Power Wars: AC vs. DC
Part of Lesson Plan: AC/DC what's the difference?
Activity Overview / Details
After the students have had a chance in class to review DC circuits and begin to explore AC power, they are then ready to take that knowledge a bit further in some reading and discussion. If time remains, or for homework, have students read the following article on the progression of electricity grids in the United States.
