Flashcards
Human Senses
Human Senses
Five primary senses are sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. Each sense has a specific organ that detects stimuli and transmits signals to the brain for interpretation.
Eye
Eye
The eye is the organ responsible for sight. It detects photons (light particles) that hit the retina, sending signals to the brain for visual processing.
Ear
Ear
The ear is the organ responsible for hearing. It detects sound waves (sonic waves) that reach the outer ear, traveling through the middle ear to the inner ear, where they are converted into electrical signals sent to the brain.

Study Notes
Ohm's Law
- Ohm's Law states the relationship between voltage (U), current (I), and resistance (R) in an electrical circuit
- The formula is: U = I * R
- This means voltage is equal to current multiplied by resistance
- Example: If the current (I) is 3A and the resistance (R) is 2Ω, then the voltage (U) is 6V.
Voltage and Current Changes
- The diagram shows a graph with voltage (U) on the vertical axis and current (I) on the horizontal axis. A linear relationship is shown between voltage and current
- A change in current (ΔI) results in a corresponding voltage change (ΔU)
- The slope of the line on the graph represents the resistance (R).
- The slope can be calculated using the formula: R = ΔU/ΔI
- Example: If a change in current (ΔI) of 3A produces a change in voltage (ΔU) of 6V = R = 2Ω
Cold vs. Hot Resistor.
- The notes show calculations related to the resistance of a resistor in a circuit.
- Different resistances are associated with different types of conductor
- Calculations based on the circuit components' variations lead different resistance values.
