Press the switch to turn the light bulb on and off. Press the cutter to make the circuit stop working (the light bulb doesn't turn on anymore when you flick the switch) and turn it back to make the light bulb start working again. Let's talk about the science of this circuit. So, if you didn't know, this type of circuit is called a series circuit, this means that the circuit only has one path for the electricity to travel, unlike the parallel circuit which has multiple ways of travelling. Now, you might be asking "Well, how does the circuit work?" the circuit works because of negatively charged electrons and positively charged electrons travelling around the wires of the circuit. what the switch does is basically detach the wire and attach it again, this causes the wire to cut apart and break the circuit's route to travel through the wires, and then if you put it back on, the circuit will start moving again. Now, for the cutter, It cuts through the wires fully and stops the electrons from travelling through the wires. Despite that I made the cutter be able to uncut the wires in this project, it obviously can't do that in real life. I hope you learned something from this project even though this is a pretty simple topic.
thanks to a coding teacher of mine for helping with some of the starting code, as well as providing me with the clipart that I used in here.
