Propeller   A propeller is a mechanical device that converts rotational motion into thrust, typically used to propel vehicles like airplanes, boats, drones, and submarines. The propeller consists of blades, often shaped like airfoils, that rotate around a central hub. As the blades rotate, they create a pressure difference between the front and the back, resulting in forward or backward movement. Key Components of a Propeller: 1. Blades: The elongated, wing-like structures that rotate and create thrust by moving air or water. 2. Hub: The central part of the propeller that connects to the rotating shaft of an engine or motor. 3. Pitch: The angle or twist of the blades relative to the plane of rotation. The pitch determines how much thrust the propeller generates and how efficiently it moves the air or water. Types of Propellers: 1. Fixed-Pitch Propellers: The pitch of the blades is fixed and cannot be adjusted. Commonly used in small aircraft and boats where variable performance is ...

 Capacitor A capacitor is a passive electronic component that stores electrical energy in an electric field. It consists of two conductive plates separated by an insulating material called a dielectric. When a voltage is applied across the plates, an electric field is created, causing one plate to accumulate positive charge and the other to accumulate negative charge. This stored energy can be released when needed in a circuit. Key Characteristics of a Capacitor: 1. Capacitance (C): The ability of a capacitor to store charge is measured in farads (F). Capacitance depends on the surface area of the plates, the distance between them, and the dielectric material between them. 2. Dielectric Material: The material between the plates, such as air, ceramic, mica, or electrolytic substances, which increases the capacitor's ability to store charge without allowing current to flow directly between the plates. 3. Voltage Rating: Every capacitor has a maximum voltage it can withstand, beyond w...

 Inductor Inductors are passive electronic components that store energy in the form of a magnetic field when an electric current passes through them. They typically consist of a coil of wire wound around a core, which can be air, iron, or some other magnetic material. The main property of an inductor is its inductance, which is the ability to resist changes in the current flowing through it. Key characteristics of inductors include: 1. Inductance (L): Measured in henries (H), inductance is the measure of an inductor's ability to store energy. The larger the inductance, the greater the opposition to changes in current. 2. Magnetic Field: When current flows through an inductor, it generates a magnetic field around the coil. This field collapses when the current stops, which can induce a voltage in the opposite direction (this is known as back EMF). 3. Applications: Inductors are commonly used in electrical circuits for filtering, energy storage, and managing alternating current (AC) ...

 Basic electronic Basic Electronics refers to the fundamental concepts and components involved in creating, analyzing, and understanding electrical circuits. It's the foundation for many fields like electrical engineering, robotics, communications, and more. Here's a breakdown of the basic concepts in electronics: 1. Basic Electrical Concepts: Electric Current (I): The flow of electric charge (electrons) through a conductor, typically measured in amperes (A). Current can be direct (DC) or alternating (AC). Voltage (V): The potential difference between two points in a circuit. It’s the force that pushes the current through a conductor, measured in volts (V). Resistance (R): The opposition to the flow of electric current in a material, measured in ohms (Ω). Materials like metals have low resistance, while insulators have high resistance. Power (P): The rate at which electrical energy is consumed or produced in a circuit, measured in watts (W). Power is calculated using the formul...

 Battery Cell A battery is an electrochemical device that stores energy and converts it into electrical energy. It consists of one or more cells, each containing a positive electrode (cathode), a negative electrode (anode), and an electrolyte that facilitates the movement of ions between the electrodes. When connected to an external circuit, a chemical reaction occurs within the battery, creating an electric current that powers devices. Types of Batteries: 1. Primary Batteries (Non-rechargeable): Alkaline batteries: Commonly used in household items like remote controls and toys. Lithium batteries: Often used in small electronics such as watches, calculators, and cameras due to their long shelf life. Zinc-carbon batteries: Older, inexpensive batteries used in low-drain devices like flashlights. 2. Secondary Batteries (Rechargeable): Lithium-ion (Li-ion): High energy density and commonly used in smartphones, laptops, and electric vehicles. Nickel-metal hydride (NiMH): Often found in ...

 Photodiode A photodiode is a semiconductor device that converts light into an electrical current. It operates based on the principle of the photoelectric effect, where photons (light particles) striking the semiconductor material cause the generation of electron-hole pairs, leading to a measurable electric current. Photodiodes are widely used in applications where detecting light intensity, position, or changes in light levels is required. How Photodiodes Work: Reverse Bias Operation: In most applications, the photodiode is operated in reverse bias, where a voltage is applied in such a way that the depletion region (the area with no free charge carriers) is widened. This enhances the sensor’s sensitivity to light. Generation of Current: When light hits the photodiode, photons are absorbed, creating electron-hole pairs. These charge carriers are swept across the junction by the electric field in the depletion region, generating a photocurrent proportional to the intensity of the in...

 Piezoelectric Pressure Sensors Piezoelectric pressure sensors utilize the piezoelectric effect, where certain materials generate an electric charge when subjected to mechanical stress or pressure. These sensors are ideal for dynamic pressure measurements such as vibrations, impacts, and rapid changes in pressure. They are commonly used in applications requiring high precision, fast response, and durability. How Piezoelectric Pressure Sensors Work: 1. Piezoelectric Effect: When a piezoelectric material (such as quartz or certain ceramics) is mechanically stressed by pressure, it generates an electrical charge proportional to the applied force. 2. Electric Charge Generation: The generated charge is collected by electrodes and converted into a measurable voltage signal. The voltage signal is proportional to the applied pressure. 3. Signal Amplification: Since the generated voltage is usually small, the output often requires amplification using a charge amplifier or voltage amplifier....
