Circuit Light bulb Ra battery Rb LDR
Circuit concept • The circuit senses the ambience of light and depending on the presence/absence of sufficient ambience light. it turns the bulb on/off automatically The bulb gets on when there is insufficient ambience, and switches off when enough ambience is present • This circuit does its job automatically without manual operation
LDR • Light dependent resistor A resistor that act upon light exposure. The circuit symbol is box with a circle . When light falls on the LDR, the resistance, hence the voltage coming across it is decreasing.
How it works • During daytime, when light falls on LDR,the resistance of LDR decreases.the decrement of resistance causes more potential to the other resistor .the potential of across LDR is directly transmitted , because of the low potential difference, across base and emitter, one of them goes cutoff restricting any flow of current from collector to emitter, turning the lightbulb
