Steps:
1 Add a DC motor to rotate the windmill blades.
2 Connect a battery to power the motor.
3 Use a pushbutton to control the circuit (on/off).
Skills Practiced
n Connecting a DC motor, battery and pushbutton.
n Creating a simple circuit that powers the motor.
3. Final Testing
Task: Run the Tinkercad simulation to test if the motor powers the windmill blades when the
pushbutton is pressed.
Skills Practiced
n Using the Start Simulation feature in Tinkercad.
n Ensuring the motor runs and turns the windmill blades.
Outcome for Session 3
A working motor circuit that powers the windmill blades with a pushbutton control.
Final Deliverables
Tick ( ) the box if submitted:
n A 3D model of the windmill designed in Tinkercad.
n A Tinkercad Codeblock program that controls the windmill’s rotation.
n A working motor circuit in Tinkercad Circuits that powers the windmill blades.
