Arkadaşlar ödevim için bu cümlelerin Türkçeye çevrilmesi gerekiyor bilen kişi için zor değil gerçekten :) Şimdiden uğraşan herkese teşekkürler.

1-An old-fashioned glass thermometer must be held under the tonguefor at least 3 minutes before a final reading is delivered. This is calledan equilibrium reading.

2-A digital thermometer, however, delivers an equilibrium reading in 30 seconds or less.

3-A digital thermometer consists of a heat sensitive device called a thermistor, which is embedded into the tip of the thermometer that goes under a person’s tongue.

4-A thermistor is a semiconductor element. Its resistance changes as the temperature to which it is exposed varies.

5-With an NTC (negative temperature coefficient type of thermistor, the thermistor'sresistance decreases when the temperature to which it is exposed increases.Conversely, as the temperature decreases, the resistance increases.

6-A current is sent through the thermistor by a sensor element. The amount of current that is allowed to flow is based on the resistance of the thermistor.

7-For example, as the temperature rises, the thermistor’s resistance decreases,allowing more current to flow.

8-The sensor element compares the thermistor’s current to the current values stored in its memory. These comparisons produce a series of periodic initial temperature readings that are sent to a microprocessor.

9-A microprocessor is an electronic brain. It is used in such devices ascomputers, calculators, and electronic games.

10-The microprocessor takes the periodic temperature reading from the sensor and plugs it into a complex mathematical formula.

11-End ofprojection(electronic tone)

12-Initial temperaturemeasurement

13-Calculations are made by using the sensor reading to project a temperature-rise curve.

14-From this curve, the microprocessor is able to deliver a temperature reading in 30 seconds or less by predicting the equilibrium temperature.

15-The projected temperature is converted into a numerical value and sent to an LED display for the user to read.

16-To extend the life of the tiny battery that powers the thermistor, the microprocessor automatically shuts off the digital thermometer if it is not used for a certain period of time.
