Description:
During this ABLE presentation Ron demonstrated how electricians use linear inequalities in the field of electrical work to solve multistep word problems involving variations of Ohm’s Law. Ron worked with students to find the maximum amount of wattage a circuit can handle at a given voltage before the breaker pops. Given a constant use of electricity students calculated how much additional electricity a particular circuit can handle. |
