Hyperloop

-


 

Hyperloop is a proposed mode of transportation that involves high-speed travel in a low-pressure tube. The concept was first introduced by entrepreneur Elon Musk in 2013, who suggested that it could offer a faster, more energy-efficient alternative to traditional high-speed trains, airplanes, and other forms of transportation.


The Hyperloop system would involve using magnetic levitation to propel pods through a tube at speeds of up to 760 miles per hour (1,200 kilometers per hour). The tube would be mounted on pylons, elevated above the ground to avoid interference with other forms of transportation, and equipped with a low-pressure environment to minimize air resistance.


One of the proposed advantages of the Hyperloop is its potential to significantly reduce travel time. For example, a trip from San Francisco to Los Angeles, which normally takes about six hours by car or one hour by plane, could take as little as 30 minutes using the Hyperloop. Additionally, the system could be powered using renewable energy sources, making it more environmentally friendly than many current modes of transportation.


While several companies are actively working on developing Hyperloop technology, there are still significant challenges to be overcome, including concerns around safety, scalability, and cost. However, proponents of the technology believe that it has the potential to revolutionize transportation and change the way we travel over long distances.

Siemens Ozoniser:  This Ozoniser consist of two co-axial glass tubes fused together at one end. The outer side of the outer glass tube and the inner side of the inner glass tube are finally coated with tin foils as shown in the figure given below.  (Siemens Ozoniser)->2                                                     (Siemens Ozoniser)->1 These tin foil are connected  to the induction coil for supply of silent electric discharge. Pure and dry oxygen gas is passed into the apparatus through annular space. The gas is then subjected to the action of silent electric discharge where oxygen gets converted into ozone. The ozonised oxygen then comes out  of the apparatus through the outlet of the Ozoniser. (Siemens Ozoniser)->2

Rutile structure

Rutile structure: The radius radio is in the range 0.73 to 0.41. in rutile (TiO²) each Ti⁴+ ion is octahedrally surrounded by six O²- ions whereas each other O²- ion is surrounded by only three Ti⁴+ ions arranged at the tree corners of a plane triangle. The Co-ordination number of Ti⁴+ and O²+ ions are 6 and 3, respectively. It is not exactly a close packed structure. Ti⁴+ ions in rutile may however, be considered as forming a sufficiently distorted body centred cubic lattice.           Example  compounds  having radius ratio below 0.41 are SiO² and BeF² but these are only a few. The Co-ordination number of Si⁴+ and Be²+ is four and that of O²- is two. However, these are appreciably co-valent.

What are F - Block Elements - F - block elements are consist of Lanthanides and Actinides. In Lanthanides, they are 14 element immediately following Lanthanum (57) from cerium (58) to lutecium (71) . These 14 element are called Lanthanides . These Lanthanides belong to first inner transition series .           In Actinides , these are also 14 elements immediately following Actinium (89) starting from Thorium (90) to lawrencium (103) . The element from Th (90) to Lr (103) are called Actinides . They belong to second inner transition series.
