Safety Rules

1. Avoid water at all times when working with electricity. Never Touch or try
repairing any electrical equipment or circuits with wet hands. It increases
conductivity of the electric current.

2. Inspect cords: Ensure you never use equipment with frayed cords, damaged
insulation, or broken plugs.
3. Turn off mains: Before working on a receptacle at home, always switch off the
mains. Consider posting a sign to prevent accidental activation.

4. Use insulated tools: For safety, opt for insulated tools while working.

5. Be aware of hazards: Be vigilant about exposed energized parts and unguarded


equipment. Follow electrical safety codes and watch for warning signs.

6. Wear protective gear: Prioritize using insulated rubber gloves and goggles when
working on circuits.

7. Test before repair: Always check if equipment is de-energized using a tester before
attempting any repairs.

8. Choose the right ladder: When working at height, avoid aluminum or steel ladders.
Opt for bamboo, wooden, or fiberglass ladders to prevent grounding from electrical
surges.

9. Know the wire code: Familiarize yourself with the wire code specific to your
country.

10. Always check all your GFCIs once a month. A GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter) is a RCD (Residual Current Device). They have become very common
in modern homes, especially dam areas like the bathroom and kitchen, as they help
avoid electrical shock hazards. It is designed to disconnect quickly enough to avoid
injury caused by over current or short circuit failures.

Wind Turbines

Wind turbines consist of numerous aerodynamic blades connected to a central hub that
converts wind energy into electrical power. The concept of harnessing wind energy dates
back centuries, but the practical application of wind turbines began to materialize in the late
19th century.

The power generation process involves the kinetic energy of moving air causing the turbine
blades to rotate. The rotation activates a generator, producing electricity. Modern wind
turbines often have adjustable blades to optimize energy capture in varying wind conditions.

The turbine blades are typically made from durable materials like fiberglass or carbon fiber,
designed to withstand constant exposure to wind forces. The tower, supporting the blades and
housing the generator, is strategically positioned to capture the maximum wind speed at
higher altitudes.

Wind energy is then converted from alternating current to direct current through a power
converter. Subsequently, the electricity is integrated into the existing power grid to supply
energy to homes and businesses.
Figure 1: How a Wind Turbine Operates

Process of Manufacturing Wind Turbines

The manufacturing process of wind turbines initiates with the creation of fiberglass or carbon
fiber blades. These blades are meticulously designed for aerodynamic efficiency and
structural resilience. The central hub, generator, and tower components are fabricated to
withstand various environmental conditions.

To construct the tower, steel or concrete is employed, ensuring stability and longevity. The
assembly of the turbine involves mounting the blades onto the hub and connecting the
generator to harness rotational energy.

After assembly, wind turbines undergo rigorous testing to ensure optimal functionality and
safety. Once approved, they are transported to wind-rich locations and installed by skilled
technicians. The completed turbines contribute clean and sustainable energy to the overall
power grid.

Operation of the Voltage Divider A voltage divider serves to reduce an extremely high
voltage for measurement with a voltmeter. The elevated voltage is connected across the
divider, and the divider output, which provid

es a lower voltage within the meter's input range, is then measured using the meter.
For this particular project, the researcher measured the varying resistance of the variable
resistor over 8 turns. Simultaneously, they recorded the voltage, resistance, and current of the
fixed resistor, aiming to demonstrate Ohm’s Law.

According to Ohm's law, the current flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to
the voltage difference across it, where V represents voltage, I is the current, and R is the
resistance. Additionally, the resistance of a conductor is inversely proportional to the voltage
difference across it.

Table showing the Results of the Experiment

Verification of Ohm’s Law using the Measured Data Utilizing samples 2, 5, and 8:

Sample 3

 Current (I): 0.211 A Ohm’s Law: V=I×R

 Voltage (V): 3.70 V

 Resistance (R): R=V/I

 Calculated Resistance: R=3.70V/0.211A

 Calculated Resistance: R= 16.573 Ohms (Ω)

Comparing the measured value with the values calculated by George Ohm, they align.

Sample 5
 Current (I): 1.945 A

 Ohm’s Law: V=I×R

 Voltage (V): 4.21 V

 Resistance (R): R=V/I

 Calculated Resistance: R=4.21V/1.945A

 Calculated Resistance: R=16.84 Ohms (Ω)

Comparing the measured value with the values calculated by George Ohm, they align.

