This learning object describes the production of an alternating current in a generator with a single-loop armature. An illustration of how a sine wave is produced is shown through animation.
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.
Dental x-rays are generated in the dental x-ray tube. Through this animated learning object, students will learn the steps in x-ray generation from turning on the x-ray unit to exposing the dental x-ray film.
