ON THE LONG RUN, EVERYTHING SETTLES DOWN

   

      If you toss a coin 5 times, 4 times you may get head and one time you may get tail.  Toss it 10 times, it may be head 7 times or 3 times tail.  Toss it 100 times. Roughly 50 times you will get head or tail.  If you do 10000 times, Most likely 5000 times we get head or tail.  A computer can easily simulate this process.  As the 'number' increases, we reach the fifty percent probability. 7/10 is not 50%  But 5007/10000 is.
     Let us roll the dice three times, it may be 2,4,6.  The average is 2+4+6/3 =4.  But, if we roll the dice many, many times and find the average, it will settle down exactly at 3.5.

  1,1,2,3,5,8,13....144,233....
     The above is the Fibonacci series, Adding the previous two numbers, you get the next number.  Now take successive numbers one by one and find their ratio.
    2/1 = 2
    3/2 = 1.5
    5/3 = 1.666
    8/5=1.6
  13/8 = 1.625
 21/13 = 1.615...
 233/144 = 1.6180
 377/233 = 1.6180...
  On the long run, the ratio settles down at 1.6180....It is called golden ratio.  It appears everywhere in nature.

     Let us take one simple formula
   e= 1*(1+1/n)ˆ1*n
put n=1
 e= 1*(1+1/1)ˆ1*1 =2
Put n=3
e= 1*(1+1/3)ˆ1*3 = 2.37
As the n increases, what happens?
      n                                 e
      1                                 2
      2                                 2.25
      3                                 2.37
      5                                  2.488
      10                                 2.5937
      100                              2.7048
      1000                            2.7169
      10000                         2.71814
      100000                       2.718268
      1000000                     2.7182804
    'e' settles down at 2.718... It is an very important mathematical and physical constant.

      Triangle has three sides.  Pentagon has 5 sides.  Polygon has many sides.
If number of sides in a polygon is go on increases, it will approach a circle.
     Normal body temperature, BP. pulse rate, sugar level is determined by taking average in a large sample of population.  As the size of the sample increases, the the value approaches accurate level.

FOOT NOTE:   Fluid situations, dynamic changes, diseases, chaotic traffic, flood, economic crisis, all stabilizes at some point.  One has to treat the problem and wait patiently.

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...
