Airless moon gets rusted near poles chandrayan-1 mission shows

 


We all know that moon has no atmosphere but at near the pole hematite (Iron oxide-Rust) is found by chandrayan-1 2008 mission by ISRO (INDIAN SPACE RESEARCH ORGANISATION) Shows the data


The blue colour show ice presents at the poles the red orange colour show that is hematite.

Hematite 

Hematite is a oxides of iron generally rust. Rust is formed only when iron is reacted to oxygen and presence of moisture in air or water which leads to corrode


How hematite formed in Airless moon

Scientist believe that reason for rust  is First Hydrogen ion in form of plasma from sun's solar wind act as a reducer in moons surface but when moon orbiting earth at point it crosses earth magnetotail in earth magnetism there may be possible for oxygen may expell from the atmosphere may have chance to react with moon surface it mostly oocur when earth and moon is completely face each other where earth blocks all the solar wind to moon at the time oxidation may happen

Another reason  dust particles from space may have the chance for causing rusting with help of water present in poles

But scientists have researching how hematite ( iron oxide ) found at back side of the moon where it never faces earth,

Why Auto-rickshaw tyres are tilted

Why Auto-rickshaw tyres are tilted  Many times we saw auto tyres are tilted slightly about 1-3° vertical it is called Camber  Camber is are three types 1.Positive Camber  2. Negative Camber 3.Neutral Camber When the auto-rickshaw is unloaded the tyres will look tilted when it is fully  loaded with passengers the tyre inclination will become straight. It also help to withstand heavy load during traction and avoid tyre wearing during running Negative Camber are used in off-road vehicle like tractor

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...
