Day 2: In which I learn about the Multimeter and use it in the study of electronics

 Before today I had never used a Multimeter. To my delight it was very easy to use and was very useful as well. We used the tool to measure the voltage for different electronics and to measure resistors.

After we practiced different ways to use the tool, we found yet another way. This time we took a light sensor and we found the maximum and minimum resistance we could make using a flashlight and putting it in the dark.

We also used the breadboards again to test what happens when you use different resistors. I found that the higher rated resistors made the LED light dimmer. Above, from left to right are the 100, 1000, and 10000 ohm resistors. And accordingly, you can see the light going from light to dim. After this, we used the potentiometer to put the LED light on a 'dimmer switch'. Unfortunately, I failed to take a picture of this. It was pretty cool if I do say so myself.
