English Premier League


The English Premier League (EPL) is an annual football league played in England which starts in August and ends in May. It is the most popular league and the most competitive league in the world.
It consists of 20 clubs in top flight English football. The first season took place in 1992/93 which was won by Manchester United. The most recent season was won by Leicester City which was the biggest shock ever. The most successful club in the PL is Manchester United with a jaw-dropping 13 titles. In the 2016/17 PL season the clubs participating are:





  • AFC Bournemouth
  • Arsenal 
  • Burnley
  • Chelsea 
  • Crystal Palace 
  • Everton 
  • Hull City 
  • Leicester City
  • Liverpool 
  • Manchester City 
  • Manchester United
  • Middlesbrough 
  • Southampton 
  • Stoke City
  • Sunderland 
  • Swansea City 
  • Tottenham Hotspurs 
  • Watford: Walter Mazzari
  • West Bromwich Albion 
  • West Ham United  


Qualification For UEFA Competitions



Out of the 20 clubs, the top-four teams qualify for the UEFA Champions League. The top three are directly qualified whereas the fourth placed team has to go through the qualification round.
The next two team, finishing fifth and sixth, qualify for the UEFA Europa League. Also, the winners of the FA Cup and EFL Cup also qualify for this league. But if the clubs who finished among the top four win these tournaments then the qualifications are passed to the seventh and eighth placed teams.


Relegation And Promotion




Also, the last three teams are relegated to the lower division whereas the top three teams from the lower division qualify for the EPL.


FA Community Shield


Before the new season of the Premier League begins, the winners of the EPL and FA Cup of the last season battle it out for supremacy in the FA Community Shield.


Transfer Window


The teams are allowed to buy new players, sell some players, give some players for a loan to other clubs. This process takes place only when the Transfer Window is open, from July to August and again in January. Once the Transfer Window is closed, no more deals can be completed.


Contracts


All the players and the managers sign for the club on contracts. They are paid their wages weekly by the respective club they represent. The players and the manager can extend their contracts or even terminate them. Sometimes, if the owner of the club is not happy with the team's performance he may sack the manager and look for a better replacement. The managers are not necessarily transferred during the Transfer Window. Unlike the players, they can be appointed any time.

Piezoelectric Crystal

Piezoelectric Crystal {literally_pressing electricity} Ever wondered what it might be like to live in dark or sleep in a hot summer day without an AC ? Absurd, isn't it ? But with the rate at which we are using our resources, it may not be long before it actually happens. Scientist across the globe are searching for new resources, stocks and technology to prevent the near, unpleasant future of current and the next gen. One of these, an unexploited tech is that of Piezoelectricity. Piezoelectricity is an ability of some special materials (like crystals of quartz, ceramics of lithium niobite, gallium arsenide, zinc oxide) to trigger an electric charge when supposed to mechanical stress. These materials are available in basic instruments that we use in our daily life like microphones, quartz watch, gramophones. All these materials are run by the piezoelectric current. But how does it work? When you apply force (mechanical force) on it, an electric potential, on eit

The Inverse & Reciprocal TRIGONOMETRIC Functions

So, this is my second post on trigonometry. In this post we're gonna cover the reciprocal and the inverse Trigonometric functions. If you haven't seen my first post you should definitely view it as it covers the basics of Trigonometry The Reciprocal Trigonometric Functions The reciprocal Trigonometric function of Sine is Cosecant, of Cosine is Secant & for Tangent it is Cotangent. Cosecant (Csc θ = 1/Sin θ) or (Hypotenuse/Opposite) Secant (Sec θ = 1/Cos θ) or (Hypotenuse/Adjacent) Cotangent (Cot θ = 1/Tan θ) or (Adjacent/Opposite) We can also represent Tan θ in another way. As Tan θ = opposite/adjacent  & Sin θ = opposite/hypotenuse  & Cos θ = adjacent/hypotenuse ∴ Tan θ = Sin θ/Cos θ (The hypotenuses cancel out) As Cot θ = 1/Tan θ  So, we can also represent Cot θ as Cos θ/Sin θ.

Anode Ray Experiment

→Anode ray experiment was conducted by E Goldstein. →These rays are also known as canal rays. →This experiment helped in the discovery of the proton. Apparatus Used A discharge tube  was taken in which there were 2 electrodes i.e. Anode(+ve) and the cathode (-ve). The tube was filled with an inert gas. A perforated or porous cathode was used. A layer of zinc sulphide was placed at the back of the cathode. There was a vacuum pump in the tube. High voltage (5000v-10000v) was allowed to flow through the system. It was observed that when the gas was at 1atm(atmospheric pressure ) no change was seen in the tube.  When the   pressure   was decreased inside the tube, a glow could be seen at the back side of the cathode.

High School Pedia

It is an initiative by some students to spread the light of knowledge to everyone and everywhere. It was started in the year 2015 and has grown rapidly in the past few months. By the means of this website, we try to provide information on every topic that we can reach up to. You can find different articles on this website. All these articles are written in simple language so that everyone can understand it and learn from it. We at High School Pedia believe in creative learning and this is the reason why we add our own edited graphical representations in every article. Once a very learned man said, “Knowledge increases by not keeping it to yourself but by sharing it with others”. And we follow the same motto “Share to Learn”. The team of High School Pedia tries its best to provide you with the best and original content. Unlike many other websites, High School Pedia is famous for its original and inspiring content.

Levitation 2

LEVITATION II To be completely honest I was going to start this with a pun. I did think of one but it doesn’t float… I am sorry I just had to. Anyway, this is the second part to the article on super cool ways of making things levitate. Go check the first part out if you haven’t already. Actually, the first part may have become repulsive with all the magnets and stuff, but I promise this will be more attractive. Get it? No? I’ll stop now. I am just going to jump straight into it. 1.    Electrostatic Levitation I know you are probably sick and tired of magnets but they are the best way you know… This method is somewhat similar. You remember that cool science experiment you did with two straws attracting or repulsing each other based on their charge? So basically using the same principle we can make a charged object levitate. But before you try it, let me tell you it won’t be easy. Even impossible according to our Mr. Earnshaw. He even made a law (the law is

Isotopes, Isobars and Isotones

Isotopes These are elements which have the same atomic number but different atomic mass . They have the same atomic number because the number of protons that are inside their nuclei remains the same. But, they have different atomic mass because the number of neutrons that are also inside their nuclei is different. As the number of protons inside nuclei remains same, therefore the overall charge of the elements also remains same as in isotopes: no of protons = no of electrons . Hence, as isotopes overall charge remains neutral, therefore their chemical properties will also remain identical.   Therefore, Isotopes are chemically same but physically different.

Upcoming Marvel Movies

Hey, guys! Today we are going to talk about the 5 most awaited and upcoming marvel movies. Everyone is eagerly waiting right ?!            1) GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY vol.2 (2017) Last month marvel shared the first teaser of Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2   describing it as the official sneak-peak. All five main characters- star lord, gamora, rocket, Drax and 'baby' groot . It is set two months after the first movie where the ravagers find out that peter quill double crossed them about the infinity stone (orb). That's all. Everything else is yet to be discovered.
