Calorimeter
|
Ever wonder how the calorie count was calculated for
the labels on the food you buy? The calorie’ is a measure of how much energy is in your food. A calorimeter is used to measure
these calories. You burn
calories and so does the calorimeter!

Radio
|
Crystal Radio Info
Radio technology is used
in several forms such as broadcasting, communication and wireless
networks. The radio we built at the
University of Utah is no different than the digitalized radios made today
except, ours do not require any external power source. Crystal radio uses the
energy of the radio waves sent by radio transmitters.

Electromyogram
|
Electromyogram Info
The biceps in the human
body are actually made of a large number of parallel fibers functionally
arranged into individual motor units. When each motor unit is activated by
nerve commands, from the nervous system, electrical impulses propagate down
the length of the fibers that make up the unit. Two neighboring electrodes
placed on the skin’s surface near the muscle will pick up different voltages
in the fringe regions of these electrical impulses

Sine Wave
|
Sine Wave Info
Sine waves are perhaps the most common type of waves
seen in Engineering, Physics, Mathematics and many other majors and probably one
of the most useful in terms of application. The three major properties which constitute a sine wave
are the amplitude ‘A’, phase ‘Ф’ and the frequency ‘f’. Variation of
any of these properties makes each sine wave distinct from each other.
