`The Richter Scale is used to measure the magnitude of an earthquake. The magnitude is a measure of the size of an earthquake, but instead of being a direct measure of the intensity of earthquakes, which is a reflection of the strength of sound waves emitted by seismic earthquake, a phenomenon that can be detected at great distances from the epicenter of the earthquake. Since earthquake magnitude can be determined only

for routine measurements by the seismometers, the scale has become an important measure that normally recorded on seismograms. The scale is logarithmic – This means that a factor-of-10 the difference in energy of the real earthquake corresponds to a difference of an integer on the scale.

The Pleistocene period in history land, 1.8 million years to 10,000 years ago, witnessed profound changes in the Earth's climate, characterized by repeated glacial and interglacial events. There glacial intervals up to 30 during this period. Milutin Milankovitch, a Serbian mathematician and astronomer, calculated in the 1930s that the orbital parameters of Earth changed with frequency of about 1,000,00 to 20,000 years. These were responsible for variations in solar radiation received from the surface causing glaciers interglacial climate changes. The exploration of the seabed since 1960, has identified over the timing and Milankovitch proved right.

• WHAT ARE Milankovitch cycles?

Astronomer Milutin Milankovitch developed the mathematical formula that underlying these orbital variations. It was hypothesized that when some parts of the cyclic variations are combined and occur simultaneously, are responsible for large changes in the Earth's climate (even ice ages). A 1976 study published in the journal Science examined samples of deep-sea sediments and found Milankovich's theory corresponded to periods of climate change. In fact, ice ages had occurred when the earth was going on the different stages of orbital variation.

• I read that Sun will become a GIANT red after consuming its hydrogen supply. WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO SOL after this phase?

Yes, according to astronomers, the sun is about 5 billion years old, and are expected to Sun thousand consume all the hydrogen in it and become a red giant. It will be so big then it will sink even planets around them. Then there will be reactions Nuclear, with the participation of the large supply of helium in it (formed from hydrogen) and the heavier elements. As a result becomes a white dwarf, a star of small radius. It is estimated that the radio will be one hundred times smaller than the current radio. Gradually loses its brightness and become a black dwarf. However, stop worrying. It take at least five million years for this to happen.

The upper limit of 1.44 solar masses (or solar mass) of a star, to end his life as a white dwarf star, known as the Chandrashekar Limit. This is the basic principle for determining the future of a star after the red giant phase. The stars with a mass more than 1.44 solar masses, undergo a supernova explosion and the end of his life as a star neutron or a black hole. This limit was discovered by Indian astrophysicist S

Chandrashekar and therefore has been named after him.

o What is planetary albedo?

Planetary albedo is the fraction of incident light reflected from a surface. A shiny surface, like ice or snow, has a high albedo (near 1, which represent the total reflection), while a dark surface, such as coal or soot, has a very low. albedo (close to 0, representing complete absorption). In the solar system, the Moon, which has a bare rocky surface, has an albedo average of 0.12 (reflects 12 per cent of the light reaching it). The Earth, which is partly covered with clouds, has an average albedo of 0.37, while the albedo of Venus, which is completely covered cloud, is O.65.

• What is the Chandrasekhar limit?

In the 1930s, Subramanya Chandrasekhar, now recognized as the founder of relativistic astrophysics, addressing the important question: What happens to a star, once it has burned all its nuclear fuel? Chadrasekhar answer is that depends on the mass burning core left behind. If the mass of this core (mind you, not the brightest star mass) is less than 1.4 times the mass of the sun, the core will retire as a white dwarf star. Immediately above this limit, say up to three times the solar mass, the center become a neutron star. If the core mass is even higher, a black hole formed. In an ordinary Shining Star, the gravitational force is balanced by nuclear reactions. In white dwarfs and neutron stars, for complex quantum forces. In a black hole, gravity dominates. For this pioneering work later Chandrasekhar received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1983.

• EN A beam of visible light in vacuum?

No, the light rays can not be viewed in a vacuum. When a ray of light enters a dark room Annex through an aperture, the light is scattered by dust particles suspended in air and thus we see the path of a beam of reality we see the fall of the particles powder substance that can scatter light. This explains the dark in space, although not many light sources. We can see only light sources and objects falling on the road rays.

• What is the principle altimeter NOT WORK?

There are basically two types of altimeters-altimeters pressure and the radio altimeter. Pressure altimeters are the aneroid barometer calibrated to indicate altitude instead of pressure. It is based on the principle of the fall atmospheric pressure with increasing altitude. Corrugated capsules inside the casing extend to a gain in height. This expansion is magnified with the help of gears and levers to move the indicator over the dial. The average pressure at sea level is 1013.2 millibars or 29.92 inches of mercury, which is taken as zero elevation and no no drop of 1 millibar for every 32 feet (approximately) the gain in height. The instrument is calibrated accordingly to indicate the loss / gain in pressure in terms height gained or lost. Depending on the setting of pressure or data, the instrument reads the elevation (above MSL) or height absolute altitude (above ground level – AGL). A radio altimeter is an aid of radar, which is effective only from 20 feet to 2,500 feet which is used primarily as a system of ground proximity warning in mountainous terrain.

or PSEUDOHALOGENS WHAT?

