🌕 Tropical cyclones in the Indian neighbourhood begin as ‘depressions’ or a gradual build-up of warm air and pockets of low pressure. About 35% of such formations intensify to ‘cyclones’ and only 7% intensify to ‘very severe cyclones’. ( The above datas relate to why tropical storms occurred in may month. This should be seen in that context. If you don’t understand leave it. pick up datas only which use feel you can use it somewhere. Be selective.)

🌕 India saw increase in emission of carbon dioxide in 2018 by 4.8% from 2017, according to a report by the International Energy Agency (IEA). 

🌕 India’s emissions growth in 2018 was higher than that of the United States and China — the two biggest emitters in the world according to a report by the (IEA). 

🌕 According to the report, despite this growth the per capita emissions in India remain low at only 40% of the global average.

🌕 According to the report, Emissions from India accounted for 7% of the global CO2 burden in 2018 compare with US’s 14% 

🌕 According to the report, China, the United States, and India together accounted for nearly 70% of the rise in energy demand. 

🌕 India bears the notorious burden of repeatedly having the maximum number of cities on the WHO’s list of most polluted places. 

🌕 The Health Effects Institute (HEI) report says, Toxic air proved fatal for over 1.2 million in 2017 in the country. 

🌕 HEI report predicts that the lifespan of a child born in India today is likely to be two and a half years shortened as against the life expectancy loss of 20 months in countries that have controlled pollution.

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

By
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?

By
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 ...
