Lemon Power

Lemon Power: 

Voltage: Voltage is the energy that electrons get from a power supply. Voltage is used to make electrical components work, like light bulbs.

Current: Current is the movement of electrons, we measure current with am ammeter. An ammeter measures how many electrons pass it every second. 

Aim: To create voltage out of a lemon.

1. Roll the lemon out so the inside is liquid. 

2. Stick a piece of zinc and copper into the lemon. 

3. Connect the lemon up to a voltmeter. 

Result: 



Discussion: When we rolled the lemon we made the inside liquidy. We freed up all of these acidic charged particles. When it is solid, nothing is moving but when we make it a liquid all of the particles move around and create a circuit. 

Conclusion: The first volt was 0.5 and then we moved it closer together and it got 1.5. When we connected all of the classes lemons it was 2.7
