CHALLENGE CHAIN
In a circuit with a battery, light bulb, slideswitch and DC motor, imagine one wire is damaged or
disconnected. Explain what will happen to the bulb and motor if the circuit is not complete.
ECOTECH Robots in waste management facilities use electricity to power motors and sensors, allowing
ENERGY them to autonomously sort recyclable materials, reducing human intervention and increasing
efficiency in recycling processes.
