NASA Confirms Earth Will Experience 15 Days Of Darkness In Nov, 2015 ?

-
Now, according to a website, the US space agency NASA has confirmed that the Earth will experience 15 days of total darkness in November this year.
On 14 July 2015, the web site Newswatch33, a fake news site, published an article titled “NASA confirms Earth will experience 15 days of complete darkness in November 2015.”
It is said that the event, according to NASA, hasn’t occured in over 1 million years.
Astronomers from NASA have indicated that the world will remain in complete darkness starting on Sunday, November 15, 2015 at 3 a.m. and will end on Monday, November 30, 2015 at 4:15 p.m.
According to officials, the event, known as “November Black Out”, will be caused by another astronomical event between Venus and Jupiter. The whole phenomenon has been explained in a highly scientific way.
The article also stated that Charles Bolden, who was appointed to head of NASA by President Obama, issued a 1000 page document explaining the event to the White House.
While Charles Bolden is a real NASA official, the website, Newswatch33, is not a legitimate news outlet.
Newswatch33 has hoaxed social media users a number of times, such as a girl was electrocuted by her iPhone’s earbuds, Jay Z and Beyonce has purchased all rights of Confederate Flag and that the federal government had impregnated inexpensive cigars with listening devices.

Meaning of 1.2L, 1.4L, 1.6L,engine in a car?

-

In a car, which has a multi(4/6/8) cylinder engine, the above nomenclature viz. 1.6L,1.4L, etc. refers to the combined volume capacity of all the cylinders( expressed in cubic centimeters, 1L=1000 cc).  Here volume capacity refers to the swept volume or displacement volume or breathing capacity of the cylinder. It is basically the volume of air that can be sucked insde the cylinder as the stroke moves from TDC to BDC. Swept Volume,  V= pi/4*d^2*L*K   , where                                            d- Bore, L-Stroke,  K-no. of cylinders. This is the common terminology used to specify the engine size. A 1.2L engine means a 1.2 litre engine, which is equal to 1200cc (cc = cubic capacity).  Hope that explains it! Pros/Cons: Usually, higher swept volume means higher power and subsequently higher fuel consumption. This is because Power, P= Mean Cyl.Pressure*Stroke*Pisto n area*No. of power strokes*No. of cylinders.  So, Power generated is a directly proportional to the cyl

Difference between a muffler and a catalytic converter

-

A muffler makes the  car  quiet, the cat makes the exhaust clean. Cars built after 1974 originally had both, but it's legal to run with no muffler as long as the car isn't too loud. The cat is required, you can't pass emissions without one. Some people will remove the cat, if they live in a county without  emissions testing , but that is illegal. If you have a car with no  catalytic converter , and the muffler goes bad, sure you could put a cat on instead. They're more expensive, and louder, but that would get you legal. Actually, the cat is supposed to be mounted closer to the engine, where there is more exhaust heat to burn off exhaust crud. I suppose if you wanted to, you could run two catalytic converters. That would greatly restrict your exhaust and cut down on horsepower, probably reduce fuel economy as well. Probably wouldn't help emissions, either. hey are two totally different things,each with it's own  seperate purpose. You could put 2 co

Nitrox suspension - Gas charged suspensions

The advantages of using a Nitrox suspension - Gas charged suspensions. The rear shock absorbers on current Bajaj Pulsar series bikes are also popularly known as NITROX shock absorbers . These types of shock absorbers are actually called as ‘Gas Filled Shock Absorbers’. The visual differentiation between a conventional shock absorber and a gas filled shock absorber is a small canister (box) which is attached on one side of it. This canister holds a small amount of Nitrogen gas in it. Hence these hydraulic shock absorbers or dampers are called as gas filled shock absorbers. So what is the reason to use a gas filled hydraulic dampers instead of using a conventional one? we'll find out the answer here. The 'Royal Enfield - Bullet Electra' was the first bike in India to have this feature. The Pulsar 150/180 UG II (2’nd upgrade) then became the second model (and the first in the 150 cc and above category) to make this feature available on Indian bikes. A
