# glowing pendulum quiz
construct a pendulum that glows using acceleration #LED #number #math #acceleration #docs
## Name
## Directions
Use this activity document to guide your work in the [glowing pendulum tutorial](/microbit/lessons/glowing-pendulum/tutorial)
Answer the questions while completing the tutorial. Pay attention to the dialogues!
## 1. Why are you creating a 'forever' loop?
<br/>
## 2. Write the line of code to measure the acceleration with respect to the "y" axis and store this value in a local variable called 'acceleration'.
<br/>
## 3. After storing the acceleration in a variable, write the code to take the absolute value of the acceleration, and store this value inside 'acceleration'.
<br/>
## 4. Write the code that uses the acceleration value from question #3 to set the brightness on the BBC micro:bit.
<br/>
## 5. Write the code that tuns all the LEDs on (as the image displays below)
