Contact Science Exhibit
The exciting interactive Contact Science exhibit is at the Rockwall County Library. Our second explorative unit is called Electric Adventures. What’s the difference between AC and DC circuits? What do resistors, capacitors, diodes, motors and transformers do? What is an oscilloscope and what does it do? Come and tinker with all these components and get the electricity moving.
While the exhibit is primarily for children in grades 3-6, younger and older kids and adults may enjoy exploring it as well. Electric Adventures will be at the Rockwall County Library through the end of the year and in 2013 we will have Optical Adventures. This exhibit is brought to us in collaboration with the University of Texas at Dallas.