Sample 8

 Current (I): 1.945 A

 Ohm’s Law: �=�×�V=I×R

 Voltage (V): 6.15 V

 Resistance (R): �=�/�R=V/I

 Calculated Resistance: R = 6.15 V/1.945 A

 Calculated Resistance: R = 3.162 Ohms (Ω)

Comparing the measured value with the values calculated by George Ohm, they align.

The researcher also noted that as Voltage and Current increased, Resistance decreased,
further confirming Ohm’s Law, which states that resistance is inversely proportional to
current.
Additionally, upon analyzing the experiment, the researcher observed variations in the
calculated resistance. This is attributed to the loss of current, voltage, and resistance across
the circuit components.

Furthermore, as Voltages increased, Current increased simultaneously, in accordance with


Ohm’s Law, which states that Voltage in a circuit is directly proportional to Current.

It was also observed that turning the variable resistor to the right increased the LED
brightness, while turning it to the left dimmed the LED.
Conclusion

In conclusion, the voltage divider circuit was skillfully designed and implemented to regulate
the output voltage of the Light Emitting Diode (LED).

The installation of all circuit components was successful, and the researchers were able to
validate Ohm's Law.

Pictures of the Assembled Experimental Set-up

The DC motor is an electrical apparatus that transforms electrical energy into mechanical
energy. At its core, a direct current motor operates on the principle that when a conductor
carrying current enters a magnetic field, it undergoes mechanical force.

In a basic DC motor, an electromagnetic field is produced at the coil's center by utilizing a


stationary set of magnets in the stator and a wire coil with current flowing through it. The
commutator sequentially energizes each armature coil, generating a consistent rotating force,
also referred to as torque.

For this project, the researcher conducted tests on the voltages of both open and closed
circuits, along with measuring the resistance of the coil.
Observations
The following observations were made after the simple DC Motor was constructed:

• When the circuit was opened, the voltage was 7.30 volts.

• At closed circuit, the voltage was 3.84 volts.

• To function properly, the coil had to be placed very close to the magnet.

• In order to function properly, the coil had to be placed in the center.

• The resistance of the coil was 3. 7 Ohms.

• Before it could be used, the coil had to be balanced.

• The coil needed assistance before it could begin to function.


Conclusion
In conclusion, the researcher had effectively installed the apparatus. The readings were
accurately recorded and documented, resulting the process being a success.

then translates them into electrical signals based on the intensity and color of the light.
These raw electrical signals undergo processing through the image processing circuitry,
where tasks such as noise reduction, color correction, and image enhancement are
performed to refine the quality of the captured image. Once processed, the resulting
image data is stored in memory modules, such as SD cards, enabling retrieval and access
at a later time.

The processed images are then displayed on a screen, such as an LCD or OLED display,
providing users with a visual output in the form of a live video feed or static images. User
interaction is facilitated through a user interface, which may include buttons, touchscreen
controls, or other input methods, allowing users to adjust camera settings, capture images,
or initiate commands.

To ensure continuous operation, the camera system is powered by a power source, which
could be batteries or external power supplies. Power distribution circuits manage the flow
of electricity to each component, ensuring they receive the necessary power for operation.
Additionally, captured images or video footage may be transferred to external devices or
networks for storage, sharing, or further processing through data transfer interfaces like
USB, Wi-Fi, or Ethernet.

To protect against environmental factors and physical damage, the camera system
components are housed within an enclosure, with mounting hardware securing the system
in place for proper installation and stability. Through system integration, the various
components work seamlessly together, enabling the camera system to fulfill its function
of capturing, processing, and displaying images or video footage effectively.
Observations

 It was observed that the camera successfully captured images when powered on and
positioned correctly.

 Additionally, it was noted that the quality of the captured images depended on factors
such as lighting conditions and camera settings.

 The researchers also observed that proper alignment of the lens with the subject
significantly affected the clarity and focus of the captured images.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the design and construction of the camera system were completed
successfully, allowing for the capture of images under various conditions. The
observations highlighted the importance of proper setup and alignment for optimal
performance. Overall, this project demonstrated the effective utilization of electronic
components to achieve the desired outcome of image capture and processing.
