GROUP

By

The concept of a binary operation on a nonempty set has already been explained in the previous. One may recall that abinary operation on a nonempty set A is just a function *:A x A → A so, for each (a, b) in A x A, * associates an element *(a, b) of A. We shall denote *(a, b) by a * b. If A is a nonempty set with a binary operation *, then A is said to be closed under *.

DEFINAITIONS AND EXAMPLES

A pair (G, *), where G is a nonempty set and * is a binary operation on G, is called a groupif the following conditions called axioms of a group, are satisfied in G:

(1) The binary operation * is associative. That is,

(a * b) * c = a *(b*c) for all a, b, c, are belong to G

(2) There is an element e in G such that

a*e = e*a = a for all a belong to G

e is called the identity element of G.

(3) For each a belong to G, there is an a.


Note:Use of word the before identity element and inverse of an element is to signify their uniqueness.

THERMAL PROPERTIES

By
THERMAL PROPERTIES OF METER  The crocus flower is a natural thermometer. It opens when the temperature is precisely 23 degree centigrade and closes when the temperature drops. Liquid in Glass Thermometer Construction: A liquid in glass thermometer has a bulb whit a log capillary tube of uniform and fine bore. PRINCIPLE      Liquid in glass thermometer is made on he principle of expansion of heating.       A suitable liquid is filed in the bulb. When  we touch the bulb with a hot body, the liquid in it expands and rises in the tube. the glass stem of a thermometer is thick and acts as a cylindrical lens. This makes it easy to see the liquid lever in the glass tube. THE MERCURY IN GLASS THERMOMETERS\ Mercury freezes at -39 degree centigrade and boils at 357 degree centigrade. Mercury has all the thermometer properties. So mercury is one of the most suitable thermometer materials. Murcury in glass thermometer are widely used in laboratories, clinic and house to measure tempertatures in th

TIME SERIES ANALYSIS

By
Introduction                 A time series consists of numerical data collected observed or recorded at more or less regular intervals of time each hour, day, month, quarter or year, More specifically, it is any set of data in which observation are arranged in a chronological order, Examples of time series are the hourly temperature recorded at a locality for a period of year, the weekly prices of wheat in Lahore, the monthly consumption of electricity in a certain town, the monthly total of passengers carried by rial,the quarterly sales of a certain fertilizer, the annual rainfall at Karachi for a number of year, the enrollment of students in a college or university over a number of year and so forth.               The analysis of a time series is a process by which a set of observation in a time series in analyses.Time series analysis is rather a difficult topic but we shall limit our discussion to the basics of time series analysis          The observation in a time series, d

HEAT AND THERMODYNAMICS

By
U                        HEAT AND THERMODYNAMICS        Thermodynamics deals with various phenomena of energy and related properties of matter, especially the transformation of heat into other forms of energy. An example of such transformation is the process converting heat into mechanical work. Thermodynamics thus plays central role in technology, since almost all the raw energy available for our use is liberated in the form of heat. in this topic we shall their significance and applications.               KINETIC THEORY OF GASES       The behavior of gases is well accounted for by the kinetic theory based on microscopic approach. Evidence in favor of the theory is exhibited in diffusion of gases and Brownian motion of smoke particles etc.      The following postulates help to formulate a mathematical model of gases.      A finite volume of gas consists of very large number of molecules.      The size of the molecules is much smaller then the separation between molecules.
