Pandora has a free version which comes with a lot of features but you will get distracted by ads. Price Plans of Pandora Pandora has three price ... Read More

Radio Transmission Radio waves are useful for transmitting data over long distances through air medium as it uses radio signals for transmission. Radio waves are broadcasted with Amplitude Modulation and Frequency Modulation schemes which use antennas. To travel long distances, AM radio signals use the lower carrier in frequencies which is higher than FM broadcasting but lacks sound quality at the receiver end whereas AM signals have better bandwidth which produces good sound quality and supports stereo signals during transmission. The radio waves used during transmission are omnidirectional, so signals can be propagated through all directions which provides a higher ... Read More

Introduction Radiation is an emission of energy in the form of waves or particles. This includes the emission of Alpha particle, Beta particle, and Gamma particle. Alpha particles are also denoted by Alpha rays or Alpha radiation. It has two protons and two neutrons. What is an Alpha Particle? Alpha particles are formed during α - decay of radioactive elements such as uranium, thorium, radium, and plutonium. Alpha particles are positively charged particles. The alpha particles can be denoted as α or α2+. As alpha particles are similar to helium nuclei they are also denoted as doubly ionized helium ... Read More

Radon and Radium are two elements in the periodic table that are often associated with each other due to their similar properties and radioactive nature. However, there are several differences between the two elements, including their physical and chemical properties, occurrence in nature, and health effects. What is Radon? Radon is a radioactive gas that is a byproduct of the decay of radium. It is part of the decay series in which uranium decays into multiple elements until reaching the stable element, lead. Radon decays into polonium and alpha particles. The longest-lived isotope of radon is radon-222 which has a ... Read More

Introduction Radioactivity, as the name introduces, is the emission of energy waves by unstable atomic nuclei of certain elements. There are 38 radioactive elements in the periodic table. The radioactive elements are highly unstable and try to become stable through successive disintegration. During this process, it emits radioactive waves. Essentially these unstable atomic nuclei hardly try to become stable while in this process, it emits radioactive waves. The alpha, beta and gamma rays are harmful to our body and out of these radiations the gamma rays are the most harmful radiation. The emission of radioactive rays is called radioactive ... Read More

MRI and fMRI are used to produce images of the body using magnetic fields and radio waves. MRI creates structural images of the body. where fMRI creates functional images of the brain. The manner in which they are used is another difference. While fMRI is largely used for research, MRI is mostly used for diagnostic purposes. Read this article to find out more about MRI and fMRI and how they are different from each other. What is MRI? MRI uses MRS (Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy) technology to measure the specific chemical biomarkers that are present inside your body. A sizing magnet, ... Read More

Introduction The constant of Stefan Boltzmann is used to calculate the heat amount that is radiated by the blackbody. It preoccupied all the radiant energy that strikes it and releases the total radiated energy. In understanding the constant of Stefan Boltzmann's law, the blackbody is crucially important because that discusses the amount of power the sun provides off the provided temperature. This law constantly helps in analysing and examining the amount of heat and energy released by the earth into space. It permits scientists to examine and identify the amount of hotness of the sun that is based on the ... Read More

Introduction The radiation detector's development has been initiated with the transistor's invention. The recent detectors utilise calorimeters for the calculation of detected radiation energy. The plates of photography were utilised to recognise the left of tracks by the interactions of nuclei. The plate of photography can be placed in the way of a beam or material of radioactivity. Fogged may be visible or considered from the radiation exposure when the plate has been developed. In the earliest time, the electroscope was the main utilised radioactive detector. These were mainly used as a gold leaves pair that might get charged ... Read More

Introduction The gamma decay is a kind of radioactivity in which unsteady atomic nuclei gives out excess energy by a spontaneous electromagnetic process. The most notable form of gamma decay is gamma emission, gamma rays flows in the form of photons, and packets of electromagnetic energy of very short wavelength. Gama-decay also includes two key electromagnetic processes, internal pair production and internal conversion. In internal conversion excess energy present in the nucleus is directly transferred to one of its orbiting electrons and in the case of internal pair production excess amount of energy is converted in the particular electromagnetic field ...

Introduction In physics, the relation of” beta and gamma functions” is popular to compute the various different functions. Gama is a type of single-variable function that represents the variable functions of the particles while beta is a type of dual variable function that is applicable for computing as well as representing the amplitude in terms of reggae trajectories. The relationship between the beta and gamma function is presented with the formula “B(p, q)=(Tp. Tq)/T(p+q)” In order to evaluate the integral functions of the gamma beta function, this formula is very crucial. What is the relation between beta and gamma function? ... Read More
