The document discusses a variety of scientific topics, including the composition of the sun's corona, uses of instruments like a sphygmomanometer and devices like a neutron bomb, as well as facts about electrical energy measurement, effects of glycerol on car radiators, the Richter scale, and theories of evolution. It also covers recent moon findings, treatments for conditions like impotency and rickets, buoyancy principles for ships, pearl composition, calorie needs, unit conversions, and tests for conditions such as AIDS.

The part of the sun which is visible during eclipses only is known is corona
Sphygmomanometer is used for measuring the systokic and diastolic blood
pressures of man
The most abundant gas in air is nitrogen
The most commonly found acid in nature is acetic acid This bomb is used to destroy living beings but would not damage the buildings and other property neutron bomb • Electrical energy is measured in terms of units which are also termed as KWH • In cold countries, the radiator water of cars is mixed with glycerol. This is done to reduce the freezing point of water. • If the richter scale shows a value of 7.2 then the seismograph indicates an earthquake of very high intensity • The theory of orihin of speies is based primarily on the process of natural selection • Common coal used in our households is anthracite • Some recent findings on moon which point out towards the possibility of settlement of man on moon include ice reserves on the poles • Viagra is a medicine for treatment of male impotency • Rickets is a disease which is caused by the deficiency of vitamin D • When a ship enters waters of the sea from a river then its level rises as the sea water is saline and hence bouyancy force is more • The major constituent of pearl is calcium carbonate • A healthy person needs 2500 calories per day • The value of one (marine) naut is 1852metre per hour • Acid and base combine to form salt and water • Celullose could be obtained from wood and cotton • ELISA test is done for the detection of AIDS
