In this animated object, learners observe the changes inside the DC shunt motor that could cause the motor to break apart when its field coil opens. A short quiz completes the activity.
Transistor Fundamentals: Junction Field Effect Transistor (JFET)
Students read about the common characteristics of the Junction Field Effect Transistor. They also explore the schematic symbols and the basic operation of the JFET.
In this animated object, students view an explanation of how current, voltage, and the magnetic field strength of a series RL circuit change during five time constants. A brief quiz completes the activity.
In this animated learning object, students examine current, voltage, and the magnetic field strength of a series RL circuit while it is de-energizing during five time constants. A quiz completes the activity.
In this animated activity, learners study the principle behind an inductor producing a high momentary voltage while its magnetic field collapses. A short quiz concludes the lesson.
Learners read about the types of clothing considered appropriate for a school setting. This activity is designed for students enrolled in an instructional assistant program.
This animated guide presents an FAA map and aerial photos showing various areas of interest to student pilots enrolled in flight training at FVTC Aviation at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, WI. The airport is the site of the annual Experimental Aircraft Association's AirVenture Oshkosh. This object has sound.
In this screencast, learners examine the interaction between a conductor that represents a motor armature and a magnetic field that represents a motor’s main field. This interaction causes the shaft to turn.
In this animated activity, learners study how the magnetic field of an armature can distort the DC motor's main magnetic field. A brief quiz completes the object.
In this animated object, learners examine how the rotation of an induction AC motor's armature slips behind the synchronous rotational speed of the stator's field to create magnetic fields. These fields interact and produce torque. A quiz completes the activity.
Single-Phase Motors: Introduction to Phase-Splitting
Learners will understand how the interaction of the armature magnetic field and the rotating stator field cause the rotor of a single-phase AC motor to turn.
Accounting Careers and Titles: Areas of Specialization
Learners read about the different kinds of positions available in the accounting field at private corporations, government agencies, and not-for-profit organizations.
Learners examine an animation that shows how an AC voltage is produced as an armature rotates within a magnetic field. Ten review questions complete the learning object.
In this animated lesson, learners examine the rectifier circuitry in a DC variable speed drive that supplies the voltages to the field coil and armature.
