- They would not be connected since the electrons have no way to travel through the rest of the circuit.
- The electrons would still flow through the other circuits and it would stay a complete circuit, but the other lights would have more electrons flowing through them since they can’t go through the other wire.
- the light bulb that’s in the series part of the circuit is brighter than the other light bulbs because it’s receiving more voltage than the other 2 light bulbs.
- I believe that the other light bulbs would be affected by increasing the amount of light going to the other light bulbs but it would have no effect on the circuit being complete
- In this project, I mostly did all the measuring and planning out the design for the house. I helped a little bit on the circuits but one of my group member had a stronger ability to make them and he preferred to make them so I let him do the circuits. If I could do one thing better I would probably help a little bit more on the circuits because they were a lot of fun to make.

- First Question. How do you create a homemade electrical switch?Answer: Take a piece of cardboard and insert two drawing pins in it. make a complete circuit using a bulb, a battery and wires. Cut one wire in the circuit and connect one on each drawing pins. Unfold a paper clip and hook one end of it to one of the drawing pins and then bend its other end upward above the other drawing pin. you will see that whenever you push the so that it touches the drawing pin below it, the bulb gets lighted.http://www.english-for-students.com/How-to-make-an-electrical-switch.htmlSecond Question. What is the difference between a parallel and a series circuit?Answer: In a series circuit, the current through each of the components is the same, and the voltage across the circuit is the sum of the voltages across each component. In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each of the components is the same, and the total current is the sum of the currents through each component.

- We mostly used our OneNote but for things that we couldn’t find on the OneNote we would either go on youtube or we would google it.
4. We looked over the first question answer and tried the method they posted and it worked. So obviously if my circuit was successful, that post was credible. For the second question I used Wikipedia but I looked at the references that they had each one looked like a credible source so I decided to use the information posted.
5. We had a really bad start to this project, but as we went on everyday we kept on doing more and more and in my opinion I think we did pretty good, the house wasn’t planned exactly how we wanted it, at first we wanted to add a basement but we realized that we needed way more time to do that so we started up a new idea and I still really like the house. If we could have done one thing better I think we should’ve just spent or time better and not goofed around for a few classes.
