    Output

                      In the dimmer circuit activity, the output consists of:
                          LED Brightness Control: The brightness of the LED can be adjusted smoothly

                         from dim to bright by turning the potentiometer.

                      Concepts

                      The dimmer circuit shows how we can control the brightness of an LED using
                      a potentiometer to change the amount of current flowing through it. Other

                      components, like the resistor and diode, help protect the circuit and ensure it
                      works correctly.

                      Observations

                          Adjustable Brightness: As the potentiometer is turned, the brightness of

                         the LED changes gradually, demonstrating the effect of varying resistance
                         on current flow.

                          No  Flickering: The  LED lights steadily  without  flickering  when  the
                         potentiometer is adjusted slowly, showing smooth control over brightness.

                          Component Functionality: Each component can be observed to perform its

                         specific role in the circuit, such as the LED lighting up and the potentiometer
                         effectively controlling the brightness.
