WHY THE MOVIE IS SHRINKED IN TV AND MOBILE

 
     
     Take an A4 paper.  Measure length and breadth.  It will be 297 mm and 210 mm.  297/210 gives 1.414.  This is the square root of 2.  We can also say, the A4 paper has the ratio 1:1.414.  For any A series paper, we always get this ratio.  We know, if you cut the A4 paper into halves, we get two A5 papers.  If you double -up the A4 paper, we get an A3 paper.  This is the concept of A series paper.

      Why should we maintain a fixed ratio?  Suppose you want to photocopy the contents in the A1 paper to A5 paper using Xerox machine.  The contents will exactly fit in the small A5 page.  This is because of the constant ratio of A series papers.  If we do not maintain the ratio, the contents will either over-fit or underfit.  That is, either some contents will be left out or blank space will appear.

      When a movie is telecast in the TV or streamed in the mobile, a black space appears at the top and bottom of the screen.  It is because of mismatch of ratios.  Mobile and TV screens have an aspect ratio of 16:9.  But a movie is shot in the aspect ratio of 2.35:1.  That is the reason.

      Tele serials are shot in the ratio 16:9.  Hence they are clearly displayed on the screen.  In the case of picture and movie, landscape and rectangle always have the appeal.

      Old TV had the ratio 4:3 or 16:10.  16/10 gives 1.6 which is the golden ratio given by Fibonacci sequence.

      Note:  All the countries have flag and flag-code.  The flag-code specifies the aspect ratio.  Many countries and India have the ratio 3:2 and standard sizes.  A national flag should strictly adhere to the ratio and the code.

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...
