HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT

Your friend asks " shall I bet 1000 dollars in Las Vegas tonight? "
You want answer "yes" secretly. You can do it in the following way easily.

Step 1. Write down the binary code of YES as used in computer.

Y E S
01011001 01000101 01010011
( 8 bit binary code)

Step 2. Write some sentences like
"my life is open book. I have no secrets." [30 letters]

Step 3. Let each letter in the sentence represent a bit {binary digit 0 or 1}.
To represent 0, leave the font as it is. To represent 1, make the letter slightly bolder[ you can innovate]. Code the 24 bits in first 24 letters of the sentences. Leave the remaining 6 letters as they are. They may be taken to represent trailing zeros. The sentence looks as given below.

"my life is open book. I have no secrets."

Step 4. Send the sentences through e mail.

You have communicated YES secretly to your friend in an open channel without giving room to suspicion.

This is the simple form of cryptography{science of secret coding}. Binary digit coding is the successful computer oriented technique used to represent information.

LISSAJOUS FIGURES

Definition: "When a particle is subjected to two sine wave motion or two oscillatory motion at right angles, the particle describes lissajous figures". We know sine wave motion and circular motion is basically same. Hence we draw two circles A and B perpendicular to each other. The circle B rotates twice faster than circle A. That is, frequency of circle B is two times than that of A. A particle at the intersection of two circles is subjected to two sine wave motion A and B at 90 degree simultaneously. The particle will describe figures depending on the frequency and phase of A and B . In our case, the ratio of frequency is 1:2 and the two waves are in phase. To draw lissajous figures : A moving point in both the circles are chosen. Here we should remember; during the time taken by the circle A to complete one rotation, circle B completes two. Hence the points are marked on the circles according to their speed. Then straight lines

THE PARABOLA

A jet of water shooting from a hose pipe will follow a parabolic path. What is the so special about parabola. Y= x^2 Draw a graph for the above equation. It will result in a parabola. This parabola is also called unit parabola. Any equation involving square will yield a parabola. Example: Y = 2x^2 +3x+3 (also called quadratic equation) X= 2 and -2, both satisfies the equation 4 = X^2. Parabolic equations always have two solutions. Any motion taking place freely under gravity follows parabolic path. Examples: An object dropped from a moving train, A bomb dropped from flying plane, A ball kicked upwards. If a beam of light rays fall on the parabolic shaped mirror, they will be reflected and brought to focus on a point. This fact is made use of in Dish Antenna, Telescope mirrors, etc. Inverted parabola shape is used in the construction of buildings and bridges. Because the shape is able to bear more weight. A plane

CASINO'S GAME

Let us find out how the casino survives with mathematics. Say, your friend invite you for a game of dice. You must bet (wager) 2 dollars. If you roll 'six' you will get back 8 dollars. The game will go on for 30 rounds. All sounds good. The probability of rolling 'six' is 1/6. Since the game will be played for 30 times, the 'expected win' is 30*1/6 = 5. That is, you are expected to win 5 rounds out of 30. Hence your gain will be 5 * 8 =40 dollars. ok. This also implies that you will loose 25 rounds. Hence your loss will be 25*2 =50 dollars. Your net gain will be gain-less = 40-50 = -10 dollars. For 30 rounds, the loss is -10 dollars, Hence, for one round =-10/30 = -1/3 dollars. There will be a loss of -1/3 or 0.33 dollars per round. It is not a fair game. Let us make a simple formula to calculate 'Pay out per round\. The probability for a win = p The pay-out in case of win = V No. of rounds = n The expect
