Reader Response Theory and the Structuralist Model of Reading
Chapter 11: Reader Response – Ideal, Implied, and Actual Readers
Stanley Fish
– Fish’s reader is an “informed reader” or an “ideal reader”. The ideal reader responds to challenges and mysteries with relish.
– Especially when we have trouble understanding a text, we can ask what kind of ideal reader it seems to address.
– Fish tends to take the ideal reader in a more limited way. He ends up basing his suppositions about how ideal readers respond on his own understanding of how he himself responds.

Single Phase Induction Motor
Working Principle
Basically, a single-phase induction motor comprises a squirrel cage rotor similar to that of three-phase motors and a stator with a single-phase AC-powered winding. Usually constructed with powers less than 1 hp, they are also called fractional motors.
Introducing an alternating current in the stator windings produces a magnetomotive force in the gap. This produces a magnetic field proportional in strength, which in turn induces currents

Satellite TV Receiving Station
Components
- Antenna: Captures signals from the satellite and converts them into an electrical signal.
- Outdoor Unit: Receives the signal from the reflector and is located at the focus of the parabola.
- Indoor Unit: Processes the IF signals from the outdoor unit and provides a radio frequency signal in the UHF band.
Types of Reflectors
- Centric Focus Antenna: Concentrates the signal received by the antenna, yielding 60%.
- Offset Parabolic Antenna: Avoids the shadow on the parabolic
