My breadboard circuits worked very well. My first led burnt out because I grabbed the wrong resistor but other than that everything went very smoothly and worked well. I had to catch up on the first assignment because I had forgot about it but caught up on it and then did my current project of making a parallel circuit and it worked great and I tested it out by taking the LEDS one at a time to make sure the electricity would still flow through the circuit and the other lights wouldn’t go out. overall I had fun making the breadboard circuits. 🙂

My electroscope
My electroscope worked quite well. I used the balloon and rubbed it against a sweatshirt for about 20 minutes and that gave me a lot of electrons to move the tin foil around a lot. I also used an old cookie jar for my container and it was a cool sight to watch.
My reinforced cube
The way I reinforced my cube is different than usual. Because instead of using 2 toothpicks together made another square that was a bit smaller so it would fit 1 toothpick across. Then I put that square inside of the cube and reinforced it that way. So that is how i reinforced my cube
My beam
I built just a regular I beam and it held up very well. But after a while it started to rack then it snapped. That shows if the weight is a little to far to one side it can really destroy a shape  maybe if the I beam had a little more supports on the side they could of probably prevented the racking from happening.
