The resisting force R of a supersonic plane depends on its length l, velocity V, air viscosity μ, air density ρ, and bulk modulus of air k. Using Buckingham's π-theorem with repeating variables l, V, and ρ, the relationship can be written as three dimensionless terms:
π1 = R/lVρ, π2 = μ/lV2ρ, π3 = k/lV2ρ. Equating the powers of fundamental dimensions gives the relationship between the resisting force R and the variables it depends on.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

By Dr. Vinod Kumar Kanvaria
2. Topics will cover.
• What is physics?
• History of Physics.
• Branches of Physics.
• Units and Measurement.
• Units conversions
3. What is Physics?
• Physics is the knowledge, observations based on experiments
(Science) and study of properties of matter, energy and their mutual
interactions.
4. Matter and Energy
• Matter is defined as anything that has mass and takes up space (it has
volume). Volume is the amount of space something occupies.
• Energy is the ability to do work, and work is moving something ...
13. Some definitions
• Meteorology: the branch of science concerned with the processes
and phenomena of the atmosphere, especially as a means of
forecasting the weather.
• Tides are the rise and fall of sea levels caused by the combined effects
of the gravitational forces exerted by the Moon and the Sun, and the
rotation of the Earth.
14. Branches of Physics
• Thermodynamics (Heat)
• It is the study of nature of heat, modes of transfer and effects of heat.
• Sound
• It is the study of physical aspects of sound waves, their production, properties, and
applications.
• Light(optic)
• It is the study of physical aspects of light, its properties and use of optical instruments.
• Electricity and Magnetism
• It is the study of the charges at rest and in motion, their effects and their relationship
with magnetism.
• Atomic physics
• It is the study of the structure and properties of atoms.
15. Branches of Physics
• Nuclear physics
• It is the study of properties and behavior of nuclei and the particles.
• Plasma physics
• It is the study of production, properties of the ionic state of matter.
• Geophysics
• It is the study of the internal structure of the earth.
• Modern physics
• It is the branch of physics which deals with the theory of relativity and quantum
mechanics. Max plank and Einstein are considered the father of modern physics.
• Astrophysics
• The branch of physics which deals with the study of universes such as stars,
planets and galaxies, etc
21. Measurements and Units
Supplementary units are the dimensionless units that are used along with the base units to form
derived units in the International system. The class of supplementary contains only two purely
geometrical units, that is the radian and the steradian.
22. Dimension
• Dimension express the physical quantity
• Dimensional formula is an expression which tells the involvement of
the fundamental units in a physical quantity.
• The dimension of a physical quantity is defined as the powers to
which the fundamental quantities are raised in order to represent
that quantity. The seven fundamental quantities are enclosed in
square brackets [ ] to represent its dimensions.
23.
24. Dimension
Dimension of Length is described as [L], the dimension of time is described as [T],
the dimension of mass is described as [M],
the dimension of electric current is described as [A] and dimension of the amount
of quantity can be described as [mol].Adding further dimension of temperature is
[K] and that dimension of luminous intensity is [Cd]
It is mandatory for us to use [ ] in order to write dimension of a physical quantity. In
real life, everything is written in terms of dimensions of mass, length and time.
25. Dimension
• 1. The volume of a solid is given is the product of length, width and its
height. Its dimension is given as:
• Volume = Length × width × Height
• Volume = [L] × [L] × [L] (as length, width and height are lengths)
• Volume = [L]3
• As volume is dependent on length , the powers of time and mass will
be zero while expressing its dimensions i.e. [M]0 and [T]0
• The final dimension of volume will be [M]0[L]3[T]0 = [M0L3T]
• 2. In a similar manner, dimensions of area will be [M]0[L]2[T]0
27. Round off
• If number after decimal point is greater then 5 than value round off by the
next value.
• Example:
• 24.27 round off 24.3
• If number after decimal point is smaller then 5 than the smaller number
will remove without any change.
• Example
• 24.23 round off 24.2
• If number after decimal point is equal to 5 than there are two cases.
1. If number is even than remove the 5 without any change
• Example: 23.45 round off 23.4
2. If number is odd than remove the 5 and round off by next value.
• Example: 23.35 round off 23.4
30. Unit conversion of length
• 1 mile 1.60934 km
• 1 km 1000 m
• 1 m 100 cm
• 1 m 1000 mm
• 1 cm 10 mm
• The basic rule is: If you want to convert a value from larger unit to a
smaller unit then multiply. If you want to convert a value from
smaller unit to larger unit then divide.
31. Example
1. Convert 32 cm into m.
Data
1 m = 100 cm
32/100=0.32 m ans
2. Convert 0.23 m into cm
Data
1 m = 100 cm
0.23 x 100 =23 cm
