Can any object travel at the Speed of Light?

 

Among the physics light is always a amazing thing. The reason for this is the speed of light. We all know the exact speed of light in vacuum is 299,792,458 m/s. Light has so many theory in particle theory Newton stated that light is composed of corpuscles which has different color due to different size and in wave theory Christian Huygens proposed that light is wave and travel through a medium called Luminous Ether. Later the study of  Michael Faraday inspired James Clerk Maxwell to study the EM radiation of light due to which it is found out that light is EM wave. In Quantum theory, Max Planck research that light travel in form of packet of energy known as Quanta. 

In special theory of relativity, Albert Einstein stated that objects mass depends on its energy. He give a formula ( Img-1 ) according to which an object can not travel at the speed of light. If you observe the formula perfectly, you will know. The reason is, if an object is travelling at the speed of light its mass will be infinity. Which is impossible. If the object travel at the speed of light the time will become slow.

Indeed some scientist believe that there is a particle which can travel faster than speed of light. The particle is hypothetical but if it exist it will change of the law physics. There is no evidence of such particle. Gerald Feinberg proposed that tachyon can be quanta of quantum field with imaginary mass. To know more about tachyon. Click here.

SCADA Network

So welcome to my blog. In this post I am gonna write about SCADA network. This actually come to my mind because of web show named Mr. Robot. The show is awesome if you love hacking believe me you will enjoy the series. So basically the SCADA ( Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition ) is a control system architecture comprising computers, networked data communications and graphical user interface for high level process supervisory management, while also comprising other peripheral devices like programmable logic controllers and discrete proportional-integral-derivative controllers to interface with process plant or machinery. SCADA networks used for monitoring and controlling the  industry like  telecommunication, water plant, etc. It is one of the most commonly used industrial control system, in spite of concerns about SCADA system being vulnerable to cyberattack.  This network is used for gathering info about the system, transferring that info to central site, alerting...

NVIDIA Tesla V100 - First Tensor Core GPU

  8x NVIDIA Tesla V100 32GB Server As we all know NVIDIA processor are so famous now a days. It give a perfect gaming performance and people used it worldwide. The thing is that it is not only use in personal computer but also at data center, where so many super computer are present for providing services. So, NVIDIA Tesla V100 is a first tensor core GPU. It is especially built to focus on AI, High Performance Computing ( HPC ) and graphics. It is powered by NVIDIA Volta Architecture. It comes with configuration 16 and 32GB and have a performance up to 100 CPUs in single GPU. A single server node with V100 GPUs can replace 60 CPUs nodes. DATA CENTER GPUs Image © NVIDIA NVIDIA V100 for NVLINK  Performance with NVIDIA GPU Boost for double precision is  7.8 teraflops and single precision is 15.7 teraflops. Deep learning performance boost is 125 teraflops. Interconnect bandwidth with bidirectional is 300 GB/s. It have memory capacity of 32/16 GB HBM2 with bandwidth 900GB/s. I...

What is Exoplanetology?

Hello, In this post I have talk about Exoplanetology which is a part of Astrology. Exoplanetology is the study of  planet beyond our solar system. Perhaps the greatest challenge for exoplanetology is simply finding such planets. Planets are so small and dim compared to their parent stars, that spotting them against the backdrop of the star is extremely difficult. Confirmed discoveries of exoplanets have only been made since 1988, though the Italian philosopher Giordano Bruno proposed their existence in the sixteenth century. Observatories on Earth and in space have since found thousands of candidates for planets around other stars and new discoveries are being made on a daily basis. Scientists working in this field use an interdisciplinary approach to their research: astronomy and astrophysics are particularly important for detection and observation; astrogeology and astrobiology. Exoplanetology is a young science and there are plenty of Things We Don’t Know.  Learn...