Pseudohalogens are groups formed by combining two or more elements of P block (the table regular) with a unit negative charge, for example, CN-(CN less) of cyanide group a combination of carbon and nitrogen with negative charge. They are called pseudohalogens because they form covalent compounds, complexes similar to the halogens, the elements of group 17 in the periodic table. They differ from the halogens, because they are able to polymerize Unlike the halogens and their complexes are paramagnetic.

• HOW DOES THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION manage their needs for water and oxygen?

ISS Environmental Control and Life Support System (ECLSS) aid in the management of water and oxygen for astronauts. The ECLSS Water Recycling System (WRS) claims of wastewater from the shuttle's fuel cells, urine, oral hygiene and washing hands, and by condensation of moisture from the air. Without such careful recycling 40,000 pounds per year of water on Earth would be needed to resupply a minimum of four crew of the life of the station. The main source of oxygen is the electrolysis of water, followed by oxygen in a pressurized storage tank. Hydrogen left over from the division of water escapes into space. In ECLSS racks of hardware, this machine combines with excess hydrogen dioxide carbon in the air in a chemical reaction that produces water and methane.

• HOW ZERO GRAVITY created on Earth?

Zero gravity conditions on the outcome of weightlessness and the body begins to float in a closed space. A more accurate term is microgravity or reduced gravity C NASA-9B aircraft and Time Zero Gravity Corporation, Boeing 727 to create these conditions by the time flight, parabolic arcs. By changing the flight path, they can to create different values of the g-force, and therefore different degrees of apparent severity. More people are experiencing these conditions in preparation for space tourism or adventure.

• WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE tenth planet?

The tenth planet outer solar system was discovered recently. At this point, is about 97 times farther from the Sun than the Earth and is the farthest known object in the solar system. Mike Brown (Caltech), along with colleagues Chad Trujillo (Gemini Observatory, Hawaii) and David Rabinowitz (Yale University) found. It is known 2003UB313 temporary, a new name has been proposed to the IAU.

• What effect do the current HAVE oceanic climate of the earth?

Ocean water and currents affect the climate. Because it takes much more energy to change the water temperature of the earth or air, the water heats and cools more slowly than either. As a result, inland climates are subject to various temperature ranges extreme coastal climates, which are insulated by nearby water. The layer of the ocean surface, so that the surface currents move a large amount of heat absorbed more than half the heat that reaches the earth from the sun. The currents that originate near the Ecuador are warm, the currents flowing from the poles are cold.

• WHY STARS TWINKLE NIGHT?

Stars appear to glow or change its brightness all the time. In fact, most Stars shine with a steady light. Air moving (sometimes called turbulence) in the atmosphere of the Earth causes the starlight to get slightly bent on their journey from the distant star through the atmosphere for us in the field. Part of the light reaching us directly, but some are slightly curved. This gives the illusion open and close. Stars near the horizon appear brighter than others. This is because the atmosphere is much denser near the horizon that between Earth and another star in heaven.

• HOW DO WE KNOW ABOUT THE EXISTENCE OF PLANETS MILLION miles away from U.S.?

The planets like Pluto at the edge of our solar system can be seen and photographed by powerful optical telescopes. Distant extrasolar planets many light years from our Sun can not be captured, including high-resolution telescopes. Large planets orbiting around a star can have a very small gravitational force in the star. This causes a wobble minutes in the rotation of the parent star that can be detected by monitors of high sensitivity spectroscopy. The existence of the planet, therefore can be viewed indirectly.

• HOW TO astronauts in space?

• HOW IS ZERO simulated gravity?

Simulation of zero gravity, while still within the gravity of Earth is accomplished in a manner similar to that of an artificial satellite. When a body moves in a trajectory circular, experiences centrifugal force acting on it. This force points radially outward and depends on the speed and radius of the trajectory. Given this factor, if a plane flies in a circular arc trajectory, then the passengers experience a centrifugal force pointing away from the earth. At a certain speed, exactly offsets the force of gravity, and passengers experience weightlessness or zero gravity.

• How many satellites currently rotating Around the Earth?

While nothing in the orbit of the earth is technically called a satellite, the term is often used to describe a useful object placed in orbit purposely to perform a mission or task. About 23,000 items of space debris objects was inadvertently placed in orbit or have outlived their usefulness are floating above Earth. The actual number varies depending on the agency is counting. Payloads going to the wrong orbit, satellites with run-down batteries and rocket debris all contribute to the account. This count is almost 26,000.

• WHY DO RED Some people have "eye" in photographs?

The light, usually a camera flash, enters the subject's eyes, and reflected back on the lens. The red color comes from the color of the retina, which is lined with blood vessels. To prevent "eyes red ", the string of comments from the lamp must be interrupted. The most effective way is to use indirect lighting or lower house, causing the reflection of the look at away from "^ of the lens. Another remedy is to reduce the size of the pupils of the eyes of the subject, effectively preventing the bounce back syndrome. Therefore, some camera models of fire from one or more pre-flashes before taking a picture, the smaller flashes are to adjust the eyes to bright light, the decrease in pupil size.

