A DAY AT WORK

In the morning I attended a meeting between management and union representatives. The discussion was very comprehensive, covering topics like working hours, days off, retirement age, etc. Both sides were interested in an agreement and ready to compromise. The secretary recorded everything in the notes. Eventually, they decided to set a new meeting to sign the final draft of the agreement. Back at the office, a colleague of mine asked me if I had realized that the proposed agreement would be partially against the company policy not to accept workers that have already retired. I pretended to be really busy and late for an appointment, and left for the cafeteria. Actually, I didn't want to discuss the matter at that particular moment because there were some strangers in the office. After lunch I attended a lecture given by the mayor, who is an expert in tax legislation and has a graduate degree in political science. He said his government intends to assist welfare programs and senior citizens, raise funds to improve college education and build a public library, and establish tougher limits on vehicle emissions because he assumes this is what the people expect from the government.

TEXTO 3 Lamps can be connected in series or in parallel. If you connect lamps in parallel the lamps stay the same brightness however many lamps you add. This is because the voltage across every lamp is the same. In your house the lamps are connected in parallel. This means that even if you have all the lights on, the lights do not dim.

Even more directly associated with the machines are those who use them in their day-to-day work scientists and storekeepers, clerks and directors, soldiers and sailors, accountants and engineers besides the growing numbers of computer personal who are responsible for making the machines do the work. Each of us, whether layman, computer use or computer technician, will have problems with computer terminology.

TEXTO 2 In the beginning, there was the analog cell phone. And then the cell phone went digital. And that provides a clearer connection and more reability. Now the future of technology appears to be in the hands of the mobile phone industry. Cell phones and handhelds are everywhere. The future is now, and it is wireless. Except the future is still the future. Wireless technology is relatively young. The first generation has been around only since the early 1980s, when analog voice transmission networks were introduced. The second generation took over in the mid-90s with the advent of digital wireless voice and data networks, giving us the capabilities that spawned the cell phone revolution we know today. Now comes the so-called third generation or 3G which generally refers to networks capable of connecting to the Internet at speeds 40 tines the rate of todays cell phones, promising Interneting connections will be fast enough to download streaming audio and files, swap digital photos, and hold teleconferences. It will also use the existing spectrum space more efficiently and increase the speeds with which basic data can be transmitted over wireless devices.

Parallel lamps Lamps can be connected in series or in parallel. If you connect the lamps stay the same brightness however many lamps you add. This is because the voltage across every lamp is the same. In your house the lamps are connected in parallel; this means that even if you have all the lights on, the lights do not dim. Batteries Batteries are a source of electrical energy. The energy is stored as chemical energy and is converted into electrical energy as it is required. The more energy a battery stores the longer it will last. Different types of batteries have different voltages. The voltage is a measure of the strength of the battery. The higher the voltage, the brighter the bulb and the faster the motor. As a battery runs out its voltage gradually drops. Many batteries have a voltage of 1.5 V. for most lamps this is not enough, so often two batteries are connected in series. This doubles the voltage to 3 V. Fuses Electricity can be dangerous if you short a battery or the supply in your house a very high current flows. Sometimes the wires which carry the current heat up and melt. This may cause a fire or an explosion. Fuses protect against fire caused by electrical faults. When the current gets too high, fuses burn out and break the circuit. This stops the wires from burning. After a fuse burns out, a qualified person must find the fault before the fuse is replaced.

TEXTO PARA LEITURA, COMPREENSO E EXERCCIOS DE VOCABULRIO Electronic Circuits Introduction This unit introduces you to electronic circuits and explains the meaning of current, voltage and resistance. You will find out about Ohms equations and about some of the components used in building electronic circuits. Drawing a circuit diagram A different way of describing the torch is by using a circuit diagram in which the parts of the torch are represented by symbols.

Fig. 2
Shining a light Have you ever taken an torch to pieces to find out how does it work? Look at Fig. 1 below, which shows the arrangement of parts inside a torch. In Fig. 2 there are two electric cells (batteries), a switch and a lamp (the torch bulb). The lines in the diagram represent the metal conductors which connect the system together. A circuit is a closed conducting path. In the torch, closing the switch completes the circuit and allows current to flow. Torches sometimes fail when the metal parts of the switch do not make proper contact, or when the lamp filament is blown. In either case, the circuit is incomplete. The diagrams show different arrangements of cells, switches and lamps.

Fig. 3 Current An electric current is a flow of charged particles. Current is sometimes carried by positively charged particles, but inside a copper wire, current is carried by small negarively charged particles, called electrons. Metals, such as copper, contain free electrons, which drift in rang]don directions as shown in Fig. 4.

Why Fig. 1 did the designer of the torch choose this particular combination of materials? The metal parts must conduct electric current if the torch is to function, but they must also be able to stand up to physical forces. The spring holding the cells in place should stay springy, while the parts of the switch must make good electrical contact and be undamaged by repeated use.

