The learner will understand the design of a planetary gear drive and its advantages and disadvantages.

In this interactive object, learners read about the differences between push and pull manufacturing systems. A brief quiz completes the activity.

Learners review Ohm's Law and then work 12 problems to help them apply the law to automotive electrical systems. 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.

Learners examine the circuitry in a DC variable speed drive that prevents the motor from running at 0 rpm or at maximum speed under certain conditions.

Explore Intrusion Detection Systems, what they are, how they're configured, and the types of protection the provide.

In this animated activity, learners examine the firing circuits in a DC variable speed drive. The circuits cause the current flow through the armature and rpm to vary. This activity has audio content.

In a series of practice problems, learners use the substitution method to solve systems of linear equations, also called "simultaneous linear equations."

Learners review Ohm's Law and then work 12 problems to help them apply the law to automotive electrical systems. 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.

The learner will gain an understanding of the inner workings of the cycloidal gear drive while watching a video and listening to an explanation of its features.

In this interactive and animated object, learners examine the SUN VAT-40 battery starting and charging system tester. This learning object demonstrates the use of the tester in diagnosing conventional 12-volt automotive charging systems. It contains audio.

Learners read an introduction to the four basic types of force systems for a statically determinate condition.

In a series of practice problems, learners use the addition or subtraction method to solve systems of linear equations, also called "simultaneous linear equations."

Learners review Ohm's Law and then work 12 problems to help them apply the law to automotive electrical systems. 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.

Learners examine the relationship of voltage, current, and resistance as it applies to vehicle electrical systems.

Learners view an animated explanation of why an adjustment of the output voltage by an AC drive is required to maintain a constant torque as the frequency is varied.

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.

Students follow steps to determine the number of inputs that can be driven by a specific IC. A sample problem is given.

Robotic welding is revolutionizing welder safety, efficiency, and technique. Knowing how to program a robotic welder is key in this ever-changing industry. In this module you’ll explore what Through-Arc Seam Tracking (TAST) is, discover how it works, and see it applied on the job.

In this animated lesson, students view the operation of an electromechanical relay. A brief quiz concludes the activity.

In this animated activity, students view a step-by-step approach for how to connect an ammeter to a circuit. A brief quiz concludes the lesson.
