ETERNAL WHEEL OF MOTION

   


Visible light, X-rays , sunlight, radio waves, television waves, wifi signals, blue tooth signals, cell phone transmission and GPS.  All are purely electromagnetic waves made up of electric and magnetic fields.  We just want to know how they are created and propagated.




     Imagine a positive and negative charges separated by a distance.  An invisible line of electric force connects both of them.  If we oscillate one of the charges, line of force oscillates and creates a wave like form. ( If you oscillate a rope tide at one end, a wave ripples through the rope)

     That is, electric field oscillates or changes with time.  According to Maxwell's fourth law, a changing electric field produces changing magnetic field perpendicular to it and encircling it.  So a magnetic field wave is produced.

     Again Maxwell's third law says, "changing magnetic field produces circulating electric field".

    So the result is : The oscillating charges produce changing electric field; changing electric field creates changing magnetic field; then changing magnetic field .... so on and on.

     Hence electromagnetic field is created and propagates through  empty space by itself.  Maxwell proved the existence of electromagnetic wave and he also proved that they travel with the velocity of light using purely mathematics (without doing any experiment).

     A star light travels number of years in space before reaching our eyes.  This kind of self sustaining motion is possible because of Maxwell's electromagnetic phenomenon.

Your heart -you do not know

  Size and Location: The human heart is roughly the size of a clenched fist and is located slightly to the left of the center of the chest. Despite its relatively small size, the heart plays a crucial role in pumping blood throughout the entire body. Heartbeat Variability: The heart does not beat at a constant rate. The interval between heartbeats can vary, and this variability is considered a sign of a healthy heart. Factors such as breathing, emotions, and physical activity influence the heartbeat. Electrical Conduction: The heart's contractions are controlled by electrical impulses. The sinoatrial (SA) node, often called the "natural pacemaker," generates electrical signals that regulate the heartbeat and coordinate the pumping of blood. Blood Pumping Capacity: On average, the human heart pumps about 2,000 gallons (or 7,570 liters) of blood each day. Over a lifetime, this amounts to pumping enough blood to fill several Olympic-sized swimming pools. Heart Chambers and V...

THE WORK HORSE "="

    One cannot think of  a mathematical step without 'is equal to ' .  It balances right hand side and left hand side.  It aids simplification and manipulation of a mathematical expression. example: 2(A+B)  = C 2A+2B  = C         2A = C-2B           A = C-2B/ 2   In an electronic calculator,  the pressing of ' = " sign executes an asthmatic expression  or simply calculates.       In computer languages, it plays very important role.                                                                 A = B   When a computer looks at this expression, the value stored in the location named B is just transferred to the storage named A .  After execution both A and B will have the same value an...

How does your smart phone detect motion, steps, rotation, and location?

 How it works-1  An accelerometer in a smartphone is a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) device that measures acceleration and tilt. It works by detecting changes in motion by measuring the vibration or acceleration of the device. The accelerometer consists of a small mass suspended on a spring inside a sealed chamber. When the device is subjected to acceleration, the mass moves relative to the device, causing a change in capacitance that can be measured and processed by the smartphone's hardware. The accelerometer measures acceleration in three dimensions (x, y, and z) and provides data that the smartphone's software can use to determine the device's orientation, detect motion, and track changes in velocity and acceleration. The accelerometer is used for a variety of purposes in a smartphone, including screen rotation, motion tracking for games and fitness apps, and detecting the position of the device for navigation and location services. Additionally, it can be used t...
