1. Connect the light control switch transistor kit to a 6 V direct current power supply.
2. Switch on the power supply and observe whether the LED lights up.
3. Then, cover the LDR with a finger. Observe whether the LED lights up.
Discussion:
1. Explain your observations:
(a) after the power supply is switched on
(b) while the LDR is covered with a finger
2. How does the transistor function as an automatic light control switch?
