About this episode

In this episode, we will learn about electricity and computers with questions from James, Daniel, Silas, Addalyn, and Caleb. We'll talk about how we make electricity using methods such as generators, water, wind, solar power, and burning fuels. We'll also explain how electricity travels through a cord into your gadgets. Plus, we'll look at how we make computers and the chips inside them, where they're made, and what we need to make them.
