POTATO INTO BATTERY Abstract a.Purpose To lessen the consume of electric charge b. Procedure We insert copper and zinc electrodes in to the potato‚ close but not touching each other. We use Clip leads to connect our electrodes to the Multimeter to measure voltage between two electrodes or current passing through the multimeter. For this experiment we used a galvanized nail for our Zinc electrode. c. Result It did go well and the potato did give voltage to the equipment (clock) However‚ the

ABSTRACT A Fruit battery is a device used in experiments proposed in many science textbooks around the world. It is made by inserting two different metallic objects‚ for example a galvanized nail and a copper coin‚ into an ion bridge (for example a lemon‚ a potato or paper soaked in salt water or acid). The copper coin serves as the positive electrode or cathode and the galvanized nail as the electron-producing negative electrode or anode. These two objects work as electrodes‚ causing anelectrochemical

Group 2 Science Investigatory Project I Title: Potato Battery II Objective: We only need a potato‚ a couple nails and a piece of wire to make a potato battery. It’s a fun science project that helps show the way things work in a battery by using everyday items we see around the house. The goal is to learn more about electricity‚ and possibly a few new science terms along the way. III Materials: * Two Potatoes * Two short pieces of heavy copper wire * Two common galvanized nails

Introduction In the context of criminal law‚ "assault and battery" are typically components of a single offense. In tort law‚ "assault" and "battery" are separate‚ with an assault being an act which creates fear of an imminent battery‚ and the battery being an unlawful touching. Assault and battery are intentional torts‚ meaning that the defendant actually intends to put the plaintiff in fear of being battered‚ or intends to wrongfully touch the plaintiff. The wrongful touching need not inflict
