Analemma



Analemma

Analemma is a diagram which shows the position of the Sun in the Sky. It is seen at a fixed location on the Earth and the solar. The position of the Analemma varies over the course of a year. The word Analemma, comes from Greek and means, the pedestal of a sundial

The reason the Analemma is in the shape of an 8 is because the Sun has different shapes on each of the 8 planets. It is because of the position of the Sun in the sky depends not only on the shape of the planets but also the angle of the planets rotational axis.

How Electric Current is formed?

How Electric Current is formed? Have you ever wondered how Electric Current is formed? Generally, the flow from one point to another through a medium is called a current. When an electric charge moves from one point to another inside a conductor or a semiconductor, it is actually conducting electric current. Electric charge carriers are micro particles that conduct the electricity. They can be protons, electrons, holes or ions depending on their availability in the conducting material.  Normally electrons and holes are responsible for conducting electricity. This process occurs when a Voltage or a Potential Difference is applied at the two ends of a conductor or a semiconductor. Thus Electric Current is formed when a Voltage of Potential Difference is applied at the two ends of a conductor or semiconductor, i.e. when a closed circuit is formed.
