Circuit: Loop of conductive material from a positive to a negative side
Power (p): Speed of energy transfer through circuits. p = iv Watts (W)
Coulomb's Law: the force of attraction or repulsion proportional to their charges and inversely proportional to the distance between them squared. F = kq1q2/r^2
Resistance (r): How much the current is slowed. Ohms (Ω)
Charge: The level (amount) of electricity
Voltage (V): PE difference from one side of a component to the other.Volts (V)
Current (i): Flow of electricity through the circuit. Amps (A)
Ohm's Law: Voltage is equal to current times resistance. V= ir
Parallel Circuit: Circuit that branches off into separate paths
Series Circuit: Circuit with only one path and multiple components
My greatest takeaway from coding is that every letter has its job. What I mean is that spelling and wording matter greatly. If you are missing a letter or word, the code will not do its job and you will be left confused.
I believe that I did particularly well in collaboration and critical thinking during this project. I worked with my partner and another group to first practice coding, and then design and build our own project. I believe that there were multiple points during the project where it became very confusing, instead of shutting down, I persevered and continued to think about how I could alter the design. Two areas in which I believe that I could work on are communication and creativity. I believe that my partner and I could have had better communication and done more on the project creatively with more time.
