Students view a graphical explanation of how the motor condition (unloaded, 50 percent loaded, fully loaded) affects the phase between voltage and current, the current draw from the AC supply, the amount of power consumed, and the power factor.
Learners review Ohm's Law and work 12 problems. 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.
Parallel Circuit Analysis Practice Problems: Circuit #5
In this interactive object, learners solve for total resistance and current, the current through each resistor, the voltage across each resistor, and the power dissipated by each resistor.
Automotive Electrical Systems: Ohm's Law Practice Problems #1
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.
Discharging Time Constants of an RC Circuit (Screencast)
In this animated object, learners examine how current, voltage and the discharging capacitor of a series RC changes during 5 time constants. A brief quiz completes the activity.
