1. Characterizing Electrolytic Materials

   31 Mar 2021 | | Contributor(s):: Steven Kandel, NNCI Nano

    The lab is designed to help students understand that the resistance of an object depends on length, cross-sectional area, and the type of material. Students measure the current through objects to see that different materials resist current in different amounts. Students will find that,...

2. Circuit Elements

   17 Feb 2012 | | Contributor(s):: Emmanuel Jose Ochoa, Stella Quinones

   Understand the dependence of resistance, R, inductance, L, and capacitance, C, on physical dimensions and material properties.

3. Delta-Wye

   17 Apr 2012 | | Contributor(s):: Robert Benjamin Post, Stella Quinones

   Convert from Delta to Wye configuration for resistances, and vice versa.

4. Impedance Adder

   28 Feb 2012 | | Contributor(s):: Emmanuel Jose Ochoa, Stella Quinones

   Understand how to calculate the equivalent impedance of circuit elements combined in parallel and/or series, and understand equivalent impedance calculations in rectangular and polar form.

5. Ohms Law

   24 Apr 2012 | | Contributor(s):: Robert Benjamin Post, Stella Quinones

   Calculate and observe the relationship between current, voltage, resistance, and power.

6. Resistor Color Code

   10 Feb 2012 | | Contributor(s):: Robert Benjamin Post, Stella Quinones

   Apply the color code to determine the resistance value of a resistor or input a resistance value and determine the color code of the resistor.

7. Series and Parallel

   17 Feb 2012 | | Contributor(s):: Emmanuel Jose Ochoa, Stella Quinones

   Examine the resistance, R, inductance, L, or capacitance, C, of multiple elements in series or in parallel.
