ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES

The conversion of sound waves into electric currents and the amplification of these currents are two basic electronic techniques required for record players, different electronic techniques.

There are many reasons why it is not possible to transmit radio waves of very low frequencies, but for one things ( но, во-первых ) the transmitting aerial will be impossibly large. It is therefore not possible to broadcast electromagnetic waves of audio frequencies, and for long-distance transmission it is necessary to resort to higher frequencies and therefore shorter wavelengths.

In general, electromagnetic waves are propagated through the Earth’s atmosphere in two ways: travel over the surface of the Earth, and waves, which leave the surface of the Earth.

Long waves are transmitted over ground and therefore lose a good deal of their energy in passing through ground obstacles; they consequently have only a limited range. The shorter waves escape more easily from the surface of the Earth. Very short waves pass through the ionosphere so they can be used for long-distance communication. This is why the range of TV stations is limited.

This problem has been overcome in recent years by the use of communication satellite. If the satellite simply reflects the radiation, it is called a passive satellite, where if it receives the signal and retransmits an amplified signal, it is called an active satellite.

GOLD LIGHTS

We receive natural light from the Sun, whose surface is heated to a temperature of 10, 832 degrees Fahrenheit. But visible light may be radiated by cold as well as by hot bodies.

2. Substances that transform energy into light without becoming heat are called luminofores, and the light they radiate – luminescence. There are many substances in nature that are capable of absorbing invisible ultraviolet rays and turning them into visible light.

There exist two forms of luminofores. In one case the molecules themselves have the ability of transforming absorbed energy into visible light. This group includes certain components of oil and many dyes and chemical compounds. The second group is made up of crystallized substances called phosphors including very small quantities of other substances.

Luminofores are widely used in modern technique, in particular in the production of luminescence lamps – a common feature of our everyday life.

Luminescence is also used in television, a luminous screen being an important part of television picture tubes. Luminofores enable also to discover and observe such radiations as ultra red, ultraviolet, X-ray and alpha that are invisible to the eye as well as fast-moving elementary particles produced by radioactive disintegration or artificial transformation of the atomic nucleus.

COMPUTERS

Computers are well known to represent a completely new branch of science, the first of them having appeared less than 60 years ago. Although still new, these machines are already bringing about a real revolution in science, technology, statistics and automatic control.

The reason for this is the fact that a mathematical formula can be found for almost all scientific and technical problems. They can be solved without a computer but it would require millions of arithmetical operations.

Electronic computer with a high speed can carry out several thousand arithmetical operations in one second. A calculation which would have taken several years of intense human work in the past is now done in a few minutes or hours. A number of various complicated problems have already been solved with the help of computers.

The principle of this wonderful machine lies in counting electric impulses. Numbers are represented as a sequence of such impulses and a radio-technical scheme counts them carrying out addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of all higher mathematical calculations being reduced to these four operations.

Electronic machines work according to a program prepared in advance which determines the sequence of operations. They have a very efficient electronic memory which stores the initial date, the intermediate numbers and final results as well as working commands given to the machine.
