Florida International University Introduction In a technology-driven world, understanding electronics fundamentals is an essential skill that will allow you to harness the power of innovation. Learning to build simple circuits is like acquiring a set of creative tools that allow you to transform abstract concepts into tangible electronic systems. This project into the realm of circuitry begins with unraveling the mysteries behind essential electronic components and their interactions. Imagine having the ability to control the flow of electricity, shine lights, and create devices that respond to your commands. It all starts with understanding the basic principles of voltage, current, and resistance. As you dig deeper, you'll realize that building circuits isn't just about wires and components; it is a dynamic process of problem-solving and experimentation. You'll learn to analyze circuit diagrams, assemble components on a board, and troubleshoot along the way. With each new circuit you build, you'll discover a new layer of understanding about how electronic devices work. You will witness the transformation of abstract concepts into concrete reality and gain the confidence to bring your own ideas to life.

Florida International University Conclusions In conclusion, the phenomenon that light becomes less bright as resistance increases is a direct consequence of Ohm's Law and the behavior of electrical circuits. Ohm's law states that the current flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage across it and inversely proportional to its resistance. The capacitor plays a fundamental role in this game, when you turn off the switch, the red light turns off more slowly than normal because the capacitor makes that the light become less and less bright until the last second turns off completely. When resistance in a circuit increases, the flow of electrons is more opposite, leading to a reduction in the overall current through the circuit. In practical terms, this phenomenon is exemplified in everyday scenarios such as dimmer switches, where the user can control the brightness of a light source by altering the resistance in the circuit. This ability to modulate brightness by adjusting resistance underscores the intrinsic connection between electrical resistance and the luminosity of light-emitting devices. How difficult was this assignment? Honestly wasn’t that difficult since is a basic circuit, but it was fun and to be honest, the project with more fun than I ever had since am I was at FIU. How did you overcome challenges? I tried my best to install and connect all the wires in a good position being aware of connecting the ground on the negative side and the 5V power on the positive side, and also connecting the last wire that close the circuit which is the black wire connected in the negative side.
