Wiring Components

How do you wire the positive side of the battery to the breadboard?

• Hover over red terminal of battery
• Click on hole next to "+" symbol
• Hover over breadboard
• Click on wire and change color

How do you wire the negative side of the battery to the breadboard?

• Hover over black terminal of battery
• Click on hole next to "-" symbol
• Hover over breadboard
• Click on wire and change color

What should you do after wiring the positive and negative sides of the battery?

• Test the buttons on the breadboard
• Adjust the volume on your computer
• Click the Start Simulation button
• Continue to the next step

What happens when you click on the buttons on the breadboard during the simulation?

• The sound is muted
• Each switch is triggered
• The circuit is powered off
• The buttons become unresponsive

What should you do if you want to change the color of a wire while it is selected?

• Deselect the wire and select again
• Press the shift key and click a button
• Use the inspector to change the color
• Type a number on the keyboard

How can you cycle between wire colors when a wire is selected?

• Type any number on the keyboard
• Press the shift key and click a button
• Use the inspector to change the color
• Deselect the wire and select again

What does pressing the shift key and clicking a button on the breadboard do during the simulation?

• The sound is muted
• The button becomes unresponsive
• The circuit is powered off
• The button stays pressed

What is a pro-tip for wire color selection?

• Hovering over the breadboard
• Using the inspector to change the color
• Typing 0 gives a black wire
• Clicking on the buttons repeatedly

What can you do if you want a button to stay pressed during the simulation?

• Press the shift key while clicking
• Press the button again to release it
