Why Worm gears are not reversible

Worm gears are used in speed reducer this drive has a worm(driving Shaft) and a worm wheel (driven wheel)

The speed reduction ratio is about 300:3 rpm

Why it is not reversible:

Worm gear has more contact area than any other gears so it has more friction so it has been used as self locking mechanism.

Due to this more friction worm gears are not reversible.

Interstellar Movie Mann's planet Frozen clouds explained

In the movie when the crew descend to Mann's planet the ranger scrap the edge of an ice clouds. These clouds are largely frozen "Dry ice"(solid form of carbon-di-oxide) the reason why Mann's planet is too cold is, it orbiting the gargantua(black hole) at an over elongated path, the planet swings close(inward journey) around the gargantua and flies out to a large distance(outward journey) and come close around and flies out again, In the movie when the crew desecend to land Endurance is at extreme end of the orbit (outward journey) and after docking scene endurance comes closer to the gargantua; it shows that the Mann's planet mostly away from the accretion disk of gargantua; oribtary of Mann's planet around gargantua Mann's planet is cold and ...

Which one win the race- solid and hollow cylinder

Which one win the race- solid and hollow cylinder Consider two cylinders of different metals, different diameters, and different in mass now take example One is a copper metal and another one is aluminium Now Consider copper as mass M1 and aluminium as M2 and and also consider that mass of the copper is greater than the mass of the aluminium And here diameters also varies now place them on a sliding plane and remove the barrier both cylinders will Start rolling in a pure rolling manner now which one wins the race You might think the copper with heavier mass wins the race but actually not, neither one wins both will reach the point at same time now again repeat the task with material of different diameter and length The results is neither one wins the race Finally take an one hollow material and another one solid material now did the same race here the result change hollow one lose the g...

What happen when we charge our Mobile phone over night

What happen when we charge our Mobile phone over night what happen When we charge our phone over night before that we move to the charger working, when the mobile phone is connected the A.C current of 240V step down to about 5V and later it converts into D.C current by rectifier and filtered and connect to the charging port Intially the phone get completed charged and the automatic turn off system cut-off the charging but after few minutes Mobile charge drain from 100% to 99% but it is still connected so the circuit will again closed and get charge the mobile phone to 100% and it will loop It may affect your phone charger and battery
