How a circular saw works?

Using a torque force, these clever cutting tools make light work of wood



 Circular saws rely on providing a large ‘torque’ in the centre of a hole in the blade. As a force is applied to one side of the hole, a torque force is created much like when using a spanner on a nut, although signifi cantly faster. When cutting through an object such as wood, the circular saw is placed fl at with the saw pointing down. The wood is clamped in place. By slowly moving the blade through the wood it will produce a clean cut. There are several types of circular saw, most spinning at up to 3,500 rotations per minute (rpm) to make a clean cut through an object. Some connect the motor directly to the saw for a one-to-one speed ratio. Others use a combination of large and small cogs to alter the revolution of the saw and ultimately the speed. For example, by attaching a large gear cog to a smaller one on the blade, usually at a ratio of two to one, a motor turning at 1,750 rpm will actually move the blade at 3,500 rpm

Gullet 

The teeth are designed to remove any material shed from the object it is cutting. This allows for a clean cut with no rough edges.

Double gear 

In this double gear system, a large cog is powering the smaller cog by applying a large torque force, which increases the number of revolutions.


Blade hole

 Although most saws use a round hole, some use a diamond shaped hole for a higher torque force.

Tip

 Carbide is a compound of carbon and iron, which is sometimes used to make the teeth. It is stronger and longer lasting than steel.

Teeth

 For each revolution, the saw will cut further and more swiftly into an object if there are more teeth

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.😱😱😱

20 Interesting science fact (PART 1)

1/ The speed of light is generally rounded down to 186,000 miles per second. In exact terms it is 299,792,458 m/s (metres per second - that is equal to 186,287.49 miles per second). 2/ It takes 8 minutes 17 seconds for light to travel from the Sun's surface to the Earth. 3/ October 12th, 1999 was declared \\"The Day of Six Billion\\" based on United Nations projections. 4/ 10 percent of all human beings ever born are alive at this very moment. 5/ The Earth spins at 1,000 mph but it travels through space at an incredible 67,000 mph. 6/ Every year over one million earthquakes shake the Earth. 7/ When Krakatoa erupted in 1883, its force was so great it could be heard 4,800 kilometres away in Australia. 8/ The largest ever hailstone weighed over 1kg and fell in Bangladesh in 1986. 9/ Every second around 100 lightning bolts strike the Earth. 10/ Every year lightning kills 1000 people. 11/ In October 1999 an Iceberg the size of London broke free...

How Electronic ink works?

Used increasingly in digital products, how does this technology work? Electronic ink (or electrophoretic ink) consists of millions of microcapsules. Each one contains positively charged white particles and negatively charged black particles, all suspended within a clear fluid. When these microcapsules are subjected to a positive or negative electric field, the corresponding particles rise to the top, becoming visible to the eye and colouring that microcapsule.  eBook reader displays coat electronic ink onto a sheet of plastic film, which in turn is laminated to a layer of circuitry. This circuitry forms a pattern of pixels that can be controlled by the display’s software driver, allowing images and text to be displayed in the form of a traditional page of physical paper.   Electronic ink displays differ from LCDs by utilising ambient light to illuminate pixels, with the rays merely reflecting off their surface. This means they have very low power demand, a...
