In this animated object, learners examine the factors that determine how well a capacitive proximity sensor can detect an object. Those factors include size, position, and the materials from which the target is made. A brief quiz completes the activity.
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.
This animated lesson shows how a photoelectric sensor, connected to a ladder circuit, causes the cylinder of a hydraulic circuit to extend and retract.
Body Sections and Divisions of the Abdominal Pelvic Cavity
In this animated activity, learners examine how organs are visualized in three dimensions. The terms “longitudinal,” “cross,” “transverse,” “horizontal,” and “sagittal” are defined. Students test their knowledge of the location of abdominal pelvic cavity organs in two drag-and-drop exercises.
In this learning activity, you will learn what supply chain management is, four main links that make up the supply chain, and explore examples of how effective supply chain management works.
Learners read an explanation of how to connect two 7485 ICs to compare binary numbers by creating an 8-bit comparator. Diagrams and charts are presented.
In this animated lesson, the learner examines how a ladder circuit causes the cylinder of a hydraulic circuit to make a single extension and retraction.
Learners read an explanation of how the Magnetron Ignition System uses a solid state switching component, a step-up transformer, and magnetism to provide a high voltage spark in a one-cylinder combustion engine.
Transfer Functions: The RC High Pass Filter with Bode Plot
Students view the development of the transfer function for a RC high pass filter. They also read how a Bode plot is developed through simple approximation techniques for both the magnitude and phase.
