For You To Do
  1. The stripe colors on the 100 K resistor are brown - black - yellow, and those on the 10 K resistor are brown - black - orange. Here are capacitor markings:
    0.001 μf : 102
    0.01 μf : 103
    0.220 μf : 224
  2. a) The pin at the bottom left is pin 1; from there, pin numbers increase counterclockwise.
  3. Be sure wires are pushed completely into sockets (about 3 mm).
  4. Student activity.
  5. Student activity.
  6. Student activity.
  7. Student activity.
  8. a) A tone sounds.
  9. a - b) the larger the capacitor, the lower the tone.
    c) Switching the two resistors produces a lower tone.
    d) Switching the two resistors changes the quality of the sound.
  10. a) To make the sound as low as possible, use the largest capacitor and the resistors switched as in Step 15.
    b) When you touch the speaker, you feel vibration.
