Pinball Wizard – How to make a Bulb Light Up!

 What did you learn from the experiment?

I learned how to make an experiment and how it can take a while to make it, I also learned that working and sharing your ideas with your group can be important. I learned that working with electricity  can also be tough like working with magnets, circuits, nails and electromagnets can all be really tough to work with! Also, that you need to be  patient with yourself and think big! I learned that the wire gets really hot when you are close to making the bulb light up (from a circuit) and that when the circuit is really cold you are not close at all so you need to keep trying!  It applies to a Pinball machine because when you work on making it really tough (because you are dealing with electricity) and you need to be patient with yourself when you are making it like say that you were making the load or something you would need to be patient with yourself and while you are working with a group say with a pinball machine that you work with new ideas and share them! I also learned to make a Light bulb light up, heres how: To make a circuit light up first of all you need all of the right materials a battery, a battery holder, a mini light bulb, 2 wires and a light bulb holder!  Then you take the battery and you put it into the battery holder and then after that you take the light bulb holder and you take the light bulb and put it in the light bulb holder then you take 1 wire and you put it into the light bulb holder, wrap it once and then you take the other side of the wire and you put that side into the battery and twist that once and if the light bulb is not going on then screw it on tighter then you have a lit up light bulb that YOU lit up!

How does it apply to a Pinball machine?

It can apply to a Pinball machine because you could use a circuit to make the Pinball machine say something like game over when you lose, or when you start you could use it to say something like “ Game On!”
