Myth Buster: Inductors

  The invention of inductors and the discovery of Lenzs law allowed us to  expand our mechanical and electrical systems to perform automatic  physical movements that respond to sensors and transmitters. As we  learned last week, motors and generators are inductive components that  provide physical movement and energy generation. Inductors also provide  wave-shaping and filtering responses […]

    1. How can wave energy help fix our current power crisis? Regardless of the season, waves are generated year-round at all times  of the day. This produces a potential for an unlimited zero-emission  energy alternative or substitute for the current energy power plants,  windmill technologies and solar panels. According to the US Energy Information […]

discuss situations in which there is an obstacle to applying your classmate’s troubleshooting technique. How would you overcome this obstacle?

    In this discussion, I would like to share with you an earlier  experience during my late teens on how to repair and diagnose faulty  guitar, speaker, power, microphone, and other small signal cables. I  refused to just throw them away. After acquiring some basic skills in  using VOM (volt-ohm-milliamp) meters, DVM, DMM (digital […]

discuss situations in which there is an obstacle to applying your classmate’s troubleshooting technique. How would you overcome this obstacle?

  Identify and explain one troubleshooting tip or technique.  One  method for troubleshooting method is reviewing your work, many times we  as humans will perform maintenance and we make errors, we are prone to  it. Reviewing our work is a good method to make sure that the issue is  not due to human error.   Identify […]
