Science > Physics > Circular Motion > Angular Displacement, Velocity, and Acceleration Angular Displacement: For a particle performing a circular motion the angle, traced by the radius vector at the centre of the circular path in a given time is called the angular displacement of the particle at that time. It is denoted by ‘θ’. Its […]

1 Comment on Introduction to Circular Motion

Science > Physics > Circular Motion > Introduction Concept of Circular Motion: The motion of a particle along the circumference of a circle is called circular motion. It is a translational motion along a curved path. Examples: The motion of the earth around the sun. The motion of a satellite around the planet. The motion of […]

Amplitude Modulation

Science > Physics > Communication > Amplitude Modulation The first amplitude modulated signal was transmitted in 1901 by a Canadian engineer named Reginald Fessenden. He used a continuous spark transmission and placed a carbon microphone in the antenna lead. This transmission was very crude, signals were audible over a distance of a few hundred metres. The […]

Modulation

Science > Physics > Communication > Modulation Before the concept of the modulation, the signal used to be sent in form continuous wave with periodic interruption as in morse code. To code, send and decode such message high expertise was required. The direct current is not suitable for transmitting the data because of its steady nature. […]

Science > Physics > Communication > Communication Channel: Line Line Communication: Space communication is unguided communication. In this communication channel, there is no physical contact between the transmitting and the receiving antenna. The transmitted signal spreads in all directions. This results in the attenuation of the signal. To avoid the attenuation we use line communication. […]
