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.😱😱😱

How Energy conversion from coal is done?

Single generator sets of over 600 MW are now used in the UK, though there are many smaller generators in use. A 600 MW generator can supplythe average needs of over 1 million UK households. Three or four such generators are typically installed in a single large coal-fired station which isoften sited close to a coal mine, away from the city dwellers who consume the electricity. Such generators are usually driven by a compound arrangement of highpressure, intermediate-pressure and low-pressure turbines, increasing in size as the pressure decreases. Modern turbines rotate in a speed range from 1500 to 3500 r.p.m., usually 3000 r.p.m. for the UK’s 50 Hz system. For large coal-fired plant the steam pressure could be 25 megapascals (MPa) with steam temperatures of 500–600 °C to improve the thermodynamic efficiency. In nuclear reactors, which operate under less demanding conditions, the steam is superheated to about 5 MPa and 300 °C. Modern water tube boilers are complex and have ...

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...
