Diary 2 (2)

Assalamualaikum Wr.Wb

The second day of the English Language Study in the 2nd Semester, I went go to campus, when i was arrived i looking for a seat for me, the time is 18:53 and the lecturer is came in the class, and gave us task, the task is "Make a Toefl Questions". The lecturer explain how to make Toefl questions. When finished, we were told to make a group, 1 group of 2 people. I am a group with Muhammad Fachri, after that we discuss to determine the group order. After finishing the discussion, the time is out, and continue to second lesson.

Assalamualaikum Wr. Wb

Hello guys, wee meet again on second semester.. that's awesome, how was your holiday? fun right?

The first day of the English Language Study in the 2nd Semester, I college on afternoon class. Based on schedule it turned out the class was no longer on the central campus, there was a place that was slightly far from the central campus, our class in on C3.2. I went to that place, after that many friends the will arrived. I immediately looked for a bench to sit. After that we will wait lecturer to enter. After a long time of wait, lecturer is not yet come too. A friend of mine who spoke, apparently he could not attend because there was work out of town. We were a little disappointed because the lecturers could not attend and could not teach, but it was not a problem because there was still another time to study English. After that we waited for the second lesson, Mathematics.

Part 1

 

Resistor

Resistor was discovered by the year 1827 from Georg Simon Ohm, a German electrician. Ohm was born in Germany, in the city of Erlangen at 1787 and died at 1854.

Georg Simon Ohm noticed that different materials that are considered as electrically conductive, will not allow the current to flow within their body with the same ease. The difficulty that each material had to do with some parameters such as the type of the material and some external factors such as the temperature or the humidity of the atmosphere. G.S.Ohm described this behavior and gave the name "Resistance".

A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical resistance as a circuit element. In electronic circuits, resistors are used to reduce current flow, adjust signal levels, to divide voltages, bias active elements, and terminate transmission lines.  High-power resistors that can dissipate many watts of electrical power as heat, may be used as part of motor controls, in power distribution systems, or as test loads for generators.

Fixed resistors have resistances that only change slightly with temperature, time or operating voltage. Variable resistors can be used to adjust circuit elements (such as a volume control or a lamp dimmer), or as sensing devices for heat, light, humidity, force, or chemical activity.

Resistor color code

The resistance value and tolerance are indicated with several colored bands around the component body. This marking technique of electronic components was already developed in the 1920’s. Printing technology was still not far developed, what made printed numerical codes too difficult on small components. Nowadays, the color code is still used for most axial resistors.

Translation

Resistor

Resistor ditemukan pada tahun 1827 oleh Georg Simon Ohm, seorang ahli kelistrikan Jerman. Ohm lahir di Jerman, di kota Erlangen pada 1787 dan meninggal pada 1854.

Georg Simon Ohm meneliti bahwa material berbeda yang dianggap penghantar listrik, tidak membiarkan arus untuk mengalir ke bagian mereka dengan ketenangan yang sama. Kesulitan pada setiap material tersebut, ada kaitannya dengan beberapa parameter seperti jenis bahan dan beberapa faktor eksternal seperti temperatur atau kelembapan udara. G.S Ohm  menjelaskan keadaan ini dan memberinya nama “Ketahanan”.

Resistor adalah komponen listrik dua terminal pasif yang mengimplementasikan hambatan listrik sebagai dasar elemen rangkaian. Di rangkaian elektronik, resistor digunakan untuk menurunkan tegangan, menyesuaikan level sinyal, membagi tegangan listrik, elemen aktif biasan, dan mematikan jalur transmisi. Resistor berkekuatan tinggi dapat menghilangkan banyak daya listrik seperti panas, dapat digunakan juga untuk bagian kontrol motor dalam sistem distribusi tenaga, atau sebagai penguji muatan untuk generator.

Resistor tetap memiliki ketahanan hanya pada perubahan yang sedikit pada suhu, waktu atau tegangan. Resistor variabel dapat digunakan untuk menyesuaikan rangkaian (seperti kontrol volume atau lampu dimmer), atau sebagai pengindraan untuk panas, cahaya, kelembaban, gaya, atau aktivitas kimia.

Kode Warna Resistor

            Nilai ketahanan dan toleransi diindikasikan dengan beberapa ikatan berwarna di sekitar bagian komponen. Teknik penandaan komponen elektronik ini sudah dikembangkan di tahun 1920-an. Teknologi printing masih belum jauh dikembangkan, yang membuat kode nomor bercetak sangat sulit dicetak pada komponen kecil. Saat ini, kode warna masih digunakan pada kebanyakan resistor axial.

Look at the following example:

Resistor is discovered by the year 1827 from Georg Simon Ohm

            A       B           C                 D

The answer is A. Should be “was” because the sentences used past tense. Because recounting events that occurred in the past

Now let’s begin to the structure and written test

1.    Ohm went born in Germany, in the city of Erlangen at 1787 and died at 1854.

    A         B                             C                              D

The answer is A. Should be “was”. Because recounting events that occurred in the past

2.    Georg Simon Ohm notice that different materials that are considered as electrically

    A                 B                                          C

conductive, will not allow the current to flow within their body with the same ease.

                        D

The answer is A. Should be “noticed”. Because G.S Ohm noticed that in the past.

3.    A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical

          A                                                                                       B                

resistance was a circuit element.

                   C                     D

The answer is C. Should be “as”. Because that sentence is describe what  resistor is.
