Voltage: The energy that electrons get from a power supply.
Current: The movement of electrons.
Aim: To create voltage out of a lemon.
Method:
- Roll the lemon out so the inside is liquidy.
- Stick a piece of zinc and copper into the lemon.
- Connect the lemon up to a voltmeter.
Results:
One lemon: 1 voltage
Two lemons: 2 volts
All of the lemons: 2.3 volts
Discussion: When we rolled the lemon we made the inside liquidy. Because we rolled the lemon we freed the acidicly charged particles. The acidicly charged particles moved around creating a current. More lemons more acidicly charged particle meaning more voltage.
Conclusion: This experiment worked showing how a lemon can create voltage. Next time I would try to make sure the lemon doesn't leak so much.
