Thermodynamics Thermodynamics is a branch of physics which deals with the energy and work of a system.Thermodynamics is the study of macroscopic systems for which thermal effects are important. These systems are normally assumed to be at equilibrium, or at least, close to equilibrium. Systems at equilibrium are easier to study, both experimentally and theoretically, … Read more
Elements of Climate and weather Climate is decided by a region’s climate system. A climate system has few major components: the Atmosphere, the layer, the cryosphere, and the land surface. The atmosphere is that the most variable a part of the climate system. The composition and movement of gases encompassing the planet will change … Read more
The Hidden Heat: Understanding Latent Heat of Condensation The world around us is constantly in flux, with water transitioning between its liquid, solid, and gaseous states. These transformations are not merely visual changes; they involve significant energy exchanges, often hidden from our immediate perception. One such energy exchange, crucial to weather patterns, climate dynamics, and … Read more
Rajasthan: Natural Hazards Types of Disasters and Disaster Risks in the State:- Types of Disasters : Disasters are broadly categorized as Natural and Man-made Natural Disasters are of several types, e.g. related to :- (i) Drought (ii) Floods (iii) Earthquake (iv) Fire (including lightening) (v) Cloudburst (vi) Landslides (vii) Hailstorms … Read more
Weather forecast There are two ways for weather forcasting: Short-range forecasting Meteorologists can make somewhat longer-term forecasts (those for 6, 12, 24, or even 48 hours) with considerable skill because they are able to measure and predict atmospheric conditions for large areas by computer. Using models that apply their accumulated expert knowledge quickly, accurately, and … Read more

Work power and energy Work Work is a measure of energy transfer that occurs when an object is moved over a distance by an external force at least part of which is applied in the direction of the displacement. If the force is constant, work may be computed by multiplying the length of the path … Read more
Navigating the Fury: Understanding Heat Waves The Earth is warming, and with it, the frequency and intensity of heat waves are on the rise. These periods of extreme heat, lasting days or even weeks, pose a significant threat to human health, infrastructure, and ecosystems. Understanding the science behind heat waves, their impacts, and the strategies … Read more
Chemical kinetics Chemical kinetics is that branch of chemistry which deals with the study of the speeds or the rates of chemical reactions, the factors affecting the rates of the reactions and the mechanism by which the reactions proceed. It concerns itself with the measurement of rates of reactions proceeding under the given conditions of … Read more
Properties of teflon Polytetrafluoroethylene or PTFE (more commonly known as Teflon) is a particularly versatile ivory-white and opaque plastic fluoropolymer; it is made by the free-radical polymerisation of many tetrafluoroethene Molecules, and is suitable for a wide range of applications in industries as diverse as aerospace, the food and drink Industry, pharmaceuticals and telecoms. Produced by … Read more
