Physics and Technologies


Electric Fan


              Its principle is more in Electro-Magnetism that talks between electricity and magnet. There is a solenoid inside on it. The wire inside  was coiled in the cylindrical metal and it forms a magnetic field at the center of it that move the armature which is connected to the blade of the electric fan that make it rotates. The greater the number of coil of wires the faster it rotates. It involved Lenz law that states an induced emf always gives rise to a current whose magnetic field opposes the original change in flux.


Television




           Its principle is more about Optics because of the picture tube inside  that uses light. In a television picture tube, the light is produce by exciting a phosphor and then re-emits it as visible light. A picture is produced by the incoming signal from the antenna that goes to the controls of an electron gun which fires a jet of electrons. The jet of electrons is fired in lines across screen. The more intense the jet of electrons, the brighter the picture.


Flat Iron



          Its more about Thermodynamics where transformation of energy occurs. The electricity is converted to heat energy that makes the iron hot. The transfer of heat to the clothes is called conduction because it  is a mode of transfer of energy within and between bodies of matter.
