Artificial Intelligence refers to the simulation of the human brain in machines so that these intelligent machines can act, think and behave like humans. These machines should be rational and should give the best possible solution. It is based on three principles of learning, reasoning and perceiving. Alan Turing’s Test to check whether “machines can … Read more
When asked about notable scientists in history, who would you think about? Albert Einstein? Isaac Newton? Thomas Alva Edison? Little did we know Nikola Tesla, one of the greatest minds until the last decade. He was long neglected by the world despite his greatest inventions which are still predominant across the world today. He was … Read more
Do you ever wonder how Google suggests you similar searches in future based on your past search activity list? Or even Amazon recommends similar product list on your search. Be it Netflix, Amazon, Flipkart etc., they all are built on the concept of Machine Learning (ML). What is Machine Learning? Machine learning can be defined … Read more
Internet of Things (IoT) is the networking of smart devices (electronics, mechanical and digital machines) that have unique identifiers that can collect data from the external world through sensors and feed them to databases for further processing. The advancements made in the IoT domain in recent years have changed the level of services they offer … Read more
An Embedded System is one that has computer hardware with software embedded in it as one of its important components. These are computing systems designed to serve a specific purpose. It should not be confused with desktop, laptop or mainframe computers which have wider and general-purpose applications. To distinguish between the two lets understand by … Read more
A MATLAB for loop is a repetition control structure that allows you to efficiently write a loop that needs to execute a specific number of times. The MATLAB for loop syntax is given as for index = values <program statements> … end MATLAB for loop Examples 1. Write a program to display numbers from 1 … Read more
Biot Savart Law is used to determine the strength of the magnetic field at any point due to a current-carrying conductor. This law is given by two physicist Jean-Baptiste Biot and Felix Savart. Hence this law is known as Biot Savart Law. This law is of fundamental importance and can be verified experimentally. Consider a … Read more
J. A. Fleming introduced two important rules to determine the direction of motion or force in case of motor and the direction of induced current in case of a generator. These rules are called as Fleming’s left hand rule (used for motors) and Fleming’s right hand rule (used for generators) respectively. When a current-carrying conductor … Read more
Electrical Bus bar is an important component in the installation of an electrical distribution system. It is used for collecting current from incoming terminals of a power system and distributing it to various outgoing terminals. It acts as a junction between incoming power and outgoing power. Before going into deep in concept, let us first … Read more
The Daniell cell is a battery which is named after the British chemist and meteorologist John Frederic Daniell, who invented it in 1836. The Daniell cell e.m.f. is 1.12 volt. This cell is used in experiments where a continuous and constant current is required. Construction The Daniell cell diagram is shown in figure 1. It consists … Read more
