Output
In this car activity, when we turn the battery on, the DC motor starts
spinning and makes the car move forward in a straight line. The car moves
when the switch is on and stops when the switch is off. This shows how
electricity, motors, and movement work together to make the car go.
Concepts
• Electric Circuits and Motors: Students will see how the battery gives
power to the DC motor, which makes the car’s wheels move. This helps
to understand that how electrical energy changes into movement
(mechanical energy).
• Switch Control and Motion: Switches work on the concept of make or
break a circuit, it helps us to decide when to move or stop a car. These
switches also help us to control the electronic devices at home.
Observations
In this activity, students will notice that the car moves forward when
the switch is on and stops when the switch is off. This happens because
electricity flows to the motor when the circuit is complete, making the
motor run. When the switch is off, the circuit is broken, and the motor
stops. This helps students understand how electric motors work, how
energy moves, and how switches control devices.
