    Circuit Schematic
AI Thread Summary
A user is seeking assistance in creating a simple circuit design for a physics class, specifically requesting a schematic similar to one provided in a link. They need an item list, connection guide, and a diagram for clarity. Despite extensive searching, they have been unable to find a suitable example, as the one they found is already being used by a friend. The user also shares a resource about 555 timer circuits that may be helpful for others. Assistance in providing a straightforward circuit schematic would be greatly appreciated.

I've been asked to make a simple circuit design for a physics class.

Basically, I'm looking for something like this:

http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/Bill_Bowden/page5.htm#eyes.gif

I need something with an item list and a guide as to how to connect it... needs a diagram etc.

I've been looking for hours and I honestly can't find one. The one in the link is a perfect example but ironically is the same one my friend is doing.

I would be incredibly grateful to those who help!

HUGE THANKS I LOVE YOU!
 
Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?
While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...
I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...
