dc.description.abstract | This research project designed a simple system that can be used to detect the magnitude of lightning sound. it is widely known
that the meteorology department in Uganda has not been effective enough to acknowledge all the trends of lightning in all parts of the country. As a way to overcome this situation my system will be used to detect the magnitude of thunder which is proportional to the lightning intensity and then generate the trends of lightning in the most probable seasons. The project involved selection of appropriate measurements for the materials to be used to design the circuit and these include; lC - LM3914 Integrated circuit (National) 10 LED’s - Common red, yellow or green general purpose silicon diode 10KΩ, 114W,5 percent resistor , 4.7KΩ 114W,5percent resistor , 10KΩ potentiometer 4.7KΩ trimmer potentiometer, C - 1 to 10µF, 12W VDC electrolytic capacitor. | en_US |
