Electromagnetic Spectrum-1

Image
Authors Rajakani,  Bartholomew Richard Electromagnetic Spectrum Electromagnetic Spectrum is a combination of different electromagnetic waves with different frequency. EM waves were order from lower frequency to higher frequency range. oh what are that? " Radio waves, Microwaves, Infrared, Visible, UV, X Ray, Gamma Ray" How to remember everything., it is easy dude. Figure Credit: @chemistrywrites     Figure credit : Wikipedia Radio waves  Radio waves are an higher wavelength electromagnetic wave. Clark Maxwell first predicted radio waves with his theory, which measured as unit in Hz. you turn on a radio, the radio receives the radio waves in the air and converts them into an electrical signal, which is converted to sound waves, and the radio amplifier then boosts the sound waves so that you can hear the music. Figure Credit : India times      radio wave is broadcast in different frequencies which can include FM radio waves that broadcast between 88 MHz and 108 MHz, and AM

"And God Said, Let there be light: and there was light" -Maxwell equation

And God Said, Let there be light: and there was light  Maxwell equation for ligtht Genesis 1 verses 3 says like that mystery of formation of light, behavior also unknown upto 18th century. It was a century more scientist across the world revealed the knots with the help of Physics. James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879) Scottish Scientist worked on mathematics and Physics.His novel work was putting together the electricity, magnetism to bring up "Classical theory of electromagnetism". Maxwell equation paved a new concept of electromagnetism scientist valued his unified theory as "Second Unification in Physics" after Issac Newton. History of electromagnetic radiation       Four modern equation were describe the light as an electromagnetic radiation. But at first in end of 17th and beginning of 18th century no one know how the light forms.  Coulomb explained his electrostatics with his law. research on electrostatic field were developed. In 1825, Ampere explained his law wit

Brief histroy of Superhydrophilicity of Titania "Akira Fuijishima"

Titania is white powder pigment used in various purpose in day to day life like cosmetics, sunscreens, food, pharmauctic and various application. Mainly Titania was used as Photocatalyst for dye degradation, water splitting, CO2 reduction which applications where most dominant properties of titania was found by  Professor Kazuhito Hashimoto and his student Akira Fujishma   at University of Tokyo. the history was begun before half centuries. Discovery of Honda-Fujishima Effect Akira Fujishma was a grad student work with his supervisor found out using titania single crystal and copper wire with epoxy resin, when he apply water and passed sunlight through the system he observed air bubbles. He was excited to see the bubbles. then they found out production of oxygen water was separated they separate hydrogen from water.  Photocatalysis In 1972, the discovery that TiO2 photocatalysed decomposition of water was announced. With white pigment  showed an great surprise Fujishima defensed his do

"On A New kind of rays"_birth of X-Ray

Wilhelm Conrad Rontgen - German Mechanical Engineer&Physicist. In 8 Nov 1895, Rontgen discovered a new kind of ray named "x-ray" or "Rontgen ray".In 1901,he won prize in Physics to discover new electromagnetic radiation in shorter wavelength which has been breakthrough in medical field diagnosis radiology.    Discovery of X-ray  In 1888,  He was Physics chair in University of wurzberg, his family was in lowa US he decided to emigrate also accept an appointment at Columbia University, before the outbreak of World war 1 changed his plan. One Friday, in 1895 he was working in his laboratory at University of Wurzberg,  Röntgen was investigating the external effects from the various types of vacuum tube equipment—apparatuses from Heinrich Hertz, Johann Hittorf, William Crookes, Nikola Tesla and Philipp von lenard - when electrical discharge is passed  through them.   👨🏼‍🔬He repeated his experiment with one of Lenard's tubes in which a thin aluminium window cov

Snap! Crackle! pop💥

Cartoon Mascots characters  Snap crackle pop of kellogg's Crisped-rice breakfast cereal Rice Krispies. Snap the elder one wearing chef toque as a problem solver.  Crackle ,second one jokester wearing red sleeping Cap. Pop younger one mischievous wearing shako and toque. What's is the relation to this cartoon to Physics? "Physics realvent to all natural and our day to day life"  We already now the fundamental derivatives like Position, Position changes with respected to time nothing but Velocity, velocity changes with respected to time is acceleration. Ok what's acceleration changes with respected to time? It's Jerk. Yeah in our daily activity we feel jerk one of the fundamental derivative. One example   When we are in a car and accelerate as the lights change to green, our acceleration is not constant. In this situation our acceleration is changing, so the motion sensation we are feeling is more likely jerk. Ok then what is snap,crackle, and Pop? Snap is chang

         Paul Adrien Maurice Dirac was an English theoretical Physicist and Noble Laureate, one of the developer of Quantum mechanics and Quantum electrodynamics. In 1933, He shared  Nobel Prize with Erwin Schrodinger     " The discovery of new productive form of atomic theory".          He formulated the Dirac Equation  to describe the behavior  of Fermions and predicted the existence of antimatter. He reconciliated general theory of relativity in quantum Mechanics. He and Fermi joined to form new era called "Fermi- Dirac Statistics"          Dirac was always teased by his friends and colleagues because of his unusual character. Albert Einstein wrote a letter to Paul Ehrenfest , " I have trouble with Dirac. This balancing on the dizzying path between genius and madness is awful".          Dirac studied electrical engineering on the city of Bristol University Scholarship at the University of Bristol engineering faculty, which was co-located with the Merc
