Basically, the NPN sensor has three wires coming out of it and the gauge had an input of three wires, however, the gauge requires PNP not NPN, so i need to convet the NPN to output PNP

Hello All, I have a sensor which outputs an NPN signal, however, the gauge it connects to only inputs PNP signals, how can i convert the NPN to PNP? I have tried looking for circuit diagrams and simple converters but I have found nothing, all help appreciate. Thanks

As part of an assignment, I have been asked to construct a tower that is completely made of paper and sticky tape. This tower must be built with 4 specifications: 1. Must be built of nothing but paper and tape no cutting devices, glue, ect ect. 2. Must be built within 5 minutes. 3. Must be...

no z direction, nothing, that is what has me confused

I am given a table of values to calculate the volume of water in a lake. X(m) 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 Y(m) 10.2 39.1 56.9 43.2 28.5 17.7 9.8 Where X is intervals across the lake Where Y is depth of the lake in meters The aim is to work out the volume using a range of...

Thanks All, But how to we actually get from A=πy2 δx to ∫πf(x)2dx How does the area become the volume?

As part of an assignment on Approximating Areas and Volume I am asked to derive the equation shown in the image attached. The question reads: "It can be shown that if y = f(x) is revolved around the x-axis to form a solid between x=a and x=b then the volume of the solid is give by the...

Hello All, I have been giving a practical assignment to calculate how terminal velocity changes as the diamter of ball bears increase. I have chosed to use stokes law http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes%27_law to assist me with the prac. I required different sized ball bearing but must...

As part of my physics course I have to make something using electronic components so I have decided to make LED strips to fit inside a car. But I wish to make it fade in as I open the door and fade out as the door is closed. I have been looking up these things on youtube but can't seem to...

Hello All, I am currently working on DeMOIVRE's Theorem, but when i am converint from polar to complex and vice versa i alwats get my numbers as a decimal that is insanely long and i kno wfor a fact that its just the square root of something. Is there a way to program my calculator (Casio...

Thanks 2 you all, please keep them coming :)

Hello All, As part of my studies I am asked to write a five thousand word report on a topic of interest. I have a passion for engineering and was wondering if PF could help me with my assignment. I have chose to write it on 'Engineering Disasters' (on stuctures such as buildings, bridges...

Is it possible to use a dc powersupply instead? and by safely I was referring to use any AC powerpoints as although i have a safety switch and a self made fuse box to ensure safety for myself and the mains i would prefer using a transformer
