Everybody Hertz
from Lexx Education Hosted by lexxeducation
Hello and welcome to another episode of Lexx Education! The comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx tries to learn science from her nerdy younger brother Ron. You probably heard the deep sad sighs at the time of recording but it's back to physics this week, and the siblings are fuming to realise they are still on electricity. But, Ron has a trick up his sleeve this week in the form of an interactive website! Can Laura take it seriously enough to learn or will the batteries just burn for eternity? Eburnity. We cover circuits in parallel and series this week and really try to hammer in the concepts of volts, potential difference, resistors, amps, ohms. There is particular resistance to the concept of resistance. Ironic. Laura and Ron discuss a potential school trip cross over episode with The National Treasures Podcast which is Laura’s other podcast with comedian Will Duggan. If you’re not already a listener (delishioner) then do give it a listen. https://linktr.ee/nationaltreasures (it also features Ron on the patrons only podcast). We also have another stellar example of Ron not knowing how to deal with human emotions. What a lovely feature of the podcast that is turning into. Here is the interactive website we are playing with, do have an explore if you too want to get your head round circuits: https://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/circuit-construction-kit-dc/latest/circuit-construction-kit-dc_en.html
