TESTING+CONDUCTORS+WITH+A+SIMULATION

Back to HOME > IGCSE PHYSICS > ELECTRICITY > ENERGY AND PD == =TESTING CONDUCTORS WITH A SIMULATION= Construct this circuit and place different objects from the Grab bag in the gap. For which objects does the lamp light? Are there other ways to tell if something is conducting? How can you adjust the circuit to show that some other objects (eg the dog) are not perfect insulators but just bad conductors?
