Line Type Identification

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 develop 3D visualization skills by examining front, side, and top orthographic views of objects. Using this information, students select the corresponding isometric view of each object.

In this interactive learning object, students view the ammeter connections for measuring currents in a parallel circuit with three branches on an energy concepts lab board. A brief quiz completes the activity.

Learners read how the RL high pass filter is developed. The transfer function is used in Excel to graph the Vout. The circuit is also simulated in Electronic WorkBench and the resulting Bode plot is compared to the graph from Excel.

Understand the pseudocode structure of variable declarations

In this animated activity, learners examine the difference between opens and shorts in an electrical circuit. A brief quiz completes the object.

The learner will be able to represent steady-state AC sinusoidal signals using phasors, which will lead to a simplified technique of analyzing AC circuits in a very similar way that we analyze DC circuits.

In this learning activity you'll review how a short affects current flow and voltage in a series circuit.

In this animated activity, learners read about the types of lines found on blueprints. A quiz completes the activity.

Learners will test their ability to read a depth micrometer in this interactive quiz.

Learners examine how to multiply the gate propagation delay by the gate power dissipation to find the speed-power product. Examples are shown.

Learners review Ohm's Law and then work 12 problems. In each of the problems, students are given two of the three variables (voltage, resistance, or current) and are asked to solve for the third.

In this animated and interactive object, learners examine the formula for horsepower and work practice problems.

Students complete 10 practice problems. These deal with the determination of series current, zener current, and load current, and if the zener diode is operating in the breakdown region.

Decimals to Fractions

In this interactive object, learners determine the Vp, Vp-p, Vrms, Vavg, and the frequency of a sine wave displayed on an oscilloscope screen.

Learners examine the differences and similarities between hydraulic and pneumatic systems.

In this screencast, learners examine the construction of a 7493 IC as mod-2 and mod-8 up-counters. They view how this binary counter can be modified to operate at different modulus counts.

In this animated activity, learners examine the operation of hydraulic directional control valves and the internal components that divert the fluid.

Learners view the operation of an NPN transistor in the active region.

In this animated object, learners examine how the way in which a rheostat is connected in series with other resistors causes current and voltage to change as the resistance is varied. A brief quiz completes the activity.

Learners compare electromagnetic quantities with the voltage, current, and resistance quantities of an electrical circuit. A brief quiz completes the object.

Learners read how inches of water column is used as a unit of pressure measurement. Practical applications and a conversion formula to psi are included.

In this animated activity, learners examine the three main segments of a hydraulic system: power supply, control, and output. A brief quiz completes the learning object.
