Archimedes’ Principal

Introduction: Why our body feels lighter in a swimming pool? Why does an object’s weight decrease in the water? How can heavy ships float in the water while a needle sinks in it? All these questions can be answered through Archimedes’ Principle. To understand Archimedes’ Principle, we are going to take an example of object … Read more

What Is Viscosity?

Viscosity: The resistance was shown by the fluid while flowing is due to the viscosity. So, in simple words, we can say that the viscosity is friction in the fluid and this friction is produced between the adjacent molecules of the fluid. So, if the fluid has higher viscosity that means it has higher friction … Read more

Bernoulli’s Principle And Its Equation

Bernoulli’s Principle is named after the scientist “Daniel Bernoulli’s”. Who stated that if the speed of fluid (liquid or gas) increases then the pressures in the fluid decrease. This phenomenon of Bernoulli’s Principle happens because the total energy of the moving fluid remains constant throughout the flow and to maintain this constant value of energy … Read more

Waterlogging

Waterlogging happens when there is an excessive amount of water in a root zone of plants. This accessive quantity of water diminishes the oxygen accessible to plants’ roots. Waterlogging can be a significant limitation to plant development and creation and, under specific conditions, will cause plant demise. This limitation may not be obvious until the … Read more

Rainwater Harvesting and its Methods

Rainwater Harvesting: Rainwater harvesting is the method by which rainwater is collected, stored, and further utilized for different purposes. Rainwater is collected from a special type of roof. This rainwater is sent to a tank, reservoir, or aquifer which has percolation. Rainwater Harvesting Methods: There are two methods of rainwater harvesting. Surface Runoff Harvesting. Rooftop … Read more

What is a Soak Pit

A soak pit, also known as leach pit. It is a covered, porous-walled chamber that permits water to slowly soak into the ground. In the soak pit, pre-settled sewage from the septic tank is delivered to the underground chamber from where it penetrates into the neighboring soils. It is directly connected to a primary treatment … Read more

Rain Gauge And Types Of Rain Gauges: Explained With Diagram

What Is Rain Gauge? A rain gauge is a meteorological instrument to measure the liquid precipitating in a given amount of time per unit area. It is also known as an udometer, pluviometer, or ombrometer. We will discuss various types of rain gauges with schematic diagrams. Types Of Rain Gauges There are two types of Rain Gauges as … Read more

Delta and Duty of Water | Water Requirement of Crops

The water requirement of the crops is defined complete amount and the method of water needed for a crop from the time it is planted to the time it is collected. Different types of crops have different water requirements. It also depends on the condition of agricultural soil. Every crop planted demands a certain amount … Read more

Sprinkler Irrigation System – Types, Uses & Advantages

The sprinkler irrigation system is similar to natural rainfall in which water is sprayed into the air and allowed to fall on the ground surface like rainfall and through small orifices or nozzles, the spray is expanded by the flow of water under pressure. With the assistance of siphoning, the weight is typically acquired to top off … Read more
