Specific Heat of Solids For solids and liquids, we define the specific heat capacity as the quantity of energy that will raise the temperature of unit mass of the body by 1K. When a solid is heated through a small range of temperature, its volume remains more or less constant. Therefore, specific heat of a Read more about Specific Heat of Solids[…]
Menelaw’s Theorem Theorem: If a transversal cut the sides BC, CA, AB of a triangle in D, E, F respectively then BD/DC. CE/EA. AF/FB = -1. Proof: Let A (x₁, y₁), B (x₂, y₂) and C (x₃, y₃) be Let the transversal be ax + by + c = 0 BD/DC = The ratio in Read more about Menelaw’s Theorem[…]
Ceva’s Theorem Theorem: If the lines joining any point P, to the vertices A, B, C of a triangle meet the opposite Sides in D, E, F respectively then (BD.CE.AF)/(DC.EA.FB)=1 Proof: Let A (x₁, y₁), B (x₂, y₂), and C (x₃, y₃) be the vertices. Let us consider point P is (0, 0) We know Read more about Ceva’s Theorem[…]
Elastic Properties of Matter 1) Elasticity: The property of matter by virtue of which a body tends to regain its original shape and size after the removal of deforming force is called as Elasticity. 2) Plasticity: The property of matter by virtue of which it does not regain its original shape and size after the Read more about Elastic Properties of Matter[…]
Inverse Trigonometric Functions – Form f(f⁻¹(x)) Function of the form f(f⁻¹(x)): where f(x) is Trigonometric Function (i)Consider function f(x) = sin(sin⁻¹x). Domain of the function is [-1, 1] Also, sin (sin ⁻¹(x)) = x sin(sin⁻¹x) = x for all x ϵ [-1, 1] (ii)Consider function f(x) = cos(cos⁻¹x).

Law of Radioactive Disintegration The spontaneous breaking of a nucleus is known as Radioactive Disintegration. According to Rutherford and Soddy made experimental study of the radioactive decay of various radioactive materials and gave the following the laws: Radioactive decay is a random and spontaneous process. It is not influenced by external conditions such as temperature, Read more about Law of Radioactive Disintegration[…]
