BEGINNING OF THERMODYNAMICS ?

Thermodynamics is the the science of energy . in which we study about how energy could  be converted into  primary interest with high efficiency .

although The first commercially-successful engine that could supply continuous power to a machine, was the atmospheric engine, invented around 1712 , but there was not proper scientific explanation which can describe how system is running and at what condition's it could get more efficiency .

First scientific formulation of thermodynamic was made by a french military Engineer Sadi Carnot often described as Father of Thermodynamic . He published his work in a book  -
Reflections on the Motive Power of Fire and on Machines Fitted to Develop that Power . 

He was the first person talked about how steam engine's or system efficiency could be increased by increasing the temperature difference between source body and sink body . 

source body - Is the body from which system takes heat as input to convert it into primary interest  also known as higher thermal reservoir .

Sink - after converting input heat in to primary interest remaining heat will be ejected to a different body known as sink (generally environment) also known as lower thermal reservoir .  


More the difference between the temperature between source and sink more will be the efficiency of the system, this discovery also satisfy THE LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY .

EFFICIENCY -
This implies toward one important result that regardless of fuel used in system the efficiency of the system depends on the temperature of source and sink  .

EFFECTS OF ALCOHOL ON BODY !

W ell ! i don't know how often you drink and which form of alcohol you prefer - beer , wine , whiskey or rum but all of them give one kinda of haziness which keeps you away from any kind of instantaneous action you want to do . Don't know what i want to do embarrass myself or what but i am having strong urge of sharing about my haziness after drinking . first time when i found myself drunk i was in my 9th standard pretty drunk and the liquor i used that time was moonshine not because it was my first choice but because of its low cost which eventually suited my budget that time . i was in boarding school and it was very difficult for my friends to protect me from expelling but anyway they did it very decently well i feel very gratitude for them whenever i recall that time . i also vomit for the first time yeah ! that is my story well i could have make it more embarrassing but i don't it to be so , let it be . first of all i want t...

WHAT IS THE FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS ?

FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMIC ENCOURAGED BY -                                                                " the law of conservation of energy". which have its own importance but when we go deep further in thermodynamics we confronts the prodigious truth that work and heat are not energy .                                                                "they are the media by which you can transfer The Energy " . FOR COMPLETE PROCESS OR FOR CYCLE - heat as input for a system completely transfer's into work or vice-ve...

WHAT IS NANOTECHNOLOGY ?

N anotechnology is the science of manipulation of matter according to our need at the Nanoscale of the order of 10^-2 . it have tremendous possibilities in near future because of its ability of making advance material  with unique chemical property which suits according to condition   .  This term technically first time introduced by physicist Richard Feynman in 1959 in his lecture with topic of There is plenty of room at the bottom . but at that time technology was not enough to implementation of his idea in practical application's . Primarily there is two type of approaches we use to construct anything  - I)  Top-to-bottom approach  II) Bottom-to-top approach Top-to-bottom approach :- when we cutoff resource to make our desirable shape is known as Top-to-bottom approach ; Ex- wooden chair .  Bottom-to-top approach :- when we construct structure by starting from its minute cells to approaching required shape of structure is known...
