In this interactive object, learners answer 25 questions regarding part or assembly drawings. The basic areas of blueprint reading are covered.

Learners examine the different types of lines used on a P&ID diagram and the types of connections they represent. They test their knowledge in a matching exercise.

Learners read an explanation of how the Magnetron Ignition System uses a solid state switching component, a step-up transformer, and magnetism to provide a high voltage spark in a one-cylinder combustion engine.

Learners review the three formulas for power and work 12 problems. In each of the problems, students are given two of the three variables (voltage, resistance, or current) and asked to solve for power. Immediate feedback is provided.

Learners work problems to make conversions between RMS, average, peak, and peak-to-peak AC voltages.

In this animated object, learners examine the formulas used to convert peak, RMS, average, and peak-to-peak AC voltages. A brief quiz completes the activity.

In this animated object, learners view the keystrokes on a TI-30XIIS calculator that are required to solve for the instantaneous voltage of a discharging RC circuit.

In this interactive and animated object, learners examine how dc voltages develop across capacitors that are connected in series and in parallel.

In this interactive and animated object, learners practice testing a diode. They determine if a diode is good, open, or shorted.
