Ampere's House

At the Ampere house we got to see the evolution of physics. How scientisits have observed first magnetic phenomenta of metals, then they found electricity and all other ways in which electric power can be implemented. At this site we also were able to do activities related to electricity and power. We got to ride an electric bike and learned that it would be an ecologically efficient transportation! Also we did experiments with circuits, solar power and calculation of a specific heat.

  1. I really liked the activities we did at Ampere's house. It was really cool to see how many watts were used while using the different speeds of the hair dryer. I now know how to save electricity if I were to dry my hair with a hair dryer. I also liked looking at the x-ray machine at the end of the listening tour. It was interesting to see a picture of the actual device being used. There weren't any protective coats or smocks used during that time.
