Typology

Experimental protocol

We've all heard about the Estoril circuit, the Indianapolis circuit, the maintenance circuit, the electrical circuit ... upssss, does the latter remind you of anything? Maybe ... a shock? House electrical circuits? In this activity it is possible to explore the electric current using unusual materials (in this context) and without having your hair standing on end! Using aluminium foil, paper clips, batteries and LEDs (light emitting diodes) you will be able to build “wires”, simple switches and push buttons and with them be able to produce and explore simple electrical circuits.


This activity comes under the program #cienciavivaathome. From the kitchen to the bathroom, even walking through the garage, no room was left out: after all, science is everywhere!
