short notes?

Supersonics:
                      Supersonic speed is a rate of travel of an object that exceeds the speed of sound (Mach 1). For objects traveling in dry air of a temperature of 20 °C (68 °F) at sea level, this speed is approximately 343 m/sMost modern fighter aircraft are supersonic, but there have been supersonic passenger aircraft, namely Concorde and the Tupolev Tu-144 whose flights were suspended in 2003. Both these passenger aircraft and some modern fighters are also capable of super cruise, a condition of sustained supersonic flight without the use of an afterburner. Due to its ability to super cruise for several hours and the relatively high frequency of flight over several decades. Some large bombers, such as the Tupolev Tu-160 and Rockwell/Boeing B-1B are also supersonic-capable.

 What is Pollen Allergy?
                                         Allergy to Polen is called Pollinosis. These pollens are usually from animophilous plants. Although their mission is to fertilize parts of other plants, many never reach their targets. Instead, they enter human noses and throats, triggering a type of seasonal allergic rhinitis called pollen allergy, which many people know as hay fever or rose fever (depending on the season in which the symptoms occur). Of all the things that can cause an allergy, pollen is one of the most widespread. Many of the foods, drugs, or animals that cause allergies can be avoided to a great extent; even insects and household dust are escapable. Short of staying indoors when the pollen count is high--and even that may not help--there is no easy way to evade windborne pollen. Antihistamines are seen to be effective against such allergies and can be used on physician’s prescription only.

short notes

Pedometer:
It counts steps of the person. Commonly used in training and exercise. It has a great utility for patients, sports players, soldiers and even common people who may use it for physical fitness purpose. The device does its function by taking into the count the motion of the person’s hips. Today, there has been programs that make your smart phones as useful pedometers since these phones have motion sensors.

 Magnetic Resonance Imaging:
                                                    A technique used in medical sciences to investigate the anatomy of the body, specially the brain. It uses strong magnetic fields to form images of body. It has many uses in the field of neurology, cardio-vascular, oncology and many other fields of medical studies. The scans have been known to cause twitching, heating of the body and discomfort to the patients. Moreover the scan has side-effects and thus measures are being taken to limits it use in the health industry.

Tidal Energy:
                       It is a form of Hydel Power and also a type of renewable energy resource that has a potential for energy generation. It is more predictable the wind energy and solar power, however despite that the equipment can be very expensive and maintenance consuming due to the environment around such form. Moreover, it can be harmful to marine life and various ways are being suggested to make it environmental friendly. Tidal Steam engines and Tidal Barrage can work out in Pakistan, given the country lacks energy resources. However special care shall be taken into account for the marine life.

what is tharmostat?

Thermostat
                     As the name indicates Thermostat aims at maintaining the temperature of a device at a certain level. Thermostat is often attached with Air-conditioners which aims at maintain the room temperature, similarly one can find them on Press Irons too. Thermostat does this by switching heating or cooling devices on or off, or regulating the flow of a heat transfer fluid as needed, to maintain the correct temperature. The name is derived from the Greek words thermos "hot" and statos "a standing".

what is thermistor?

Thermistor
                   A combination of word thermal resistor. It is useful device in identifying temperatures in digital devices and was discovered by Michael Faraday in 1833. It can achieve huge precision between the temperatures of -90 to 130 degrees Centigrade. Applications range from digital thermostats to 3D printers and self setting devices of temperatures.

what is Gene?

Gene
          It is a molecular unit of heredity of a living organism. Genes hold the information to build and maintain an organism's cells and pass genetic traits to offspring. All organisms have many genes corresponding to various biological traits, some of which are immediately visible, such as eye color or number of limbs or height. The field of science which explores and look into the study of genes is called genetics.

what is bird flu?

Bird Flu
              Bird Flu or Avian virus refers to an influenza caused by viruses adapted to birds. It seems to effect all of the birds and especially chicken, however only 2 cases were reported to have caused death in human. Moreover, there has been no case since 2003. Despite the fact that the virus has been lethal to other animals it seems that the preventive measures have been effective in curtailing the virus. It is also estimated that the virus is seasonal and may return again in extreme cold weather.

what is theodolite?

Theodolite
                  An instrument used in surveying. It measures horizontal and vertical angles with a small telescope that can move in the horizontal and vertical planes. The measurement is done by pointing it at a target object. The device has a great precision with angles to seconds of arc. Theodolites have been adapted for specialized purposes in fields like metrology and rocket launch technology.

what is plaster of paris

Plaster of Paris
                          Plaster of Paris or Gypsum Plaster which is used in making statues and coating of walls. It is also used to fix the dislocated as well as fractured bones as it is dries quickly to acquire the molded shape. It is a good finishing agent rather than a load-bearer. Its chemical name is Calcium Sulfate.
