When the plane flies horizontally at a steady speed, *lift* (up) from the wings exactly balances the plane's *weight* (down) and the *thrust* (forward), exactly balances the *drag* (rearward). However, during takeoff, or when the plane is attempting to climb in the sky (as shown here), the thrust from the engines pushing the plane forward exceeds the drag (air resistance) pulling it back. This creates a lift force, greater than the plane's weight, which powers the plane higher into the sky.  A plane's engines are designed to move it forward at high speed. That makes air flow rapidly over the wings, which throw the air down toward the ground, generating an upward force called lift that overcomes the plane's weight and holds it in the sky. For a plane or bird to fly, its wings must produce enough lift to equal its weight. Most wings used in flight are a special shape – called aerofoils (or airfoils). This shape is needed to help generate lift. ======================= 💁🏻‍♂‍ *GK TODAY*  =======================  German physicist *Wilhelm Röntgen* accidentally discovered X-rays, while studying the effects of passing an electrical current through gases at low pressure xxxxx Mawsynram is a village in the East Khasi Hills district of Meghalaya state in northeastern India, 65 kilometres from Shillong.

Our forgetfulness is generally attributed to neurochemical conditions in the brain that occur during REM sleep, a phase of sleep characterized by rapid eye movements and dreaming. But that may not be the whole story. Perhaps the most compelling explanation is the absence of the hormone norepinephrine in the cerebral cortex, a brain region that plays a key role in memory, thought, language and consciousness Although most dreams vanish, certain ones tend to remain. These dreams were so beautiful or bizarre, they captured our attention and increased activity in our dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). Thus, the more impressive your dream or thought, the more likely you are to remember it. *LEARN Sanskrit*🙏🏻 =======================  अस्य रुचिं पश्यतु । = Taste this, please. ======================  🤔 *HOW IT WORKS* ⁉ ======================= *HOW ELECTRIC BATTERY STORES ENERGY.*  A battery is a device that stores chemical energy and converts it to electrical energy. The chemical reactions in a battery involve the flow of electrons from one material (electrode) to another, through an external circuit. The flow of electrons provides an electric current that can be used to do work. To balance the flow of electrons, charged ions also flow through an electrolyte solution that is in contact with both electrodes. Different electrodes and electrolytes produce different chemical reactions that affect how the battery works, how much energy it can store and its voltage.  ======================= 💁🏻‍♂‍ *GK TODAY*  ======================= Smt.
