Resistor Teacher Resources

Interactive lecture discusses internal resistance which provides help to students in developing an accurate model.

Everyday we are surrounded by circuits that use "in parallel" and "in series" circuitry. Complicated circuits designed by engineers are composed of many simpler parallel and series circuits. During this activity, students build a simple...

An absorption wavemeter is a device which can make measurements on the strength of radio emissions and so this instrument is an essential item for investigating the mobile phone. In principle an absorption meter is a simple device that...

This simulation is about an oscillatory electromagnetic circuit formed by a capacitor and an inductor.

This site features numerous interactive resources (such as simulations, interactive exercises, experiments, etc.) designed for teachers and students of the physical sciences. Some of the resources are available only on CD-ROM, but most...

A very comprehensive site organized well with many topics dealing with AC circuits.

See a worked example of question 2ab: 2015 AP Physics 1 free response.

This site, in German, offers numerous apps that illustrate common physics principles. Apps are organized into categories: mechanics, oscillations and waves, electrodynamics, optics, thermodynamics, the theory of relativity, physics of...

This site provides a small definition of Kirchhoff's Second Law as well as illustrations & animations that show how this law works.

This interactive simulation demonstrates how Ohm's Law works.
