The resistance of LDR increases when light is not available (or is limited). And the resistance drops when Light is abundant.
This principle can be used in proximity detectors where one or more light source(s) is/are active. When a person / object comes in proximity of the source, the light gets reflected from the object-surface & can now be received by LDR. So due to proximity of the object, resistance of LDR changes - this can be used to trigger different actions like open the door, trigger a motor. Fire an alarm. etc.
Resistance of LDR varies according to intensity of incident light over it,It is used in street light to detect day/night and turn on/off the street light automatically
LDR stands for Light Dependent Resistor. It is a type of resistor that changes its resistance based on the amount of light that falls on it. This change in resistance allows LDRs to be used in light-sensitive applications, such as automatic lighting controls.
J.B. Gunn is credited with the invention of the light dependent resistor in the early 20th century. It was initially developed for military applications during World War II.
Independent variable: the number of cells in the circuit. Dependent variable: the current measured by the ammeter. Control variable: resistance of the resistor, type of light bulb.
The symbol for Light-Dependent Resistor (LDR) is a resistor symbol with photo-sensitive material added to one side. It looks like a regular resistor with one side having a shaded area to represent its light sensitivity.
A Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) is used in various applications to detect the presence or absence of light. It is commonly used in automatic lighting systems, camera exposure controls, and streetlights to adjust the intensity of light based on the surrounding conditions.
using a variable resistor we can adjust the sensitivity of a light dependent resistor
yes, a variable resistor
An LDR is a Light dependent resistor.

The function of an LDR or light dependent resistor is to change the brightness of the light based weather conditions or light hitting the object the LDR is on. When it is darker out, the light does not shine as brightly.

a resistor , two multimeter ,
As light falls on the conductor then emission of electrons would increase the conductivity and so its resistivity decreases. Such a conductor is known as light dependent resistor.
