How Hyperloop Works?Faster than Aeroplane


The Fastest mode of transportation that we currently have  is an Aeroplane which travels at speeds 1000 km/h which is great but not all people can travel through an aeroplane.But what if I say you could travel even faster than an aeroplane at much lower cost.This is made possible thanks to a concept called as Hyperloop.So let's see what is this concept all about and how we will be able to achieve speeds faster than an Aeroplane.

 What is the concept of Hyperloop?
Hyperloop is basically a open source project that was first introduced by Elon Musk in 2012.So the basic idea is that we will have  large tubes built on pillars throughout the route of the Hyperloop.

 Through these tubes many pods will travel between the route.All the pods will run on clean energy.The Speeds that we will be able to get is around 1200 km/h which is more than an aeroplane

 How does Hyperloop work?
So basically the pods will run on clean energy.So  the concept is that we will use Electric Linear motors.In  normal motors as we have the two basic components the stator and the rotar.So here in Hyperloop the stationary part or the stator of the induction motor is a electromagnet which will be laid as in the forms of tracks.While the rotor will be a part of the pods that will travel through the tube.So as soon as the motor is set into motion we are good to go.But as we need to get greater speeds what we need to do is constantly keep removing the air from the tubes with the help of pumps so as there is no opposing force.The tubes won't be complete vacuum but there would we some air with low pressure.Now as the pod moves forward it will compress the air in the front and at some point it's speed will decrease.So for this purpose we have a dedicated compressor which will remove the air through the fins of the pods.The pods will levitate in the air because of the phenomenon of magnetic levitation
By ensuring that we get least resistance we will be able to  achieve greater speeds.It is like going many thousand feets above the sky where we have least resistance.In such a way we will be able to achieve speeds greater than an aeroplane.

What are proposed routes?
There are many proposed routes and many different companies working on this project.Among These one prominent route is Mumbai To Pune Where we will be able to cover this Distance with the help of Virgin Hyperloop in 25 min.

What are the Real Life Concerns?
Effect of Speed
The kind of effect that these high speeds will have on our body is still unknown.

 Earthquake
If we have a sudden Earthquake even a small impact at those great speeds will prove to be fatal.

 Emergency Braking
Till date we have not been able to develop a system that could help is in stopping these high speeds pods in emergency immediately .

151 MP Camera :-Dope Tech Explained

A 151 MP Camera is something that we could  not imagine a few years ago.But this is made possible thanks to the company"PhaseOne".The PhaseOne XF IQ4 captures ridiculous amounts of deatail. So let's have a look at this Dope Tech. Phase One Camera Specifications Many of the medium frame cameras that try to capture photos above 100 mp use the technique of capturing multiple shots to up the megapixel game rather actually increasing the size of the sensor.PhaseOne however has turned up the camera sensor megapixel game with a staggering 151mp camera sensor that is backside illuminated The camera muster an ISO 50 to 25,600 sensitivity despite the extreme resolution, and you can use both timelapse and bracketing tools independently of the main camera body. The IQ4 also scratches the itch for pro photographers with XQD and SD card slots as well as tethering through Ethernet, USB-C or wireless. If it sounds ridiculously expensive... well, it is. The regula...

Thunderbolt 3 Explained

  The ports on the side of your laptop are important. They decide what you can do on your device and how quickly you can do it. When Apple introduced the first version of the new style MacBook Pro, Apple ditched every single port on its old machines and replaced it with just Thunderbolt 3.Many PCs have now followed suit into the world of Thunderbolt - although it's still relatively few that have gone the whole hog and dumped all other ports the same way that Apple has on the Pro and MacBook Air. So in this article let's understand what's Thunderbolt 3? What is Thunderbolt 3? Thunderbolt 3 is the latest version of Thunderbolt, and it uses the same design as the familiar USB-C connector. This connector is used for simplicity Intel introduced the Thunderbolt platform in 2011 at a time when USB 3.0 was all the rage and could transfer data at speeds up to 5Gbps. Thunderbolt was capable of twice that, plus it could transfer multiple types of data, not just serial data to storage ...

QR Codes Explained

We use QR codes daily for different things like making payments, storing your travel information, visiting websites, connecting to Wi-Fi networks. These barcodes can be captured using smartphones. So in this article let's understand what is a QR code and how do they work. What is QR Code? Qr codes were first developed by a subsidiary of Toyota 'Denso Wave' to quickly track vehicles and parts through the company's automotive manufacturing process.QR code stands for Quick Response Code. Although Denso Wave still holds patents over the technology, QR codes are free for anyone to use without a license fee as long as the intellectual property is being used within the defined ISO/JIS standards.QR codes are machine-readable labels — computers can understand them much more easily than they can understand the text. In 2016 for instance, Snapchat and iMessage introduced support for QR codes as a method of adding new friends, WhatsApp uses QR codes as a quick way to access the de...
