Force and laws of motion
Forces can cause motion in objects. There are two types of forces - balanced and unbalanced. Balanced forces do not cause motion in stationary objects or a change in motion in moving objects, while unbalanced forces can cause or change motion. Newton's Three Laws of Motion describe the relationship between forces and motion. The first law states that objects at rest stay at rest and moving objects stay in motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force. The second law states that acceleration is produced when an unbalanced force acts on an object and is directly proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass. The third law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Cloud computing
Cloud computing is a type of computing that relies on sharing computing resources over the internet rather than local devices, allowing users to access services and data from anywhere. It provides advantages like lower costs, improved performance, unlimited storage, and universal access to documents, though requires a constant internet connection and may be slower for large data transfers. Popular cloud computing services are offered by companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Oracle, and Google.

Space ,science in india
Indian astronomy has a long tradition dating back to at least the 1st millennium BCE. Several early Indian astronomers like Aryabhata, Brahmagupta, and Bhaskara studied and made advances in astronomy. They proposed ideas like the earth's rotation and the moon being illuminated by the sun. Their works influenced later Islamic astronomy. Today, India has a vibrant space science program involving astronomy, astrophysics, planetary science, and more. India has launched satellites, astronomical observatories, and space missions like Chandrayaan-1 and ASTROSAT. The Indian Space Research Organization is responsible for Indian space initiatives.
Aryabhatta
Aryabhata was a famous Indian mathematician and astronomer from the classical age of Indian mathematics and astronomy. He was born in 476 CE in Kusumapura, modern Patna, and was the head of an institution there. His major works were the Aryabhatiya, a compendium of mathematics and astronomy, and the Arya-siddhanta. In the Aryabhatiya, he accurately calculated pi and introduced concepts like trigonometry and algebra. He also correctly proposed that the Earth rotates daily and revolves around the Sun annually. Aryabhata made significant contributions to mathematics, including introducing the place-value system, approximating pi,
