Complete Record: Fast edits of a train moving through an urban residential area, a rocket attacking off, man working in an electrical plant, tuning knobs, a woman vacuuming, a power plant creating lightning, a teenage boy conducting electricity with a pole. Cute but long animated cartoon shows the difference between positive and negative electrons. Specifically what happens when they are disrupted and subsequently transfer positive and negative energy. Electrons are represented as little cartoon creatures running from one place to another. A hand holding different types of metal such as iron and copper are shown as examples of good conductors. A table of plastics, rubber, porcelain and glass are displayed as examples of poor conductors. Metals resistance to the flow of electrons is made an example of with shots of light bulbs, and a woman turning in an incandescent lamp. the relationship between ohms, amperes and volts is demonstrated again with animated cartoons. Shot of an illuminated city boulevard. More fast edits of a train, streetlights, electrical towers,and air conditioners. Shots of power plants, magnets and an animated cartoon of the earth on its axis. More cartoons demonstrate currents in magnetic fields. CU of a subway , a clock, washing machine, an egg fryer, and a woman opening a refrigerator. Ms of a boy and girl doing electrical experiments. Two conductors casts a stream of electricity between them. The End.