• WHAT IS THE COMPOSITION OF SAND?

1. The sand is a non-cohesive, loose granular material that comes from the rocks due to wear large pieces of rock over water or wind in favorable weather conditions. The composition of the sand depends on the bedrock, the most common minerals silica and feldspar be. Less common are iron ore. Silica comes in the form of quartz and is composed of plagioclase feldspar. Additional mineral fragments and include Moscow rare epidote, chlorite, garnet and zircon. Some sand deposits may contain magnetite, glauconite or gypsum. Sands rich in magnetite are dark, while rich in gypsum have a green tint.

• WHAT ARE fullerenes?

Fullerenes are one of the three allotropes element (the same in two or more forms) of carbon. The other two are diamond and graphite. Scientists Kroto, Curl and Smalley discovered fullerenes at Rice University in September 1985. One of fullerenes – Buckminsterfullerene – consists of 60 carbon atoms linked together to form an almost spherical C60 molecule joined hexagons (20) and pentagons (12). The bonds have the same provision of panels in a football game. Fullerenes can be prepared by passing an electric shock through the graphite rods in a helium atmosphere. We now know that buckminsterfullerene one is likely to form soot in flames.

• What is microlensing?

According to Einstein's theory of general relativity, light has mass. When light passes near a massive object is attracted to her and she changes direction. Hence, when an astronomical body is between the earth and a larger, more distant astronomical objects, the light that enters the body distant land focuses on land by the gravitational pull of the body through This is something similar to focus sunlight on a piece of paper through a lens, and therefore called astronomical microlensing. Astronomers use microlensing to search for new planets, and observe from a distance, faint and neutron stars.

• WHAT WATER memory? ,

The water is said to have the power of memory – if the chemicals are dissolved in water and then completely removed through a chemical process, water may still retain some properties of dissolved chemicals. Although this concept seems difficult to accept or understand, the French scientist Jacques Benveniste, allegedly demonstrated. However, another scientist, he could never repeat this experiment.

• WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SECOND AND THIRD GENERATION generation of technology?

The main difference between the second generation (2G) and third generation (3G) technology is the data. 2G services were developed mostly with voice services in mind, but are able to provide relatively slow (14.4 kbps) data services at high speed.

The scientists conjecture that a comet exploded over the sky caused the blast air who created the red rain

• WHY POWER HORSE is named?

When the steam engine began to make the horses work in the mines during the 1800s, mine owners began to ask how many horses it would replace an engine. James Watt, inventor of the steam engines, mathematically calculated to match the horses to the engine power. So he invented the term power. Watt measured the ability of a great horse to pull a load and found that he could pull a weight of 150 pounds while walking at 2.5 miles per hour. This works to 33,000 lb-ft per minute or 550 foot-pounds per second.

• HOW DOES THE EARTH IN THE PROXIMITY WARNING SYSTEM WORKING AN AIRCRAFT?

System Ground Proximity Warning (GPWS) is designed to alert drivers because the planes were in immediate danger of wandering in the soil. Another common name is the land of the collision warning system. Don Bateman is credited with inventing GPWS. This system monitors an aircraft high above the ground, determined by the radio altimeter. A team of tracks from these readings, calculates trends, and warns that the captain with visual and audio messages if the plane or exceed certain thresholds defined flight configurations also known as modes. The modes are: excessive descent rate, excessive. Closing rate terrain, altitude loss after takeoff, land mine unsafe and excessive deviation below glidescope. Corrective action taken then.

• What is a pyrometer?

The river carries Huang yellow soil deposits (huangtu) to the Yellow Sea, which it receives its name.

• WHAT IS BLACK ON BLACK SEA?

The deep waters of the Black Sea is supposed to be darker than normal sea water, because the Black Sea has rich content of microalgae. In addition, the Black Sea was called and in ancient times, perhaps because it was very stormy and therefore difficult to navigate. It was considered inhospitable sea, because barbarians took their costs. According another theory, the Black Sea is so named because it is in the northern Mediterranean Sea, and in ancient times, black was used in the compass to mark the north.

If you suspect that these particles, the passenger may be retained for further review. The entire process takes about 15 seconds.

• WHY is the path of Pluto Unlike all the other planets?

The peculiarity of the path of Pluto is that both his eccentricity and inclination to the ecliptic, the rough plan in which the orbits of other planets are, are extremely high. As Pluto was discovered in 1930, astronomers have been unable to fully explain the particularity of its orbit. One hypothesis proposed originally a moon of Neptune, and then somehow escaped the gravity Neptune in 1978, when Pluto's moon, Charon, was discovered, new theories have been proposed on the origin of both Pluto and Charon. * It is now believed that both formed independently, but after some time there was a collision between Pluto and Charon original. Among the debris from that collision,
