We see LEDs every day. They're in lotsa stuff. A light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor diodethat radiates light (electoluminescence) when current passes through it in the forward direction. Electrons move though semiconductor medium and "fall into" other energy levels during their transit of the p-n junction. When these electrons make a transition to a lower energy level, they give off a photon of light. This photon may be in the infrared region, or just about anywhere across the visible spectrum up to and into ultraviolet - but we have to pick a color when we make them. That means we can get an infrared LED to work in our remote controls, and get other ones of different colors to make indicators or, in large arrays, displays - even color ones. LEDs uaually are made to emit one color of light, though bicolor ones and more can be fabricated. Intensity is being improved as well. That broadens the applications considerably (think vehicular tail lights). The device has a pair of leads, and a (usually) plastic body moulded around the leads and the semiconductor crystal itself. That way the light can get out through the plastic. There is frequently a "round dome" at the top of the LED which serves to focus the light headed out through it. Remember that it is the material of the semiconductor crystal that determines the light given off by the device. A normal LED isn't really voltage dependent. When obtaining the LEDs, a manufacturer or hobbiest specifies the color. Red, green and blue are most popular, and, though there are other colors, it might be tough(er) to find them. Note that the big LED color displays use a three-LED pixel, and by driving it (the 3-LED assembly) appropriately, a wide range of colors can be obtained. This in an introduction to the LED. An electronics student will review semiconductor fundamentals and then more closely examine the chemisty and physics of the particular p-n junction that is fabricated to exhibit electroluminesce.

WHAT IS coherence bandwidth of radio channel?
The coherence bandwidth of a wireless channel is the range of frequencies that are allowed to pass through the channel without distortion.

What is a p plus type semiconductor?
This just means that the semiconductor has extra holes in it. On the order of 10^6 I believe.
How much voltage does a lead acid battery produce in an airplane?
A lead acid cell has an off charge/no load voltage of 2.2 volts, so that 12 cells in series will have a voltage of 26.4 volts. When you float this across a charging supply, standard practice is to increase the voltage to 2.3 volts per cell, so that the total voltage becomes 27.6 volts.
Airplanes normally have a 27.6 volt DC system, and larger aircraft also have a 115 volt 400 Hz system. Also, rare these days, possibly a 115 volt wild frequency system.
Note that the so called 12 volt system in a car is actually 13.8 volts.

Why do LNB's have to be mounted close to the satellite dish?
The LNB takes the signal reflected off the dish, sends that signal through the coax cable to the receiver, where the receiver decodes the signal unlocking the channels you subscribe to.
Setting the low pass filter on a car sub woofer?
LPF setting: typically 60-100Hz. Most use ~80Hz. Depending on the sub and the type of music You listen to, if set too low the sub won't put out the wanted frequencies; to high and power is wasted on higher frequencies.
Cosmic rays are constantly coming down, coliding with the electrically charged atmosphere witch creates a massive ionization screening in the ionosphere. A giant world wide electromagnetic umbrella!
Norton's theorem is the current equivalent of Thevenin's theorem.
The experiments of Georg Ohm set the foundation for this law, which is also known as Ohm's Law.
A triac is a high voltage AC solid state relay it is switched on by applying a dc at the gate it can't be used to switch DC because it stay on while current is flowing even when the gate is low but with AC the current stop flowing when the cycle go zero and will switch of if the gate is low
A 30 volt 90 watt lamp has 3 amps going through it. The series resistor also has 3 amps going through it, by Kirchoff's current law. The voltage across the resistor is 90 volts. With 3 amps, that is 30 ohms. (By the way... The resistor must be rated to carry 270 watts. That is a lot of power for a resistor.)
Sources with different voltages should never be connected in parallel, you would have a difference of potential. Any time you have a difference of potential connected together you will have sparks, which could cause the batteries to explode.

What is the difference between active and passive component?
Active means devices that perform functions in a non linear fashion [amplifiers] passive are components that perform according to a set of linear rules
An arbitrary identifying number. These numbers are usually selected by the first manufacturer of the part.
What happens if you connect one 8 ohm speaker to an amp rated 350w at 4 ohm?
No Problem to do this, but there are really no amplifiers with an output impedance of 4 ohms on the market. All loudspeaker amplifiers have an impedance of less than 0.5 ohm. Scroll down to related links and look at "Impedance bridging - Wikipedia".

What factors does the time constant of a thermocouple depend on?
It depends on the mass (m), specific heat (c), convective heat transfer coefficient (h) and the surface area (As)
In other words,
Time Constant = (m * c) / ( h * As)
When there is almost no resistance in a circuit what is it called?
This is what is known as a "short circuit".
Is yagi uda antenna have parasitic elements?
Yes, the Yagi-Uda antenna has several parasitic elements, in the form of a reflector ("behind" the driven element) and the directional elements ("in front" of the driven element).
What makes a AC freeze up at the coils after you have clean the coils and the AC has freon?
Bottom line: Start by checking the ducts and turning up the thermostat a few degrees. If you still have problems call a pro.
Reason:
The most common cause of icing on the evaporator coils is insufficient air flow. Check to make sure the ducts are clear of any obstructions or debris, particularly the inlet duct. Also make sure that you have not closed too many of your outlet registers.
If there is plenty of airflow but you are still getting icing, you are probably over-working the system. You may need to turn up your thermostat and deal with slightly warmer indoor temperatures until the weather cools off.
One final possibility, some systems have a hot gas bypass valve to prevent icing and if it is not functioning properly, that could be the culprit. I mention this last because it is not very common in home air-conditioners. If yours has one and it isn't working that would require professional assistance to diagnose and repair.
