Simple Harmonic Motion

Science > Physics > Oscillations: Simple Harmonic Motion > Simple Harmonic Motion In this article, we shall study, the concept of linear simple harmonic motion (S.H.M.) and derive expressions for displacement, velocity, acceleration, and period of n object performing the linear simple harmonic motion. Linear simple harmonic motion is defined as the motion of a […]

Introduction to Oscillations

Science > Physics > Oscillations: Simple Harmonic Motion > Introduction In this article, we shall study the concept, oscillation, oscillatory motion, and simple harmonic motion. Oscillatory Motion: A to and fro periodic motion of a body along a definite path is called oscillatory motion. e.g. the motion of heavy bob of a pendulum, the motion […]

Three Domains of Life

Science > Biology > General Biology > Diversity of Living Organisms > Three Domains of Life Prior to 1969 organisms were classified into two kingdoms: the Plant Kingdom and the Animal Kingdom and on the basis of a cell, organisms were classified into two categories Prokaryotae or Monera (which comprised bacteria) and Eukaryotae (which comprised animals, plants, fungi, […]

Need for Classification of Living Beings

Science > Biology > General Biology > Diversity of Living Organisms > Need for Classification of Living Beings Scientists have identified and named 1.7 to 1.8 million species of living organisms. Of these, about 1.2 million are animal species while 0.5 million are plant species. The group of insects is the largest group with 1.025 […]

Characteristics of life

Science > Biology > General Biology > Introduction to Biology > Characteristics of life Biology is a branch of science which studies living beings that all plants and animals including humans. Biology examines the structure, function, growth, origin, evolution, and distribution of living things. It classifies and describes organisms, their functions, how species come into existence, and […]

The Doctrine of Lis Pendens

The term ‘Lis’ means ‘litigation’ and ‘Pendens’ means ‘pending’. The concept of lis pendens is based on a Latin maxim “pendent lite nihil innovature”  means “during the pendency of litigation, nothing new should be introduced.” Under this doctrine, the principle is during the pendency of any suit regarding the title of the property, any new interest […]

Alimentary Canal: Brief Idea

Science > Biology > Digestion and absorption in Human > Alimentary Canal: Brief Idea The digestive system in humans consists of an alimentary canal and associated digestive glands. The human alimentary canal (aliment: nourish) is a continuous muscular digestive tube about 8 to 10 m long that runs through the body. It is open at two ends […]
