How do environmental sensors contribute to monitoring air quality and soil quality?

Environmental sensors measure various parameters like pollutants, humidity, and temperature to assess the quality of air and soil.

What is the purpose of the delay() function in Arduino programming?

The delay() function pauses the program for a specified amount of time in milliseconds.

Explain the difference between analogRead() and digitalRead() functions in Arduino.

analogRead() reads analog voltage values, while digitalRead() reads digital signals (HIGH or LOW).

Define global variables and local variables in Arduino and provide two advantages of each.

Global variables can be accessed from any part of the program, while local variables are only accessible within the function they are declared in. Global variables facilitate data sharing, while local variables help in memory management.

How do you define a variable in Arduino programming, and what are its data types?

In Arduino, variables are defined by specifying the data type and a unique name. Data types in Arduino include int, float, char, and boolean.

Explain the term 'Unsigned long Data Type' and provide an example of its usage.

The 'unsigned long' data type in Arduino can store positive numbers from 0 to 4,294,967,295. It is often used to handle large numbers or for time-related calculations.

Test your knowledge on environmental sensors, types of sensors used in modern technology, sensor functionality, and the utilization of motion sensors in security systems and consumer electronics. This quiz is based on the content from the Department of Physics at J.B.S.P.'S C.K.Thakur A.C.S. College.
