DC Circuit Builder
The Physics Classroom is glad to join efforts with our friends at Nerd Island Studios in order to offer website visitors the DC Circuit Builder Interactive. This HTML5 simulation provides a learner with a virtual circuit builder in order to build and explore circuit concepts. DC Circuit Builder can be used to easily explore simple circuits, series circuits, parallel circuits, combination circuits, and more. Being an HTML5 simulation, it is compatible with tablets such as the iPad, with Chromebooks, and with all mobile devices.
Users are encouraged to open the Interactive and explore. For a more guided experience, The Physics Classroom has prepared an activity for use with this Interactive and encourages teachers to use it with their classes.
