Compare Material and Objects for Conductivity
Introduction
Compare material and objects for conductivity. Which one is a better conductor? How can we benefit from materials that are semi conductors or show some resistance in conducting electricity?
 
 Project description
Use an Ohm meter or construct a device to show the resistance of different objects in conducting electricity. Classify the material that you test based on their resistance to electricity.
Use a resistor (any object that does not fully conduct electricity) to control the electricity that gets to a small light bulb.
