GOD MAY RESIDE IN FOURTH DIMENSION

  We have seen 3 dimension movies, 3D holograms, 3D printer etc.,  Is there anything higher than 3 dimension?  Can we imagine and comprehend it?  Cosmologist Stephen hawk says that there are worlds with higher dimension.

     A point is having zero dimension.  When two points are connected by line, its dimension is 1.  Electrical wire may thought to have one dimension.  If 2 parallel lines are connected by two other lines, we get a two dimensional square.  A  sheet of paper is the example.  Take 2 parallel square surfaces .  Connect the four corners by four lines, we get a cube of three dimension.  The living room is the example.

      Following the same logic, take 2 cubes and connect 8+8 corners. we must get four dimensional cube called tesseract.  The figure shown is only 2D representation of 4D cube.  Higher than 4D is very difficult to model.  

      A train can move only on its track.  It is having one dimensional freedom.  A car can move in any direction on the surface.  Hence it has 2D freedom.  An airplane can fly in entire 3D space.  So higher dimension means high power.  Hence the air force is the important force in warfare.  Great china wall is nothing to a small plane.

     Let us see an illustration .  Take a A4 paper.  Mark 2 points A and B at the 2 ends of the paper.  Let us say an ant tries to travel from A to B.  It is a 2D motion on  2D surface.  We are 3D creature.  We are having more powers than the ant.  We can fold that paper in 3D space so that the A and B lies one below the other.  We can punch a hole through the point A.  Hence now the ant can move through A and reach B quickly and easily.

      This is the principle of worm hole in cosmic space.  If we reach fourth dimension in space, we can travel from one place to another in cosmos  through worm hole with less energy and time.  This theory may become reality one day.

     So any life are creature having higher dimension than 3D must be our creator or superman or monster.  Our brain and eyes are not capable of visualizing and handling higher dimensions than 3D at present.

THE EARTH, A SUPER ORGANISM

     JOIN MY COURSE: "Become a programmer in a day with python"       A man called 'love lock' (what a name) proposed a theory called Gaia theory, named after Greek Goddess.      It says, "Earth is a self-regulating organism like a human being.  The organic life in it interacts with in-organic matter and maintains atmosphere, temperature and environment".  Hence the earth is still suitable for the life to thrive.      Imagine, in a particular place, there are lot of flowers.  Some flowers are white and some are darkly coloured.  We know, white reflects light and heat while dark absorbs the same.  White flowers can thrive in hot climate.  But dark flowers requires cold climate.  The absorption and reflection balances and the environment reaches average, warm temperature at which both the flowers can co-exist.  This is the essence of "Gaia" theory.      On our earth, ...

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.   ...

DISORDER IS THE "ORDER OF THE DAY"

         Imagine a balloon full of air.  The air molecules are moving randomly inside the balloon.  Let us pierce the balloon with a pin.  The air rushes out.  Why should not the air molecules stay inside the balloon safely and ignore the little hole?  That is not the way the world works.  The molecules always "want to occupy as many states as possible".  Hence the air goes out in the open to occupy more volume.   The things always goes into disorder (entropy) and the disorder increases with time.  The above statement is what we call "second law of thermodynamics".      Consider a cup of coffee on the table. Suppose the heat from entire room flows to your cup of coffee, the coffee will boil and the rest of the room will freeze.  Freezing means bringing things to order and arrangement.  It violates the second law.  Hence it will never happen.  Hence heat must flow from high ...
