Some Topics of Physics

According to me, these are some of the important stuff that you need to know about the topic Light and I am pretty sure that this page is really going to help you.
So let's  go!

1. Ray of Light : A line drawn in the direction of propagation of light is called a ray of light.
2. Beam of Light : A group of rays of light emitted by a source of light is called a beam of light. A light beam is of three types.
(i) Parallel beam : A group of light rays parallel to each other is known as parallel beam of light. 7.
(ii) Divergent beam : A group of light rays spreading out from a source of light is called divergent beam of light.
(iii) Convergent beam : A group of light rays meeting at a point is called convergent beam 8. of light.
3. Reflection of Light : There are some surfaces which have ability to send the light back in the same medium when light strikes it. This 9. phenomena of sending the light back in the same medium by a surface is called reflection of light.
(i) The incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal at the point of incidence, all lie in a same plane.
(ii) The angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection, ∠i = ∠r.
4. Image : When light rays meet or appear to meet after reflection from a mirror,then it is called an image.
1. Real Image : It is a kind of image which is formed by actual intersection of light rays after reflection.
2. Virtual Image : It is a kind of image which is formed by producing the reflected rays backward after reflection.
5. Plane Mirror : Plane mirror is a piece of glass whose one side is polished by using silver paint, which is covered by a coating of red paint to protect the silver layer.

Semiconductors and Communication System

This chapter can be divided into following categories:- Classification Types of Semi-Conductors p-n junction diode Biasing of Diode Rectifiers Special Diodes (Zener, Photodiode, LED and Solar Cell) Transistors Logic Gates Communication System In the next few posts I will be posting in the same manner ie. (in bullets form) for your convenience and I hope that helps you in completing your syllabus. Classification Materials can be classified on the basis of conductivity as Conductors, Insulators and Semi Conductors. The basic difference among all the three is the difference of energy in between the Conducting and the Valence band. This can be seen here. Note- The range of conductivity should be kept in mind. For Semi-Conductors the energy difference is not very large but not even very less. So by providing proper conditions they can show conductivity. Types of Semi-Conductors Further we can say that there are two other types of semi con...

Solid States of Matter

STATES OF MATTER We can classify matters into 3 types:- Solids  Liquids  Gas In this chapter, we will be discussing only Solids. SOLIDS In our daily life, we see many types of solid objects. Some of which can easily break and some of which are very hard. Some with a very shiny surface and some with no lustre at all. These are some of the physical features of a solid. They can be classified into two types on the basis of there crystal type:- Crystalline  Amorphous  Crystalline types are those whose structure is ordered in the entire Lattice. For Example, Diamond, Crystalline Glass etc. Amorphous are those whose structure is not ordered or ordered in a very small region. For Example, Graphite, Glass, etc. The Crystalline solids have a different unit constituent. The lattices formed by these units are called Bravais Lattices . There are basically 14 types of lattices. I have uploaded the structures from Wikipedia and no need t...

Apologies for late posts

Dear Friends, I am really sorry for the late posting of the posts and I feel that it might have somehow been a problem to all of you. Hence I promise you that I will be posting at least three topics revision notes on my blog every week. I wanted to do more but due to my own schedule I am unable to push it further. I have got high hopes from this blog and now being in college I can devote myself to this blog even more. Just to let you know, from now onwards this blog will mostly be a go to place for those students who are looking for some reliable resource from where they can get enough revision for there weekly tests or phase tests or any related tests of JEE/NEET. I was also a JEE aspirant but due to my lack of note making, I could not get into the IIT's. But nevertheless, I am now a student of DTU civil branch and I strongly recommend you all to make proper notes and go through them as this creates the difference between an IITian and the rest. But still, if due to some reaso...
