Talk about "VAN ALLEN BELT"

CHARGED PARTICLE ARRANGED IN REGION AROUND THE EARTH


  • The Van Allen Belt is a region about 700 to 60,000 km above the surface of earth which is populated by energetic charged particles.The shape of the region is like a torus or a doughnut and the charged particle which exist in the region are those which have been trapped by the earth magnetic field. This is closely related to the phenomenon of the auroras in the polar region-bright lights seen because charged particle from outer space hit the outer atmosphere and radiate light in the process. this belt was discovered by J.Van Allen in 1958 using the explorer stat-elite.



  • There are two distinct torus shaped belts-the inner and the outer one-with density which are a maximum at the equatorial latitudes and which drop off to zero beyond latitudes of approximately 60 in each hemisphere.
  • The outer belt,roughly in the region of 20,000 to 60,000 KM above the surface of the earth, consist of very energetic particles.These are mostly electrons but also consists of charged ions.The inner belt,approximately extending from 700 to 10,000 KM above the earth, predominately consists of non relativistic protons and electrons. 




  • The gap between the Outer and Inner belts arises out of the interaction of low frequency radio waves with the charged particles in the region.Charged particle that accumulate there interact with the radio waves in a way that causes them to be ejected from that region.Various sources of radio waves have been produced.

  • The charged particle that populates the inner and outer Van Allen belts do not originated from the same source.the electron which dominates the outer belts are injected into the outer region during geomagnetic storms.The proton,which dominates the inner belts are products of neutron decay after being created in the collisions of the cosmic rays with the air molecules in the upper atmosphere.

Why do the Indian telecom operators offer their services with 28 days validity, not 30 days?😡😡

Here telecom operator are very clever, b ecause telecom operators want to earn money of 13 months instead of 12 months. Let do the calculation and find out why telecom operators are offering 28 days validity. Each month they get 2 days more, therefore in a year they get additional 24 days. There are 7 month which has 31 days so they get additional 7 days.Now in case of February  ,it has only 28 days not 30. So the total number of days they get are=24+7-2=29 days. So if you recharge 12 times then more 29 days are left in a year.🤔🤔 Means for another 29 days you have to recharge from that telecom operator.😫😫 So you have to recharge 13 times in a year instead of 12 times in a year. So telecom operators provide 28 days validity only. First one telecom operator started and then another telecom operators also understood this concept and they also applied 28 days validity both in data packs and voice packs.😱😱😱

Why swiss Bank is Famous for Black Money?

Hello everyone, here we are going to talk about Swiss Bank. When a person hear the name of this bank the only thing that come to our mind is Black Money. When any kind Fraud occur we hear the name of Swiss Bank and Government also tell that he is going to bring all the black money from Swiss Bank. Swiss Bank is located  in Switzerland and was established in 1872 as Basler bankverein. According to Switzerland banking law bank officials cannot disclose the name of account holder name unless and until Swiss court order them. Swiss court give the order only when there is a criminal charge on account holder name for example money laundering, fraud etc. The account in Swiss Bank are secretive account. Anyone who open a bank account in Swiss Bank he has to complete his KYC as normal bank do. But they never reveal the identity and address of account holders name. The account is in coded digits. In bank statement the account holder name is also not disclosed to any one. Here Swi...

How Hydroelectric power produced?

Water has been used to power man-made mechanisms for hundreds of years, mostly in food production in the form of a mill wheel to grind corn. However, using the kinetic energy of water probably became a reality earlier than you thought. In 1878, inventor Lord Armstrong lit his home in Northumberland using only the power of a nearby waterfall. It’s not until the latter half of the 20th Century that we began to take advantage of the massive potential of hydroelectric power. Intriguingly, both the dirty and environmentally unfriendly coal power plants and clean, green hydro-power use almost identical technology to generate power. Central to a coal-fi red plant is a turbine: coal is burned to produce heat energy, which is used to boil water into steam, which then drives a turbine. Hydroelectric power removes the coal and steam elements and instead, fl owing water turns the blades of each turbine.  By damming a river next to a drop in elevation and releasing a co...
