Learning to be a maker has never been more fun. Lavishly illustrated
with cartoons and drawings, this book guides the reader through six
hands-on projects using electricity. Discover the electrical potential
lurking in a stack of pennies - enough to light up an LED or power a
calculator! Launch a flying LED copter into the air. Make a speaker that
plays music from an index card. Build working motors from a battery, a
magnet, and some copper wire. Have fun while learning about and
exploring the world of electricity. The projects in this book illuminate
such concepts as electric circuits, electromagnetism,
electroluminescence, the Lorentz force and more. You'll be amazed by the
results you get with a handful of simple materials.
