FLASHER

1. Apart from railway crossings, where are Flashing Lights used?

2. Using a ruler and pencil, neatly draw the circuit diagram for this project.
Label all components.

FLASHER

HOW IT WORKS
3. Why does one Capacitor charge faster than the other?
4. When this Capacitor charges, where will current flow to?
5. When the Transistor turns on, what does it prevent?
6. What causes the Transistor to turn off?
7. What happens when the Transistor turns off?
8. What determines the time that it takes for this charge/discharge cycle?
9. What is the charge/discharge time called?
10. What would you do next time to improve this project?
