Electricity can be simplified to the flow of electric charge. It can be seen in almost everything
nowadays: cell phones, computers, lights, and etc. In order to make electronic appliances perform
its work, electrical circuit is needed. Every single electronic current in any devices has a resistance,
a property of a component to restricts the flow, in it. Each of electronic appliances has its own
specific voltage requirement to start working. Voltage, in theory, is difference in amount of electric
current transferred from one to another place, in another word is potential difference. Their
relationship can be seen in something called Ohms law. Moreover, the concentration of light also
proves Wiens law.
Ohms law, in form of V = IR, stated that at a stable temperature, current 'I' through a
conductor at one distant is directly proportional to voltage 'V', across the two points. Conversely, the
ratio V : I is constant. This constant is said to be the resistance (R) of the conductor.
Wiens law stated that objects of different temperature emit spectra that
peak at different wavelengths
The purposes of this experiment are to demonstrate and verify Ohms law
whether adjusting amount of resistance will affect amount of electric current
or not and also to present Wien's law that says the color of light depends on
amount of heat created.

Procedures
For a lamp
1. Prepare a wire and then tear a middle part apart to make two wires.
2. Cut one of the wires at the center. Then peel plastic and use only 3 cm of copper inside the wire
3. Combine a switch those wires by using copper then screw the knot.
4. Repeat step 2 with another wire
5. Put the copper of second wire inside the dimmer then screw the knot.
6. Cover the copper and the dimmer with tape and make sure that it is completely stick.
7. At the both end of the wires, peel the cover out and combine one ending with plug.
8. At another ending of the wire, peel the plastic out and stick the copper inside into a lamp.
9. Hide the remaining wire inside the wooden box.
10. Stack the lamp above the wooden box.
11. Screw the lamp together with the box in order to make it stay attached.
12. Drill a hole on the wooden box letting the dimmer and switch expose to outside.
13. Put a light bulb on top of the lamp
14. Stick the exposed dimmer, switch, and lamp on the wood broad
For decoration
1. Blow a balloon
2. Mix water with glue
3. Put the yarn into the mixed glue in order to make it able to attach with the balloon
4. Wrap balloon with the yarn
5. Wait for the glue of a yarn to dry out and stick
6. Use a hair dryer to speed up the process
7. After the yarn dry, pop the balloon so that it left the yarn with balloon shape
8. Use the dry yarn to cover a lamp
9. Use the wire to make a french for decoration
10.Use oasis to make a grass field as a texture
Discussion of Design
the yarn dried, pop the balloon. You will get the yarn
middle part apart to make two wires. Next, cut one of the wires at the
center. Then peel plastic and use only 3 cm of copper inside the wire.
Third, combine a switch those wires by using copper then screw the
knot. Repeat step 2 with another wire. Forth, put the copper of second
wire inside the dimmer then screw the knot. Fifth, Cover the copper
and the dimmer with tape and make sure that it is completely stick. At
the both end of the wires, peel the cover out and combine one ending
with plug. At another ending of the wire, peel the plastic out and stick
the copper inside into a lamp in order to hide the remaining wire
