THE CAR

   

     Today, around 700 million cars  speed along our roads.
     A tiny amount of high energy fuel, (petrol), trapped in a small, enclosed space (engine cylinder) and ignited will release an enormous amount of energy as the gas expands.  If this is done hundreds of times a minute, this energy can be harnessed to move a piston up and down.  Attaching what is known as a 'crank shaft' converts this motion to rotation.
     American inventor ford recognised that the car was so expensive because it took so long to build.  With the advent of the industrial revolution, engineers realised the potential for speeding up the manufacturing process by getting different workers each to repeat their tasks over and over again.  Ford spotted that this so called 'assembly line' could be applied to car manufacturing.  The framework of the car moved along a line of workers, who each added a new part.  As the workers did not have to move around  the factory and become expert at adding a specific part, it only took around an hour and a half to build each car.
     Rudoef Diesel, Bertha Benz, Henry Ford shapped automobile industry.  The car, comfortable personal and family transport reins the world even today.
     The car has evolved and evolving.  The car is a status symbol.  It is once called 'pleasure'.  Since it gave pleasure even in those days.
     Todays cars have, adjustable seats, power stearing, power gears, Auto gears, Reverse parking sensors or camera, built-in high quality musical system, Air bags for safty, Auto lock, keyless entry.  Central lock, powerful AC and so on and on.  High end car even tells you how long you can go with available fuel.  The modern car is electrical and electronic wonder.
    The fuel of the car has evolved from petrol, diesel, gas to chargeable battery.  We are now slowly moving into electrical cars.  Now the pollution is taken care of.  Today, cars are available from a few lakh rupees to more than one crore rupees.
     The car is an important invention in the human history.  People will continue to love the cars for status, pleasure, comfort, asset value and of course for
transport.

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...
