Comments
ET-8499
Calorimeter
Set the Power Supply’s Stair function for a single heat pulse (see
page 26).
EM-8678
Charge/Discharge Circuit
Use the Power Supply to charge the circuit’s capacitor or battery. Set the
Power Supply’s maximum voltage to 5 V (see page 20).
ET-8782
Thermoelectric Circuit
Set the Power Supply’s maximum voltage to 10 V (see page 20).
ME-8088
Centripetal Force
Apparatus
Use the Power Supply’s ramp function (see page 23) to slowly increase
the rotational speed.
ME-8750
Mechanical Oscillator
Driver
Drive dynamics carts (such as ME-6950) or the Chaos/Driven Harmonic
Accessory (CI-6689A).
ME-8955
Rotational Motor Drive
Drive the Rotating Platform (ME-8951) with the Magnetic Levitation
Accessory (EM-8947) or Rotational Acceleration Tank (ME-8957).
TD-8513
Heat Conduction Apparatus
Power the apparatus with a positive-offset rectangle wave (see page 22)
or sine wave (the Power Supply’s default custom program, see page 28).
