Research and Problem Solving in Electricity
In this Lab Assignment (LA) you will do research and problem solving in Electricity. It is an exploratory assignment.
You will conduct research on Charge (Q), Voltage (V) and Current (I) and their applications. Conducting research means, review the articles, websites, and/or study materials on subject Charge, Voltage, and Current and understand the applications. I have provided some relevant website links for your research study. You may search other websites or refer related books or articles that might be available in the Library.
