TITLE: Report: Electricity & Electrical Circuits

YOUR NAME:

ABSTRACT:

• What you did (Explain the Procedure that you followed)
• How you did it (Give the tool and/or "simulator URL" used)
• Why you did it (What was the purpose for doing this experiment)
• What you found (Discuss the quality of your data based on the size of percent error values if you have any and/or Discuss something that you figured out about how the values in your data change as you manipulate the simulator)

DATA/ANALYSIS: This is the Completed Experiment Handout (upload separately)

CONCLUSION: What did you learn, not what you did using the simulator (Explain a concept, skill, tool, or formula that you learned as a result of doing this experiment)
