In this 3D animated object, learners examine the way in which a three-phase generator produces three sine waves with three armature coils. A quiz completes the activity.
In this animated object, learners examine the mechanical configuration of a three-way switch and how it operates in a circuit. They also view diagrams showing the use of an ohmmeter to determine the electrical connections.
Learners view the waveforms and voltages of an Edison Three-Wire System and read a description of the polarities across the secondary of the center-tap transformer. This transformer supplies power to residential homes.
In this interactive object, learners examine the characteristics of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoporosis. Students then describe the precautions to be aware of when working with clients who have arthritis and identify assistive devices that clients might use to prevent injuries at home.
In this interactive object, learners change the amount of money received from tax revenue and the amount spent on federal programs as they calculate how fiscal policy affects the gross domestic product (GDP), unemployment, inflation, the annual deficit, the national debt, and interest on the national debt.
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.
