Atmospheric Refraction: Definition, Causes, and Effects
What is Atmospheric Refraction? Atmospheric refraction refers to the bending of light as it travels through the Earth’s atmosphere. This occurs because the atmosphere consists of layers with varying optical densities due to differences in temperature and pressure. Light bends toward the normal when moving from a rarer to a denser layer. As light travels…

Autophagy- Fasting as an Inducer
What is autophagy? Just like our homes produce garbage, our body’s cells generate waste too. Similar to how garbage bins help clear waste from our homes, our cells have their own waste disposal system called autophagy. In this process, damaged components of the cell are broken down and recycled into useful by-products for the cell…

Pulley System for Load Distribution: Complete Explanation
What is a pulley? A pulley system uses an inextensible string. When one end of the string is pulled by 1 meter, the other end moves by the same distance. This demonstrates the concept of constrained motion or constrained length. Applying a force to one end of the string directly affects the motion at the…

Transformer Works on the Principle of Faraday’s Law of Mutual Electromagnetic Induction
A transformer works on the principle of Faraday’s Law of Mutual Electromagnetic Induction. Faraday’s first Law states that when a conductor is placed in a varying magnetic field, an electromotive force is induced. Let us understand how this phenomenon helps us increase and decrease the voltage in circuits using a transformer. This law is at…

A Step-by-Step Guide to Acing Your Practical Examination
Practical examination is an essential component of school and college curricula, and students often feel nervous about it. While theoretical lessons have standardized preparation processes, practical lessons and exams have a relatively less common preparation strategy. Therefore, for students to succeed in these exams, it is important to focus on key essentials that must be…

The Modern Periodic Table
In the modern periodic table, the properties of elements follow a periodic pattern based on their atomic numbers. The atomic number, which represents the number of protons in an atom’s nucleus, increases by one for each subsequent element. This pattern is the basis of the Modern Periodic Table, established by Henry Moseley in 1913. This…

What is Power of Hydrogen (pH)?
The power of hydrogen, or pH (also called the potential of hydrogen), measures the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution. The formula for calculating the pH of a liquid is: pH = -log [H⁺] A higher pH indicates lower acidity and higher alkalinity in the solution. Conversely, a lower pH means higher acidity and…
