Human Balance system

What is the human balance system?

The Human's balance system works through a constant process of position detection, feedback and adjustment using communication between the inner ear, eyes, muscles, joints and the brain. Deep inside the ear, positioned just under the brain, is the inner ear.

What are some techniques you can do to improve your balance?

balancing on one leg 

Closing your eyes 

putting your arms out in front of you.

Why do people feel dizzy after spinning around?

Because the water inside your ear is still spinning and it's sending messages to your brain and your brain is thinking that you are still moving but your legs are planted in place.

Health 5 Second Rule

 Kia ora, so in Health we were set a task the required us to learn about vaping and teach others about vaping. Firstly, we had a question that we were given to answer about vaping, from there we had to talk about it in the whole class and with Miss Aitken. We decided to make a game, our game is the five-second rule game. The topic we were doing was about vaping and, the game included questions about vaping and what you should do if you want to stop, why people vape and what happens if you actually vape. Firstly we had to decide on which of the big six questions were going to do to help with our game. Our questions were, When and Why did Vaping become an issue in New Zealand? From there we decided on our game and came up with questions for the game. We choose to create this game because we thought it would be a good game to play with friends and family. We learnt that these strategies are helpful to use if, you are working in a group and want to stop smoking or vaping. It was challenging when we had to find/ reword the rules because some of the rules didn’t make sense. I coped with the challenge of this by asking my teammates for help. Next time I will talk to my teammates about what we could've done more or when could've made more changes to the board game. So thank you for reading my blog.

House plan

 Hello everyone for this whole term we have been learning bout ohm’s law for most of it we made a house plan. We aimed to learn about ohm’s law. We also learnt voltage and current and resistance. Voltage is an electromotive force or potential difference expressed in volts. Current is a flow of electricity that results from the ordered directional movement of electrically charged particles. Resistance means the degree to which a substance or device opposes the passage of an electric current causing energy dissipation.

My path 1s current is 4amps My path 2s current is 2.67amps My 3 paths current is 4amps and my total current is 10.67amps. I don't have area calculations because I was away.

Conclusion: I enjoyed the project because I learnt about voltage current and resistance and I wouldn’t change anything about it if I was to choose a different house plan I would choose house plan B and the bulbs I would choose 10 bulbs.
