Dual trace oscilloscope along with block diagram?

in the dual trace cro the same electron beam is used to generate the two traces that can be deflected from two independent vertical source

The signal trace capability of the conventional CRT can be modified to produce dual image or dual trace display, by means of fast electronic switching of two separate input signals. Channel A and Channel B with preamplifier and delay lines feed their input to an electronic switch that alternately connects the input of the main vertical amplifier to the two signal inputs. The same are displayed with various display modes.

When the display mode selector is in the alternate position, the electronic switch alternately connects vertical amplifier to channel A & B. The switching rate is synchronized to the sweep rate, so that CRT spot traces channel A signal on one sweep and channel B on next. Since these signals have calibrated input attenuator and a vertical position control, the amplitudes of the input signal can be adjusted individually and the two images placed separately on the screen. This mode is useful with fast sweep rates, when the two images appear as one simultaneous and state display.

In chopped mode electronic switch is free running at the rate of 100 to 500 kHz, entirely independent of the frequency of the sweep generator. In this, switch successively connects small segments of A and B waveforms to the main amplifier. At fast chopping rate of 500 kHz, or say 1 microsecond, sweep of each waveform is fed to CRT for display. If the chopping rate is much faster than the sweep rate, the individual segments reconstitute the original A and B waveforms on screen without interruptions in the two images. If sweep rate approaches the chopping rate, the segments' waveforms become visible as individual images and the continuity of image display is lost, which is less picturesque than the alternate mode of position.

The use of polarity inversion switches can display A+B, A-B, B-A, and -A-B modes.

In the X-Y mode the sweep generator disconnects channel B and is connected to the horizontal amplifier. This gives good X-Y measurements with same amplifications. In addition the dual trace CRO can be used as single beam CRO, displaying either A or B as a function of time.

Is waxing bad?

No! Waxing doesn't even damage your hair follicle, it does hurt, though after 2 or 3 goes, you get used to it, I am used to waxing under my arms, I am GETTING used to waxing on my arms, though I still find my legs painful, though after one more go(which is going to happen today... oh god!) I think waxing for my legs will get better!

Where can you find plans for a solarium trailer?

The first direction notes that you need a sturdy and flat base to build on. So that seems like the main problem to solve if you are going to build a moveable solarium. Otherwise, it seems like you would need additional structural reinforcing to accommodate the different base and movement of the structure.

Why should you listen to your teacher?

There is no need to listen to your teachers if you are willing to accept the consequences, blaming no one else but yourself. These consequences are that:

  • Your job prospects will be limited to minimum paying jobs.
  • Your life expectancy as a non-graduate is demonstrably shorter than a graduate.
  • Your chances for a happy marriage are reduced.
  • Your chance to make a positive impact on the world will be limited.
  • All the good stuff (travel, adventure, respect) will be beyond your reach

Why is the kid's project different from the other student's ideas in the movie pay it forward and why do you think the other student's ideas are different from Trevor's?

Trevor's project for school in the film Pay It Forward was different from the rest of his students in the class because he didn't just want to pass the project. He wanted to make a difference in the world. Trevor thought outside of the box.

What is the difference between technique and strategy?

What role did women play in teaching in Colonial America?

Was hypatia a Christian?

No she was not. She was a Pagan. However, some of her students & friends were Christians. Unfortunately, a group of fanatical Christians accused her of causing a rift between the prefect of Alexandria & the Bishop of that same city, & she was brutally murdered!!

Does water in the classroom help kids concentrate in class?

This is a hoax spread by the pseudoscience braingym that mysteriously finds its way into schools.

Studies have shown that if a person is dehydrated after strenuous physical exercise then water will improve concentration. People are rarely dehydrated. Consuming water when not dehydrated has been found to have the opposite effect and decrease concentration. This happens in a similar way to the drop in concentration after eating food. So the simple answer is most of the time it will lower their concentration.

How do we honor Dr. Seuss's contribution to education today and when did we begin to celebrate his contribution to education?

We honor Dr. Seuss's contribution to education by celebrating Read Across America Day on his birthday, March 2nd. This celebration started in 1998 by the National Education Association as a way to promote reading and engage children with literature. Dr. Seuss's books continue to be popular in classrooms for their valuable lessons and creativity.

Quadrilaterals with four right angles?

The answer is a rectangle because the angles in a rectangle add up to 360`, since a right angle measures 90`. Then four times 90` (4 * 90`=360`).
