Most of the nuclear reactors work on the principle of nuclear fission. The energy released in the reaction is used to turn water into steam. The steam is used to run the turbine. Diff types of nuclear reactor: Type of reactor Characteristics Light water reactor 1.    Boiling water reactor ·         Reactor core heats water which … Read more DMPQ: Discuss the types of nuclear reactors.

Uranium is one of the fissile material which is used for power generations. But All isotopes are not categorised as fissile. The certain minimum standards have to be met to qualify as fissile material: It should be able to sustain the chain reaction. It should have a high probability of fission when bombarded with slow/fast … Read more DMPQ: What are the qualities of a fissile material. Discuss the advantage of Thorium reactors.

Radioactivity is a physical process. As the name implies it is the act of emitting radiation spontaneously. In simple terms if atomic nucleus is unstable and want to loose some energy, it will release energy in the form of radiations. There are several types of particles or waves that may shoot out of a radioactive … Read more DMPQ: What is radioactivity? List down the application of radioactivity

Light fidelity(Li-Fi) is a revolutionary new technology that transmit high speed data using lights. It is perceived to be 100 times faster than Wifi technology which is based on radio wave communication. Potential application: Mobile connectivity: Increase in the mobile connectivity. Laptops, smart phones, tablets and other mobile devices can interconnect directly using Li-Fi. Short … Read more DMPQ: What is Li-fi technology? List down its application

Neutrinos are the elementary particles found in the universe, which have no charge and have very little mass. They are electrically neutral and have weak interactive force. They are generally formed in the nuclear core of the sun. Radio active decay is also one of the source of neutrinos. They have the unique property of … Read more DMPQ: What are neutrinos? How they are formed and list down their applications.

It is an advance technology of genetic engineering to rectify the abnormalities occurring in the mitochondria due to mutation. The mutation severely affects the functioning of mitochondria in the baby. As a result baby may suffer from disease like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson disease. In sexual reproduction, Mitochondrial DNA is obtained from exclusively from the mother. … Read more DMPQ: What is 3 parent child?

Genetic modified crop as the name suggest is modified form of crop in which nuclear material of parent crop is altered and modified to its advantage by use of genetic engineering. Example of genetic crops are Bt cotton, bt brinjal etc. Advantage: Drought resilient varieties, pest resilient varieties can be grown. This will bring sustainability … Read more DMPQ: What are GM crops? Discuss its advantage and issue involved.

A blockchain is a digitized, decentralized, public ledger of all cryptocurrency transactions. Constantly growing as ‘completed’ blocks (the most recent transactions) are recorded and added to it in chronological order, it allows market participants to keep track of digital currency transactions without central recordkeeping. Each node (a computer connected to the network) gets a copy of the blockchain, which is downloaded … Read more DMPQ: What is blockchain technology? List down advantage and application
