L
LENZ'S LAWThe current induced in a circuit, caused by its motion in a magnetic field or a change in it's magnetic flux, in such a direction as to exert a mechanical force opposing the motion or to oppose the change in flux [2]. |
LIGHT RAYSLight waves emitting from a source in straight lines [10]. |
LIGHT-EMITTING DIODEA PN-junction diode that emits visible light when it is forward biased. Depending on the material used to make the diode, the light may be red, green, or amber [7]. |
LIGHTHOUSE TUBEAn electron tube shaped like a lighthouse that is designed to handle large amounts of power at uhf frequencies [6]. |
LIMITERA device that prevents (limits) a waveform from exceeding a specified value [9]. |
LIN-LOG AMPLIFIERAn amplifier in which the response is linear for weak signals and logarithmic for large signals [18]. |
LINE OF FORCEA line in an electric or magnetic field that shows the direction of the force [1]. |
LINE OF SIGHTStraight line from a radar antenna to a target [18]. |
LINE-PULSING MODULATORCircuit that stores energy and forms pulses in the same circuit element, usually the pulse-forming network (pfn) [18]. |
LINEARHaving an output that varies in direct proportion to the input [6]. |
