In this animated and interactive object, learners study the synchronous rotational speed of the magnetic field created by the stator of an AC Motor.

Learners study factors that affect the synchronous speed of an AC motor: the applied AC frequency and the number of stator poles.

Learners examine the speed control circuits in a DC variable speed drive that cause the RPM of a motor to vary. This activity has audio content.

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.

In this animated object, learners study what happens if the maximum switching speed of a proximity sensor is exceeded.

Students examine the operation of synchronous and asynchronous inputs on a JK Flip-Flop.

Learners identify the advantages and disadvantages of four versions of high speed Ethernet. A short quiz completes the activity.

In this learning activity you'll observe how switches are used in local area networks to increase data transmission speeds.

In this animated object, learners study how the internal parts of an AC synchronous motor interact with magnetic fields to cause rotation. A short quiz completes the activity.

This document is a visual and text description of lathe speed and feed settings.

In this screencast, learners examine why the piston of a hydraulic cylinder extends slower than it retracts. A brief quiz completes the activity.

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

The student takes a quiz on lathe cutting speeds and RPM calculations.

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.

Students view the formula for determining twist drill speeds in metal.

In this document you'll review an overview of cutting speeds and RPM calculations.

This video will walk through how to calculate speeds and feeds for drilling parts on a milling machine.

In this animated object, learners use an algebraic formula to solve the following problem: An airplane travels a certain distance with the wind in the same amount of time that it takes to travel a shorter distance against the wind. Given a constant wind speed, what is the speed of the plane without a wind?

In this animated activity, learners examine the circuitry in a DC variable speed drive that keeps the motor running at a constant speed as the load varies.

This review tests the student's knowledge of cutting speeds and RPM calculations for drilling machines.
