Science Experiment, Lemon Power

This day in science is explaining to you guys what is the meaning of voltage and current. So the meaning of voltage is an electromotive force or potential difference express in volts. And the meaning for the current is the flow of charges from positive to Negative. 

Aim: To create voltage out of the lemon.

Method:

  • Roll the lemon out so the inside is liquid.
  • Stick a piece of zinc and copper into the lemon.
  • Connect the lemon up to a voltmeter. 
Result: 
1 voltage
Closer 1 voltage
Opposite 1 voltage


Discussion: When we got the lemon we rolled the lemon so it turns it too liquidy, When we have rolled it out we have to charge these acidic particles. What happens was by rubbing the lemon this creates a current that flows. 

Conclusion: The Experiment work because it moves the voltmeter up to 1 volt, and then for all the lemon it was 2 and a half volts.

Should cannabis be legalised?

Should Cannabis be legalized? In my opinion, Cannabis should not be legalized because it will harm the people that are using it. Some effects that will happen to you immediately when you used cannabis are sleepiness, low blood pressure, anxiety, Bloodshot eyes, and a lot more things that can harm you really bad. 

What will the effect of cannabis for a long period of time? The effects of using cannabis for the long term is your breathing will not going to be normal, you will increase the risk of having cancer on your lungs. There are a lot more things that can happen to you when you are using cannabis. 

If you are a pregnant girl and you are smoking cannabis, the Cannabis can be passed on to an unborn baby through the placenta, or to an infant in breast milk. Once that happens that will affect the baby.    

What will the effect of cannabis for a short period of time? There is a lot of things that can happen to you even though you only did it for short period of time. Here are some of the effects that will happen to you.  

  • Short-term memory problems
  • Severe anxiety, including the fear that one is being watched or followed (paranoia)
  • Very strange behavior, seeing, hearing or smelling things that aren’t there, not being able to tell imagination from reality (psychosis)

Political Party, Power to the people

This day on power to the people we have slightly made a progress about the Political policy, We almost finish all the task but sadly we did not have our leader for the political party so we can't do the last 2 tasks. We have started the manifesto a little bit but we can't finish it since our leader is not here at school.
