Generation of computers


A computer is an electrical device that facilitates a variety of tasks for us. It is a multitasking powerhouse that produces precise outcomes.

Computers from the first generation used machine language. The simplest programming language for computers to use is called machine language. Large vacuum tubes in the first-generation computers increased their size and cost.

Transistors took the place of vacuum tubes in the second generation of computers. Although Bell Labs invented the transistor in 1947, it wasn't until the late 1950s that they were widely deployed.

As a result of the transistor's superior performance over the vacuum tube, computers in the second generation are now smaller, faster, cheaper, more energy-efficient, and more dependable.

The third generation of computers was made possible by advancements in integrated circuit technology. Computers can now operate more quickly and effectively because to the downsizing of transistors and their placement on silicon chips, also referred to as semiconductors.



Keyboards and monitors connected to an operating system that allowed the device to run various programmes while being managed by centralised software were used to initiate user interaction. Of course, punch cards and printouts were replaced by keyboards and monitors.

The fourth generation of computers was launched with the integration of thousands of integrated circuits onto a single silicon chip. In the palm of one's hand, what once filled a whole room, was now confined. The central processing unit, memory, and input/output controllers were all merged onto a single chip for the Intel 4004 microprocessor, which was unveiled in 1971..

Although the fifth generation of computers is still being developed, some functions, like speech recognition, are now in use. Parallel processing and superconductors are enabling the development of artificial intelligence.

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...
