3.  The light sensor detects the amount of                             in the environment.

                     4.   Combining a servo motor and a light sensor creates an                              system
                          that reacts to changes in light.

                     5.  In a robotic hand, a servo motor controls the movement of each                             .

                 C. State whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F).

                     1.  A servo motor spins continuously like a regular motor.

                     2.  You can program a micro:bit to control a servo motor using
                          blocks in the MakeCode editor.

                     3.  A light sensor measures the amount of heat in the environment.

                     4.   A micro:bit can combine sensor data with motor control to
                          automate systems like shading systems.

                     5.  The servo motor cannot maintain its position once it moves to a
                          specific angle.

                   1. Scenario 1

                        You are building a smart window system for a greenhouse. The system needs
                       to automatically open or close the shades depending on sunlight. Explain how
                       you would use a micro:bit, a light sensor, and a servo motor to achieve this,

                       and describe the logic you would implement in the code.
                   2. Scenario 2

                       A robotic hand uses several servo motors to control its fingers. If one of the
                       servo motors controlling a finger receives incorrect angle signals, how would

                       that affect the operation of the robotic hand, and how could you troubleshoot
                       the issue using micro:bit?
