Best Answer

You have to install a device known as a "clapper" into your receptacle outlet. Plug your lamp into this device. It is sound activated. When you clap your hands the device senses the frequency of the clap and activated its internal circuitry. This closes a relay that supplies voltage to the lamp and it turns on.

What type of a circuit do flashlights use?

A flashlight is a series circuit. The batteries positive end connects to the flashlights switch. The switch connects to the center pin of the light bulb. The bulb filament is connected to the center pin of the bulb and the outer metal shell of the bulb socket. The shell of the bulb socket is connected to the metal flashlight's body which returns to the negative end of the battery. Turn on the switch and you have light.


How do you draw aparallelciurcut with 2 light bulbs and a closed switch that controls one light?

Draw two parallel vertical lines on a piece of paper. Visualize these as a left side and a right side of an upright ladder. The left side will be called the "hot" wire and the right side will be the neutral wire. The cross pieces in this diagram will be the rungs of the ladder. Draw a line from the left hand side of the ladder to the right hand side of the ladder. Insert into this rung one of the two light bulbs. Below this rung copy the above rung with the second light bulb. Into this second rung insert a switch in series with the second bulb. When the complete circuit is powered on the first bulb will light and depending on the position of the switch in the second rung, the second bulb will light if the switch is closed. If the switch in the second rung is open the bulb will not light. This will be the drawing that your scenario suggests.


What is clap switch?

What do you need to make a simple series circuit to light a bulb?

To make a simple series circuit to light a bulb, the simplest components are a power source (such as a battery); a switch (to turn the power on or off); the bulb (obviously !); and some wires to connect everything together.


Why will the bulb not light up in a short circuit?

That's because the path of the short circuit provides a much lower resistance than the actual path and which the current will choose to flow through the path with a lower resistance rather than the path connected to a bulb,which explains that why the bulb won't light up.

What is on off switch?

Say it is a power circuit, a light bulb is bright from the battery, flowing through the wires and the light bulb. There is a switch controling the power that goes through, so if you switched the off switch off, the power will no longer be flowing through(the light bulb wouldn't be bright any longer).
