Science night

Well what a terrific night the cubs had this week. Thanks to Rama, we held a science night , where the cubs got to make an electeic magnet with a screw, wires and battery. The cubs were able to demonstrate it working by picking up washers.

The second experiment was to build a potato clock. This invovles using 2 potatos as the batteries, that are lined with wires to a digital clock. The idea is to shiw hiw a chemical reaction between zinc nails and the acids contained in the potatos can generate electricity.

They all worked after some adjustment.

Well done Rama this was a great night.
