Ultrasonic waves and Infrasonic waves CBSE Class 8 Science

What is Infrasonic sound?
Infrasonic sound is defined as a sound with a frequency of less than 20 Hz. The frequency of infrasonic sounds is below the range of human hearing ability.

Infrasonic sound waves can be produced by earthquakes, thunder, and volcanic eruptions, for example. Elephants and whales can detect this sound, even if the human ear is incapable of hearing it. Elephants, whales, rhinos, and pigeons all use infrasound to communicate.

What are Waves of ultrasonic sound?
Ultrasonic sound is defined as sounds with a frequency of more than 20,000 hertz (cycles per second). The frequency of ultrasonic noises is higher beyond the range of human hearing ability to discriminate.

The hearing range of dogs, cats, bats, and mice, for example, extends into the ultrasonic frequency region. They are able to detect wavelengths that humans are unable to detect.

Ultrasound's Applications
  • Ultrasound is also used to monitor a baby's development in the womb at various stages.
  • Ultrasound is used to weld plastic surfaces.
  • Echocardiography is the use of ultrasound to explore the structure and motion of the heart. The information is used to see if the patient's heart has a problem.

Why is Hindi Day celebrated on 14 September?

Why is Hindi Day celebrated on 14 September? After independence, the Government of India set a goal to give an ideal form to the mother tongue of the country and set a target for grammar and orthography using the Devanagari script to bring standardization in writing. Subsequently, on September 14, 1949, the Constituent Assembly decided by a vote that Hindi would be the official language of India. To propagate the importance of this decision and to spread Hindi in every region, India is celebrating Hindi Day every year from 1953 to 14 September, at the request of Rashtrabhasha Prachar Samiti, Wardha. Apart from this, 14 September is also the birthday of Rajendra Singh, who worked tirelessly to make Hindi the official language of India. Hindi Day is observed every year on 14 September to mark the importance of the Hindi language in the country. The Hindi language is one of the oldest languages, which derives most of its academic vocabulary from the Sanskrit language written in the Deva

Magnetic and non-magnetic material Class 6 Science

Magnetic and non-magnetic material  Class 6 Science A magnet is a substance that is drawn to certain magnetic materials like iron, cobalt, and nickel. Magnets have the ability to draw iron to them. Natural magnets are rocks that naturally draw iron. Non-magnetic materials include things like wood, rubber, coins, feathers, leather, etc. that are not drawn to iron. Magnet characteristics It pulls magnetic materials, such as iron. The magnet's two ends are referred to as its poles. The magnet's diametrically opposed poles are drawn together. Heating, hammering, or dropping causes it to lose its characteristics. On the basis of properties types of Magnets Temporary magnets are those magnets that are magnetic for only a little duration. Typically, iron, cobalt, or nickel are used to make them. When they are close to the powerful magnet, they act like a magnet. When they are yanked away from the powerful magnet, they stop being magnetic. Permanent magnets are magnets that have magne