Fig. 4 Voltage

Each cell provide a push, called its potencial difference or voltage. This is represented by the symbol V, and is measured in volts, V. Sometimes, you will want to measure voltages in thousands of a volt, or milivolts, mV. Typically, each cell provides 1.5 V. If cells are joined together one after the other, they are said to be connected in series. Two 1.5 V cells connected in series provide 3V, while three cells provide 4.5 V. Digital Oscilloscope

For the maximum safety of the person who may use the oscilloscopes, they have been designed and manufactured for full safety features and they are shipped after stringent inspections. And yet, it is unavoidable handle it carefully, in order to avoid damage to the instruments and hazards to the persons. Above, there are notes and warnings which the persons using the instrument must take heed of and observe: Fig. 5 NOTE Calls for special attention for correct and efficient use of the instrument. Resistance If a thick copper wire is connected from the positive terminal of a battery directly to the negative terminal, you get a very large current for a very short time. In a torch, this does not happen. Part of the torch circuit limits, or resists, the flow of current. Most of the circuit consists of thick metal conductors which allow current to flow easily. These parts, including the spring, switch plates and lamp connections, have a low resistance. The flow of current through the filament causes it to heat up and glow white hot. Lamp filaments are usually made of the metal tungsten because of its very high melting point. In hair, the filament would quickly oxidize. This is prevented by removing all the air inside the glass of the lamp and replacing it with a non-reactive gas. WARNINGS Calls for attention for a matter which might lead to a damage of the oscilloscope itself or other instruments. The following symbols may be posted on the oscilloscope as well as indicated in this manual.

DANGER! HIGH VOLTAGE This symbol means that the item cannot be charged up to a hazardous high voltage and must not be touched with bare hands. REFER TO THE CORRESPONDING SECTION This symbol means that relative explanations contained in other parts of the handbook should be consulted. CAUTION Means a matter which can lead to electric shock hazards to the person who is operating the instrument or to damage of the instrument itself or other instruments. USE A 3-PIN PLUG - For the input of AC input cable, be sure to use a 3-pin type (one of the pins is used for safety grounding). AC LINE VOLTAGE Be sure to operate the oscilloscope on an AC line voltage within is correct range. AC POWER CABLE When replacing the AC plug of the AC power cable, be sure to replace it with a plug of the correct type and ratings, and to connector the GND, NEUTRAL and LIVE wires which are color colored as shown in figure below: AC POWER FUSE Be sure to use a power fuse of the correct ratings.

COVERS This oscilloscope has hazardous high voltages internally. Do not remove the covers of the oscilloscope lest you should expose yourself to such high voltages. The covers should be removed only by qualified experts.

permissible to operate the oscilloscope on an AC line voltage of 90 250 V, frequency 45-440 Hz. Checking the type and ratings of fuse Before connecting the power cable to the AC inlet of the oscilloscope, check the type and rating of the power fuse. The fuse holder of the oscilloscope is structured integrally with the AC inlet. The fuse holder cap can be detached by using a screwdriver or a pointed tool as showing bellow. Two fuses (one of which is for replacement spare) are put in the cap.

FEATURES ( 1 ) Easy to operate You can easily use major functions of the oscilloscope which employs a direct knob control system. ( 2 ) Compact and light COR 5500U series is very compact and light for its sophisticated functions and reliable performance. This has become feasible through dexterous use of flush-mount components. ( 3 ) CRT readout It displays various items of information on the CRT screen, providing you with powerful means for rapid but accurate measurements. ( 4 ) Comment display You can display comments by using this feature. ( 5 ) Alternate magnified sweeps This feature allows you to magnify readily any portion of the waveform you want to observe more closely. This time base can be magnified by 5,10 or 50 times. The Alternate Magnified Sweep mode, which runs a mains sweep and magnified sweep alternately, is also available. ( 6 ) Sampling rate up to 20 MS/s Each channel has a 5 bit A/D converter, allowing you to store the single-shot data from both channels simultaneously. In single Trigger Mode, you can capture frequency components up to 5.7 MHz (when Curve Interpolation is used). ( 7 ) 4k words/ channel memory capacity each channel has a 4k word memory, and resolutions of 400 points per one division horizontally. The stored and reproduced waveforms closely resemble the original analog ones. COR 5500U series has two 4k-word Saving Memory units. The memory units are internally backed up so that the data is not destroyed even if the power is turned off. The data is maintained for a longer period. ( 8 ) Repetitive mode The COR 5500U can store repetitive signals up to 100 MHz. PRECAUTIONS ( 1 ) Receiving Inspections The oscilloscope has been subjected to electrical and mechanical tests to guarantee the satisfactory quality and performance. ( 2 ) General precautions - This section is about electrical and mechanical precautions for safe and correct use of the oscilloscope.
