I am planning to do a small project based on piezoelectric effect.
The idea is to sandwich a piezoelectric crystal in-between metal plates and use it as a school bell or a small calling bell. I am planning to use a battery (need not be full, which holds charge enough to ring the bell for the...
I was trying to make a paper on synchronizing alternators. If I can monitor the amplitude phase and frequency of two generators, then I thought that I could synchronize them using a differential amplifier or a simple logic gate.
For amplifiers and gate to work I wanted a low voltage waveform...
Is there a way in electrical engineering where I can convert
230 KV to 5 V such that the 5 V wave has same amplitude, phase and frequency as that of 230 KV.
Can I use the piezo-electric crystal to charge a small battery and connect the battery to a load.
The problem here is that the battery has to supply current to the load for a short period. Then it has to be recharged by the crystal. will I be able to use the same battery for charging and...
Is there a way to convert light energy to a sound energy?
I read an article and the URL is http://www.photonics.com/Article.aspx?AID=52646
It is described that nano material lenses are used.
Is there a much simpler way that I convert light to sound?
I still have a doubt. Assume a bus is moving at some speed. A small generator is connected on one side of a wheel. W watt of power is obtained. If another generator is connected on the other side of the same wheel would the output be the same W watt.
Assume that the mechanical input is x when...
Recently I heard about using exercise bikes to generate electricity. It is more or less like a bi-cycle fixed in a training stand. They convert the rotation of the wheel into electrical energy.
The scenario is that they take some W watt of power from that model. In their case a disc like...
I am not exactly sure. But, Assume that the material I want to sustain vibrations is A. A is sandwiched between an another material B. I initiate the process by striking B, so that the vibrations are transferred to A. I do this because when I directly strike A, Vibrations induces is very less...
I just want to transfer the vibrations produced from a material to another material. Like for example, I want to sandwich a material in between two vibrating material so that the vibration is transferred or sustained in the material which is placed in the middle.
Thanks for the reply.
I am still not sure how a town clock works.
May be you can come to a conclusion after watching these links.
do we need to give a key to it manually every once in a while?
I just wanted to know how a town or a tower clock works. I would like to know if I can device a mechanism such that I will be able to use the striking train to strike every second, loud and clear i.e. I must get a loud chime every second but without using an electrical supply.
For example, if I strike a copper or silver materials with each other they produce vibrations or even when a string is stretched in a guitar vibrations are produced.
Likewise which material induces maximum vibrations for a sustained period of time?
