Hmmm.....my server seems to be dead, or at least the connection to it is dead. I'll fix it first thing tomorrow (fingers crossed). Meanwhile, you can find your lab for this week HERE, and a supplement for the lab HERE.
So what's this one about, you might ask....well, this week you'll look at transformers. I think it's safe to say that you've all dealt with transformers in some form in other courses, but in this course we will examine them using fundamental EM theory. We'll actually have to cover quite a bit of material before we're ready to give transformers the full EM treatment, but everyone can handle the lab this week because it is a measurements-type lab that you can later refer back to when we cover the theory. Hopefully the theory we develop will match the measurements.
Speaking about measurements and the value of measurement-based labs, consider this quote that I read recently on-line:
"One accurate measurement is worth a thousand expert opinions."
