THE AIRY WORLD

     


     We know our earth is enveloped by gas atmosphere.  The atmosphere stick to the earth because of gravity.  The moon has weak gravity.  Hence no atmosphere on it.  As the earth rotates, the atmosphere also rotates along with it.  Suppose, you are lifted up in the atmosphere by a balloon, you will be dragged along with the atmosphere and the earth.  As the fish live in water atmosphere, we live in gas atmosphere.  Both cannot breath outside.
     Air has the bouyancy like water.  Hence an airplane can glide and float like a ship on the water.  Many times we can see gliding birds.
     Sunlight scattered by the atmosphere gives the illusion of blue sky.  No blue sky in the night.  Our atmosphere has 78% of nitrogen.
    We inhale oxygen and give out carbon-di-oxide. The plants use carbon-di-oxide for photosynthesis and release oxygen.  This cycle keeps the Eco-system going.  The lungs of a city are parks.
     When the air molecules strike a surface, pressure arises.  That is what you feel when you press a balloon.  The atmospheric pressure is the important indicator of weather.  The air pressure pushes the juice in your straw as you suck. That is why you are able to drink it.
     We are able to converse with each other only because of the atmosphere.  The sound wave travel as the pressure wave in the air.  Artificial atmosphere is created in the space station and in the rockets.
     Everything burns due to oxygen in the atmosphere.  For example stove, petrol engine, candle.  Hence, energy is created out of atmosphere.
     In summer, we want to cool our bodies.  Hence we blow out the air using fan.  We want to keep warm in winter.  So, we do not want to loose warmed up air.  That is why we wear sweaters, fur clothes and thermal wears.
     When the air plane moves swiftly on the run way, air blows fast over it.  Consequently the pressure decreases over the plane.  Now there is a more pressure under the wings which lifts up the palace like plane.   On the moon, no atmosphere.  Hence take off can be done only by firing rocket engines.
     We may live wide apart, but we breath in the same atmosphere.

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...
