Unit of Conductivity
Conductivity, in general, may be of many types. It could be electrical, ionic, hydraulic, or thermal conductivity. However, conductivity is basically defined as a material’s ability to conduct electricity or heat. Apart from that, measurements are done in several ways and there are specific units of conductivity that are used depending on the circumstances. We…

Unit of Weight
When we study the unit of weight it can get a bit confusing sometimes. It’s because the weight is measured in the unit of force which is the Newton as well as in the standard base unit kilogram. Moreover, many tend to link weight and mass with each other even though they are scientifically distinct…

Unit of Density
What is Density? The density of material shows the denseness of that material in a specific given area. A material’s density is defined as its mass per unit volume. Density is essentially a measurement of how tightly matter is packed together. It is a unique physical property for a particular object. The principle of density…

Unit of Force
We all know who Isaac Newton is and it was his research that led to the establishment of the popular formula F = ma representing acceleration and mass of an object when force is applied. While students can check the article on force in detail, here we will learn about the unit of force. Well,…

Unit Of Pressure
Introduction: Pressure is usually defined as the amount of force applied to a certain area. The pressure is a physical quantity mainly expressed as the formula p = F/A, where F and A are force per area perpendicular to the surface. While we have already discussed everything about pressure in our earlier article, we will…

Uses Of Zener Diode
We are aware of the uses of Zener diode which is to permit the current flow in forward or reverse direction. Zener diode is a semiconductor device consisting of a P-N junction which conducts the current in reverse direction when a certain specified voltage is reached. It has a reverse breakdown voltage which means it…

Uses Of Transformer
Transformers are used to transfer current from one circuit to another without any physical contact between them and without changing the frequency or phase. There are various uses of transformer depending on the type. Some of the most common applications are mentioned below. According to the necessity, transformers are classified into: Power Transformers Distribution Transformers…

Uses Of Electricity
Imagining the world without any use of electricity is very difficult these days. Small things like study lamp to big things like a plane requires electricity to operate. Human civilization has become very modern, and electricity is needed everywhere. Here, some of the most notable uses of electricity on a daily basis are mentioned. Entertainment…
