Question 1

What is a circuit?

Answer 1

A closed path that allows electricity to flow from a power source, through various components, and back to the source.

Question 2

What is the flow of current in a circuit?

Answer 2

Current flows from the positive terminal of the power source to the negative terminal.

Question 3

What must a circuit have for it to function?

Answer 3

A closed loop.

Question 4

List the steps to wire a circuit.

Answer 4

• Identify the power source (e.g., Arduino or battery)
• Connect components like LEDs, resistors, or buzzers
• Use wires to link all components in a closed loop
• Ensure current flows through each component in the correct order.

Question 5

What is a breadboard?

Answer 5

A tool for building and testing circuits without soldering.

Question 6

What are the horizontal rows on a breadboard typically used for?

Answer 6

Power (red for positive, blue for negative).

Question 7

What do the vertical rows in the middle of a breadboard do?

Answer 7

Connect components and wires.

Question 8

What is the first step to connect a breadboard and Arduino?

Answer 8

Connect the Arduino’s GND pin to the negative rail (blue line) on the breadboard.

Question 9

What is the second step to connect a breadboard and Arduino?

Answer 9

Connect the Arduino’s 5V pin to the positive rail (red line) on the breadboard.

Question 10

Fill in the blank: The horizontal rows at the top and bottom of a breadboard are typically used for _______.

Answer 10

[power].

Question 11

What should you do after placing components like LEDs or buzzers on the breadboard?

Answer 11

Use wires to complete the circuit between the Arduino pins and the components.
