Description: My partner and I built a sequence that could make a wave of LED lights. We used 330 ohm resistors and several LED lights to build this sequence. We made a series circuit with our resistors to create a pattern. We first experimented with trying to make many more LED's but then we did less and it worked better. We used the blinking light unit 1A code to control how often the lights blinks on and off and also to control the timing of each one. Altogether, this made a wave of LED strips.
Content:
Forces between static electric charges: Like charges repel each other; unlike charges attract. Thus, two negative charges repel one another, while a positive charge attracts a negative charge. The attraction or repulsion acts along the line between the two charges
Circuits (series and parallel): In a series circuit, all components are connected end-to-end to form a single path for current flow. parallel circuit, an electrical path that branches so that the current divides and only part of it flows through any branch.
current- Current is the rate at which electrons flow past a point in a complete electrical circuit.
voltage - voltage = pressure, and it is measured in volts (V).
resistance- Resistance is a measure of the opposition to current flow in an electrical circuit.
power - power, in science and engineering, time rate of doing work or delivering energy,
Reflection:
Good Things:
I think that my work ethic has improved greatly.
I think that during the project I managed my time well.
Bad things:
I think that I could have focused more.
I think that I could have collaborated better.
