Information Engineering General Terms current d This button switches on the electrical current. temperature x Water freezes below a temperature of 0oC. resistance R Copper has less resistance than lead. voltage d The voltage in Japan is 110V. circuit ŖH A break in the circuit made the lights go out. direct Direct current moves in only one direction. alternating Alternating current changes directions very quickly. signal Mٺ The television signal was very weak. amp AyAAn amp is a standard measure of the flow of electrical current. ohm I[An ohm is the standard unit of electrical resistance. Equipment antenna AeiYou need an antenna to pick up the signal from the satellite. magnet ڴ Don't put the magnet too close to the disk drive. resistor RɒA resistor is used to increase electrical resistance. battery dr The flashlight needs a new battery. transistor A transistor is used to control the flow of electrical current. fuse q[YA fuse is used to prevent too much electricity from flowing through a wire. wire dƟ Wire is used to carry electricity. motor [^[ The robot's arm was driven by a motor. transformer ɒ We used a transformer to change the voltage. cell dr A cell makes a current of electricity by chemical action. coil RCѪAƟThe coil of wire was almost used up. bulb dѷ A bulb is the glass part of an electrical light. amplifier ɒ An amplifier makes electrical current stronger. integrated circuit WŖHAn IC is a small set of electrical connections printed on a chip. Elements silicon PCf zinc steel | nickel jbP oxygen _f platinum ш hydrogen Ʒf ceramics ɒ carbon Yf copper iron S tin alloy ٽш aluminum AѰ~jE bronze uٰYA Information and Systems algorithm AѰSɰYAn algorithm is a step by step problem-solving procedure. network lbg[N The Internet is one kind of computer network. theory ԫ Our theory about the movement of the robot was proved wrong. architecture \΢ The architecture of computers has changed a lot. specifications dl Each computer has its own specifications. simulation V~Ԫ[V We used simulation to verify the theory. memory L This computer doesn't have enough memory. environment More and more people now work in the Windows environment. robot ٰ{bg @ The robot successfully completed the task. Adjectives positive ҭ A positive signal means the robot is working normally. negative }CiXAŭ The program resulted in a negative number . virtual Źz The computer had six megabytes of virtual memory. non-linear Ɵ` Most nature cannot be explained by non-linear equations. optimal فK The robot's behavior reached its optimal level. rigid The rigid robot could only work in one environment. robust ٰoXg The robust robot could adapt to new environments. flexible _㔭 Flexible robots can work in many environments stable The robot became stable after it received a new battery. unstable s The unstable robot needed to have its program changed. Verbs transmit `᭎ The satellite transmitted solar power back to earth. flow ­ Turn on the switch and electricity will start flowing. conduct `, `ϭ Copper conducts electricity very well. generate Ʀҭխ The robot can generate its own decisions. amplify gΌ᭎ The signal was amplified to control the robot. magnetize ڴȭ᭎ The robot's arm was magnetized to lift the object. monitor ɀѭ᭎ We monitored the robot closely in the dangerous environment. compute vZ᭎ The optimal value was computed. recognize F᭎ Some software can recognize the human voice. improve ԟҭխ After we improved the program, the robot worked perfectly. analyze ᭎ We analyzed the experiment data. distribute z᭎ The data was distributed very widely. control ƤԊ᭎ We controlled the robot using a remote.
