water to flow over the Huka Falls? (average flow rate = 160cubic metres per second)
6
6,000 cubic metres/second Time for 6 million million million drops?
7
6V 1A Two lamps Identical to lamp A are placed in series What is the brightness of lamp B compared with lamp A? Lamp BLamp C a)B is the same brightness as A b)B is half as bright as A c)B is quarter as bright as A
8
How many models do we need for electricity?
