INTRODUCTION
Electricity is a naturally occurring force that exists all around
us. Humans have been aware of this force for many centuries.
It used to be that if you had a string of holiday lights and one bulb
went out, the whole string no longer worked. This was because
the lights were set up in a series circuit. Recently, companies
have started producing lights and other electronics that are set
up in parallel circuits. Circuits carry electric current when they
are in a closed loop, and can act differently depending on the
physical set up of the circuit. Current, which is the flow of
electrons in a circuit, can be carried through wires, barriers, and
any functional pieces of circuits, like lights.
Ohms law is an equation that describes the relationship
between voltage (electric force), current (electron flow) and
resistance (the resistance of an object to passing electric current).
I=V/R
Where V is voltage, measured in volts (V), I is current, measured
in amperes (A), and R is electrical resistance, measured in ohms
()
In a series circuit, the parts of the circuit are in a row, one after
the other so current flows through them. Parallel circuits are set
up so that the current has an independent path to take through
each piece. For holiday lights, this means one bulb can burn out

EXPERIMENT SAFETY:
1. Dont touch it if your hands are wet
2. Use shoes when arrange the circuit.
3. Handle every equipment carefully.
PROCEDURE:
Hear the instruction of your teacher.
Make an electricity circuit by yourself. Pick up the needed
equipment from the box to make an electricity.
