    The materials we used for this project were the fruits and vegetables and an amp meter to measure the current flow in them. We learned the difference between electrical charge and conductivity. We measured the electrical charge first and the conductivity second. First‚ we looked for current flow in each of the fruits and vegetables using the micro amp scale on the meter. Second‚

    The Leeuwin Current is a tropical current‚ consisting of warm‚ low salinity water that affects Western Australia’s coastal waters and wildlife. Currents are part of a large sub circular current system called a gyre. The currents in the Southern hemisphere gyres circulate in an anti-clockwise direction (Skinner‚ Porter & Botkin‚ 1999‚ p.249). There is a current in each of the major oceans that generally flow northwards along the western coast of continents. However‚ the Leeuwin Current flows southwards

    Current Balance PHY 114 10/29/2013 Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to understand the current balance‚ current balance is an apparatus that allows measurement of the small force between two current carrying conductors. It consists of two parallel horizontal bars‚ which are connected in series. The current flows in opposite directions in the two conductors so there is a repulsive force between them‚ by Newton’s third law there are equal and opposite forces on both wires. In the
