Hello all,
As some of you might know already from the mesh analysis questions I have posted, I'm trying to learn more about circuits, which will lead to a Science Olympiad competition ultimately.
The only problem is that I have little experience to working with circuits. I mean, little, as in basically none. I have requested help from my science teacher, but the only resources she has are a lot of galvanometers of various amplitudes, and some other very basic stuff. The only problem is that she's missing resistors, and stuff like breadboard. Now I talked over my problem with my sister, who did say (she's in college) that she might be able to ask her professor. However, I think it's a better idea that I buy a simple kit to get started.
I'm wondering what I should buy (we do not have a vehicle at our disposal so preferably it'd be online), and even suggestions as to where to learn more about this subject in general (practical usage of circuits and stuff).
Any help whatsoever is greatly appreciated. If I have posted this in the wrong section, please let me know, as I do not mean to break any rules.
Thanks again!
EDIT: Also, I forgot to mention - I need something that's cheap and basic less than 100 dollars for sure.
