How to make a simple cell-holder for batteries

USE A PIECE OF RUBBER

HOSE AND A KNIFE

CUT A SLIT INTO THE HOSE

SLIDE THE NUMBER OF CELLS YOU NEED INTO THE SLIT YOU HAVE CUT

I GRADE 9 YOU WILL BE WORKING WITH THE FOLLOWING POWER SOURCES

EXPLAIN TO LEARNERS

WHY WE SAY THESE CELLS

ARE CONNECTED

IN SERIES

A SIMPLE CIRCUIT WITH CELLS CONNECTED IN SERIES

PUSH SWITCHALWAYS ON

SWITCH MADE WITH PAPER CLIP AND THUMB TACK

TOGGLE SWITCH

PUSH SWITCH ALWAYS OFF

PUSH SWITCH Normally ON in its normal state

It switches OFF when you press it

PUSH SWITCH Normally OFF in its normal state

It switches ON when you press it

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM

LDR, buzzer, 3v battery

Buzzer sounds when light of torch is brought close

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM

LDR with LED

LED is ON in absence of LIGHT

LED is OFF in presence of LIGHT

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM

Circuit with switch, resistor, capacitor, diode & LED

NOTE- LED is OFF

NOTE- LED is ON

NOTE POWER SUPPLY IS REMOVED BUT - LED is still ON
