"British came to India merely as humble traders but either lit. misfortune of Indians or the fortune of the British they became th, ruler and ruled this vast country for centuries very successfully brilliantly."  It is indeed a Herculean task to sum up the circumstances, reasons. godly favors and other facts which made the traders the despotic rulers. Some historians opined that British empire   as established almost i; absent mindedness but it will be an unreasonable point of view to concluded as without perspective of circumstantial success, the British could not become the ruler. So keeping in view the reasonably acceptable motivation of all the who established British Raj in India, some justice could be done with the concluding scenario. Let us study the various factors and circumstances prevailed and tin changing motives with bright future perspective which turned the commercial people into successful rulers. The first factor to be more...

"Homi Jahagir Bhabha is mostly known as the chief architect of India’s  nuclear programme. However, his contribution to India*s development goes far beyond the sphere of atomic energy. He had established two great research institutions namely the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR) and the Atomic Energy Establishment at Tomboy (which after Bhabha's death was renamed as, the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC). He played a crucial role in tlie development of electronics in India. Bhabha was outstanding scientist and a brilliant engineer." Homi Jehangir Bhabha was bom on October 30, 1909 in a well known (his family both on his father's and mother's side were related to the house of Tata) Parsi family. His father was a famous barrister and his family had a tradition of learning.

"The Palestine problem look birth with the disintegration of the Turkish Ottoman Empire after the world war 1. Palestine was also among the several former Ottoman Arab territories which were placed under Great Britain under the Mandates System of the League of Nations pursuant to the League's Covenant (Article 22). " Except Palestine all of these Mandated Territories became fully independent 8tHcs. The exception was Palestine where, instead of being limited to "the rendering l of administrative assistance and advice" the Mandate had as a primary objective the implement million of the "Balfour Declaration" issued by the British Government in I917.declanng support for "the establishment of a national home for the Jewish people in Palestine." During the years of the Palestine Mandate from 1922 to 1947 large-scale Jewish immigration from abroad, mainly from Eastern Europe took place, the numbers swelling in the 1930s with the notorious Nazi persecution of Jewish more...

YOU NEED

• A ruler

  It is well known fact that if you rest a ruler one on each end of your extended forefingers, and if you move them towards each other they will perforce meet at the centre of the ruler. The explanation is simple. Should one finger travel ahead of the other, the weight on that particular finger increases. Therefore, it raises the friction between the ruler and the finger. This in turn lowers the friction on the other finger allowing it to travel ahead. Now the question is: In a situation where both fingers are at the centre of the ruler, what is likely to happen should you move them back to the ends of the ruler. Trying guessing the answer before you  try the experiment. You are likely to be surprised.  HOW DOES IT WORK?  When one finger begins to move, its friction more...

YOU NEED:

• Two pencils
• A file and a pin
• A rectangular piece of cardboard

   Cut notches along the edge of a pencil. Stick a pin through the centre of the cardboard and attach it to the pencil's  eraser as in the top illustration. The hole in the "propeller"' must be a bit larger than the pin, in order to cut down on friction. In your left hand, hold the end of the pencil. With your right hand, rub the second pencil back and forth across the notches as in the second illustration. If the tip of your first finger slides along the right side of the notches, the cardboard "propeller" will rotate rapidly  towards the left. If the pencil being rubbed is moved a trifle forward so that the tip of your thumb now slides along the left side of the notches, the "propeller" will stop and start turning towards the right! The more...

YOU NEED:

• A matchbox
• A paper match
• A cylindrical cork

 Three impossible feats can be pulled off if you can be a little sneaky. It is fun and a great source of entertainment for your friends. Consider these three feats: Drop a matchbox from a height of six inches (15 centimeters) over a table top so that it lands on its end and remains upright. 2.   Drop a paper match so that it lands and stays on its edge. 3.    Drop a cylindrical cork so that lands on one end. The way to go about it: For1: Push the matchbox drawer about an inch upward holding the box vertically. You can conceal the protruding top with your hand. When you drop it over the table top, the match box will not bounce.   HOW DOES IT WORK?   For 1:     Once the matchbox hits the table more...

YOU NEED:

• A pencil
• A square of paper 6” x 6”
• A tape & rubber band
• A ball point pen with cap (as the illustration)

  A pen can be made to jump back into its cap as though pulled by a invisible hand, a magnet or a rubber band. Take the pencil and roll a square of paper around it like a tube about six inches (15cm) long. Tape it. Now tape the end of a rubber band to one end of the empty tube, as shown in the illustration and then push the rubber band into a tube. Procure a ballpoint pen with a cap shaped as in the illustration. Point first Insert the pen into the tube. Go through the motion of trying to hook its pointed end on the rubber band. Take  the pen some way out of the tube. It zooms back into the tube as if jerked by more...

YOU NEED:

• Two dice
• A glass

  This is  one experiment that you can baffle your friends with. Take the two dice and hold it against the side of the glass as in the illustration. The tricky part is to throw the dice into the air, one at a time and ensure that it drops in to the glass. It is easy to toss and drop the first dice in the glass. But if the same thing is  tried with the second dice, the first one tends to fly out of the glass. Allow your friends to try and do it. They won't be able to do it either. Here is how you can catch both the dice in the glass.   HOW DOES IT WORK? The secret is not to toss the second dice. The idea is to let the dice drop and then lower the glass fast more...

YOU NEED :

• A sheet of newspaper

Hold a sheet of newspaper in your left hand and let the sheet hang down as shown in the illustration. Now can you poke your index finger through the paper? While it seems unlikely, it can be done. Jab your finger as rapidly as you can at the centre of the paper. You need to be fast and then only will your finger go through the sheet    HOW DOES IT WORK?  When you jab your finger into the newspaper the air pressure behind the newspaper maintains a rigidity in the paper which is also reinforced by the newspapers inertia, this is what causes it to tear.  

YOU NEED:

• Two kitchen towel rolls
• A large cylindrical can 

Gingerly place one toilet paper roll on top of the other as shown in the top illustration. Rotate the top roll with your fingers along the table top.  As you would expect, the bottom roll rotates in the opposite direction and the two rolls travel together merrily. This  time around change the top roll with a cylindrical can as in the illustration. Should you rotate the can, do you think the cardboard tube will move smoothly with the can or will it travel faster or slower than the can? The surprising thing is that the two companions travel as  if they were sized buddies.   HOW DOES IT WORK? Simply the point of contact between the can and the tube travel on the same speed and cover the same distance. This has nothing to do with the sizes more...
