RUBBER AND THIER FACTS

A material which can shrink and stretch is Rubber .Natural and synthetic rubbers are used extensively in consumer products and for industrial purposes. Common products include tires, pencil erasers, inflatable objects, building foundation components and gaskets.There are unknown amazing facts in rubber.

•In Each year,a rubber tree can produce 19 pounds of rubber.

•Rubber strongness is based on the amount of sulphur.

•Rubber is made up of accidentally by George.

•Natural rubber is made from the sap of a tree.

•Indians in South America used it hundreds of years ago.

•Rubber trees grow in huge farms called plantations.

•Natural rubber is one of the most important polymers for human society.

•Rubber is water-resistant, it is not damaged by water under any circumstances.

•Natural rubber band is biodegradable and renewable resources.

•Natural Rubber has excellent green strength and tack which means that it has the ability to stick to itself and to other materials which makes it easier to fabricate.

•The physical properties of rubbers are tensile modulus and strength.

•Rubber has specific gravity.

•The most of the rubber balls are not recycled.

•A Rubber trees reach a height of 15 to 30 meters and have a trunk diameter of up to one meter.

•The natural colour of caoutchouc is white and the name is derived from the Indian words ‘cao’ and ‘ocho’, which means “the drops of a tree“.

•The first rubber factory was founded near Paris in 1803. At that time, they mainly produced suspenders and garters.

WHY ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC OCEAN ARE NOT MIXED?

Nearly 72% of the earth is filled with water and it is present with different names- oceans, seas, rivers. Why are they named differently? There are five oceans namely Artic ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Indian ocean and Antarctic ocean . All the oceans are different in their physical and biological character called ocean clines. When we look at the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean junction, they do not mix. Is there any invisible Wall in between them? Many scientists have conducted research to solve this mystery. The Atlantic and Pacific Ocean have different chemical composition. The salinity of the water in the Atlantic Ocean is five times more than the Pacific Ocean. The density of water is also different, so even marine animals in Atlantic Ocean will not go to the Pacific Ocean. They cannot survive in other oceans. Atlantic and Pacific Ocean meet at Cape Horn. The narrow straight line formed by the water bodies is called Drake Strait. The Pacific Ocean is ...

The Chemical Lake

 Spotted Lake or Lake khiluk in Canada is richly concentrated with various minerals. It contains dense deposits of magnesium sulfate, calcium, and sodium sulfates. It also contains high concentrations of eight other minerals and lower amounts of silver and titanium. Most of the water in the lake evaporates over the summer, revealing colorful mineral deposits. Large ‘spots’ on the lake appear and are colored according to the mineral composition and seasonal amount of precipitation. Magnesium sulfate, which crystallizes in the summer, is a major contributor to spot color.  Originally known to the First Nations of the Okanagan Valley (Native American Tribe) as Khiluk, Spotted Lake was for centuries and remains revered as a sacred site thought to provide therapeutic waters. It is the most mineralized lake in the world. Each spot holds a different cure due to the unique chemical content found within each puddle. Lake Khiluk is considered a saline endorheic alkali lake. The Okanag...

Why Artificial Intelligence is important in Future

  Why AI is important :  As per the survey , 84% of businesses are moving towards an AI enabled ecosystem to sustain in the competitive world.Artificial intelligence is impacting the future of virtually every industry and every human being. Artificial intelligence has acted as the main driver of emerging technologies like big data, robotics and IoT, and it will continue to act as a technological innovator for the foreseeable future.  In the long term, an important question is what will happen if the quest for strong AI succeeds and an ecosystem becomes better than humans at all cognitive tasks. As pointed out by I.J.Good in 1965, designing smarter systems is itself a cognitive task. Such a system could potentially undergo recursive self improvement triggering an intelligence explosion leaving human intellect far behind. By inventing revolutionary new technologies such a superintelligence might help us eradicate war , disease and poverty and so the creation of strong AI mi...
