Students are working in designing first the code program used in raun gauge model and then joining the circuits accordingly. They got the correct connections and the led glows… https://stemgames.metastudio.org/uploads/default/original/2X/8/822473e8b4e807c85fee917a76c9122a071d7366.mp4

What are the components called?
What are their functions?
What is the function of this electric circuit?
Does a drawn electric circuit have another more commonly used name /names?
Can you explain how this works?

The components used in this circuit and their functions-
LED- A light emitting diode is a small lightning device made of semi conductor. When it glows , it indicates that the circuit is complete and working.
HALL EFFECT SENSOR- It is a device that senses the presence of a magnetic field and lights up an LED connected to it. (This gives digital results i.e output comes as either high or low)
2 resistors-10Hz , 470 ohms

FUNCTION OF ELECTRIC CIRCUIT
This circuit establishes a relation between the rain gauge setup and the output device.
During rainfall, water falls on the catchment area and gets collected in one of the 2 tipping bucket . When it gets full, it tilts to one side. When it tilts the small magnet attached to it moves. This movement of the magnet is sensed by the Hall effect sensor and the LED ,lights up. We get an output which is recorded in the monitor.

sorry, please read 10hz as 10Kohm

Hertz is not a measure of resistance. That is a mistake.
But mistakes are a great learning tool
What physical parameter is represented by Hertz?

The unit of resistance is ohm
Frequency is measured in terms of Hertz
Thank you sir for your wise words😃

No need to apologise. Mistakes are an integral part of learning. At the maker lab we make a several of them everyday. The important part is to correct the mistake, which you have done.
