Cathode Ray Experiment

This experiment was conducted by J.J. Thomson (Sir Joseph John Thomson) in the year 1897. This experiment proved that atom is made up of fundamental particles which are much smaller than the smallest atom 'hydrogen' This experiment helped to discover electron. According to J.J. Thomson, the cathode rays consisted of very light, small and negatively charged particles. He named the particles "corpuscles" which were later known as electrons

Animal and Plant Cells

Cells Cells are the basic functional, biological and structural unit of life. The word cell is a Latin word meaning ‘small room’. Cells are also known as building blocks of life. The branch of science that deals with the form, structure, and composition of a cell is known as Cytology. All organisms around us are made up of cells. Bacteria, ameba, paramecium, algae, fungi, plants and animals are made up of cells. Cells together form tissues. And tissue together makes an organ. History Of Cell The cell was discovered by Robert Hooke in 1665. He assembled a simple microscope and observed a very thin slice of cork under his primitive microscope. The cork was obtained from the outer covering of a tree called bark. Robert Hooke observed many little-partitioned boxes or compartments in the cork slice. These boxes appeared like a honey-comb. He termed these boxes as the cell. He also noticed that one box was separated from another by a wa...

Rutherford Alpha Ray Scattering Experiment

Rutherford Alpha Ray Scattering Experiment Hey, Guys, most of you might have heard about the alpha ray scattering experiment and if you want to know in detail about Rutherford's model and the experiment he conducted, this is the right place for you... But first: Things You Must Know Some basic information that will help you understand rutherford experiment properly: Proton is a sub-atomic particle which is positively charged and has a mass of 1u. Alpha particles are helium atom with a charge of +2 as they have lost 2 electrons. Alpha particles have an atomic mass of 4u. Gold is highly malleable and can be beaten into very thin sheets. Experiment Rutherford conducted his experiment in the following way: Rutherford took a very thin gold foil and bombarded it with high energy alpha particles. He placed a layer of zinc sulphide on the walls where the experiment was taking place because when alpha particles ...

Important Mathematical Constants!

Important Mathematical Constants Mathematical constants are those numbers that are special and interesting because they come up in the various fields of mathematics like geometry, calculus etc. These mathematical constants are usually named after the person who discovered it and they are represented by a symbol that is usually picked up from the Greek alphabet. Mathematical constants are by definition very important. In this article we will take a look at certain mathematical constants that are more commonplace than others. 1. π (pi) or Archimedes constant (~3.14159): π is defined as the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. This is probably the most popular mathematical constant. So π is the circumference of the circle whose diameter is 1 unit. You might have seen it popping up when calculating the area of a circle (πr 2 ) or the circumference of a circle (2πr). It has many uses throughout mathematics from calcula...

Catalysts

Catalysts When we hear the word catalyst, the first thing that comes to mind is the game “Mirror’s Edge Catalyst”. But actually, catalysts are chemical substances that speed up the process of a chemical reaction but do not used up in the process of speeding up. The process of using catalysts to speed up chemical processes is called catalysis. Some examples are: Ø Hydrogen peroxide decomposes to form water and oxygen. 2H2O2 à 2H2O + O2 But in the presence of manganese dioxide (MnO2) the process is sped up and happens a lot faster. Ø Cars use a catalytic converter to convert carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide. These contain Platinum to speed up the process and keep the car’s system getting backed up. Ø Ammonia synthesis also uses Iron as a catalyst Catalysts work by reacting with a reactant. This is called a catalytic action. The product of the catalytic action is a chemical intermediate, which can react with the other reactant at a faster pace and give...

Potential Energy

Potential Energy Introduction It is the energy of an object due to the virtue of its position, configuration and orientation. It is denoted by 'u'. There are various types of potential energy. Examples of Potential Energy: Water stored in dams contain potential energy. Elongated or compressed spring also has potential energy. Objects placed at a height contain potential energy. Two charged particle separated at a distance contain potential energy. Gravitational Potential Energy It is the energy of an object due to its position. Its value is taken as 0 on the surface of the earth. It is given by a formula: u = mgh u is the potential energy. m is the mass of the object. g is the acceleration due to gravity. h is the height of an object. Expression: work = force * displacement w = mg * h (as work = potential energy) Gravitation al Potential Energy = mgh Factors affecting gravitational potential energy: It is dir...

Olly- A robohub

HI guys! Technology has been developing at a very fast rate in recent years and has also helped in making our daily lives easier to a great extent. Today we have for you, another trending gadget-Olly. We have heard of many home controlling devices but Olly is different. It is a black donut that rises to greet you and swivels to face you when you address it. It responds not just with voice, but with mesmeric light patterns that help it to express itself. You can also say it is a robot with feelings. Why? ... We'll come to that later. It remembers your daily routine and actions and becomes like you to give you a better and a more personalized experience.
