An antenna radiation pattern experiment has been carried out with the aim of determining the patch antenna radiation pattern on a logarithmic and linear scale, understanding the properties and principles of the antenna, and understanding the types of antenna radiation patterns. In the experiment, the angle, frequency, and radian intensity data were obtained, and the value of the linear intensity was calculated. With the principle of converting electrical signals into electromagnetic signals. a graph between angle and intensity is obtained. the graph between radian intensity and angle forms a circular pattern, in which the value of intensity and frequency at each point with a difference of 5 degrees has almost the same value. In conclusion, the antenna is a structure that can receive and release electromagnetic waves in the air. The patch antenna used has a unidirectional radiation pattern. Converts electromagnetic signals into electrical signals and vice versa, has a certain radiation pattern, and is easily disturbed by metallic materials.
Superposition of waves experiment in physics subject need more innovation to dig up student knowledge about the essential of waves in physics. Such innovation is using Audacity software for analyze it. The purpose of this study is to analyze the superposition of sound waves using Audacity software in the wave superposition experiment. The method used is to prepare tools and materials, namely PC/laptop, 250 Hz, 1 kHz audio files and Audacity Software. Then, 250 Hz and 1 kHz audio is sampled in one wave using Audacity after which each audio sample is imported twice and then combined with Audacity software and saved. This is done for different audio frequencies as well. Then, the results of the merger are opened with Audacity and then analyzed and compared with the initial wave. And the resulting superposition of two 250 Hz waves produces an amplitude of twice and 250 Hz and 1 KHz is produced over a 4 ms wave period and the constructive and destructive wave amplitudes depend on the phase of the two waves. Thus, wave superposition experiments using Audacity software facilitate the analysis of superposition results and characterize the period and amplitude properties of waves.
Research on the Characterization of the Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) Light Sensor has been carried out with the aim of understanding the characteristics of the LDR light sensor, for processing changes in the LDR resistance value as a measurement of light intensity and for accessing an 8-bit resolution ADC by entering the LDR light sensor voltage result. The value of the resistance on the LDR depends on the size of the light received by the LDR itself. In addition, the greater the intensity of light hitting the LDR surface, the smaller the resistivity. On the other hand, the smaller the intensity of light hitting the LDR, the greater the resistance value. The basic principle used in the use of LDR resistors as components of this sensor is the change in the resistance value and the amount of current flowing in the circuit. In this experiment, the distance variations of 0cm, 3cm, 6cm, 9cm, 12cm, 15cm, 18cm, 21cm, 24cm, 27cm and 30cm were used. LDR characteristics are slow response in identifying light intensity, the greater the light intensity the smaller the resistivity, LDR can be used to read changes in light intensity and data retrieval can be done with an op-amp and a microcontroller.
Implementing the village program for village youth to become oyster mushroom farmers in Kadungrembug Village, it is best if they need support in managing the waste produced. The waste produced by mushroom farmers is baglog waste, which is generally used as fertilizer. The purpose of this activity is in the form of transfer of solid fuel technology. The applied solid fuel technology transfer is briquettes. This is supported by the process of making baglog which requires a lot of fuel, such as woods, to be used for media sterilization. The method used is socialization and mentoring, namely the introduction of briquettes and briquette-making technology. The impact on the implementation of solid fuel technology transfer is the efficiency of spending for mushroom farmers to buy firewood and solving the problem of waste with a higher selling value by implementing the making of briquettes. From the results of the questionnaires distributed to the village youth both before and after the activity, it was shown that there was a very significant increase in the understanding of village youth in solving the problem of oyster mushroom cultivation waste and supporting the economy in oyster mushroom cultivation.
This research is motivated by making alternative energy from waste. Currently, the waste problem is dominated by plastic waste. The most common use of plastic waste is plastic bags for shopping. This results in accumulation of waste. Briquettes are an alternative energy. The best briquettes are from coconut shells. This study made briquettes from coconut shells with added plastic waste with variations of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%. Making briquettes goes through several stages, namely flouring the basic ingredients, making dough, molding and characterization. The characterization results show that the greater the added value of plastic waste, the greater the calorific value produced. This can affect the value of the briquette burning song. Maximum results were obtained from coconut shell briquettes with the addition of 25% plastic waste, namely 8261.2 cal/g.
