Capacitors -
A capacitor is like a big bucket,
it stores up charge, waits until
its full and then releases it all
in one go. How much charge
depends on the size of the
capacitor, measured in farads.
Battery Clip -
The battery clip allows a 9 volt
battery to power the circuit. The
battery can only connect in one
direction with the red wire being
positive and the black wire nega-
tive.
Potentiometer -
A potentiometer is a resistor that
you can control! Turning the knob
on the potentiometer increases
and decreases the amount of re-
sistance bit like a tap and the flow
of water.
Breadboard -
No soldering required! A
breadboard allows you to build
circuits without having to solder
due to its rows and columns each
with contacts that allow current to
flow through a regimented grid.
This makes it perfect for playing
and prototyping your projects.
