The Stars

Stars are formed from giant cloud of dust and gas. Due to gravity the cloud collapses in a rotating disc. As the disc rotates more and more gases are pulled towards the centre and thus creating a hot and dense centre called protostar. If enough mass collapses into protostar a bipolar flow occurs. Two massive gas jets erupts from protostar and blasting away remaining gas and dust from its surface. At this point the young star stabilizes. The energy in the Star is created through a process called Nuclear fusion.
The Star will die once it runs out of gases to burn. The star will first expand into a red super giant. The core contracts and outer layer expands. Then comes the stage called Supernova. The core collapses in an instant. The repulsive electrical forces overcomes the gravitational force, causing a massive, short lived explosion blowing away the star's outer layer. After super nova the star may turn into either a black hole or a neutron star. After Supernova the mass of the core becomes 3 to 4 times that of the Sun. The core collapses due to gravitation forming a Black hole. The gravitational force in a black hole is so strong that even light cannot escape from it. Neutron star is the ultra dense core of a star after super nova. It  is formed when the star is not so massive to form a black hole. 
A pulsar is a rotating Neutron Star radiating electromagnetic radiations at a rate of upto 1000 pulses per second.

Tribes in India(Tricks to remember Tribes in India)

1. Andhra Pradesh: Andh, Sadhu Andh, Bhagata, Bhil, Chenchus, Gadabas, Gond, Goundu, Jatapus, Kammara, Kattunayakan, Kolawar, Kolam, Konda, Manna Dhora, Pradhan, Rona, Savaras, Dabba Yerukula, Nakkala, Dhulia, Thoti, Sugalis.  Trick to remember: Andhere Pradesh mein ek Nayak ki jaroorat hai.

Badle mein Sadhu ne Jackie Chen ko ek Kalam  (Kolam) gift ki aur  Mann(Manna Dhora) mein dhanyawad dia aur GOD(Gond, Goundu) ki blessing di.

Latitudes and Longitudes

Latitudes and Longitudes are used for specifying location of a point on Earth's surface. Latitudes are measured in respect of Equator. Equator itself is a latitude and is largest of all latitudes.  The length of latitudes keeps decreasing as we move from equator to poles. It ranges from 0 degrees to 90 degrees (North and South). The latitude of any point on earth's surface can be known by measuring the angle b/w the line joining that point with Center of earth and the Equatorial Plane. Longitudes are measured in terms of Prime Meridian. Prime meridian is a longitude which passes through Greenwich, England and is assigned with 0 degree. Other Longitudes are measured with respect to it in East or West direction. It ranges from 0 degrees to 180 degrees (East or west). The longitude of a point on earth's surface can be known by measuring the angular distance b/w the longitude containing the point and the Prime Meridian. All longitudes are of equal lengths.

Harappan Civilization

It was also known as Indus Valley Civilization (IVC). Harappan Civilization was of Indigenous origin which had gradually evolved. Initial communities of Mehrgarh etc. moved to fertile lands of Indus Valley. Surplus agriculture produce helped in development of other secondary activities. Gradually the population concentrated in the area leading to formation of Cities. Chalcolithic age helped in urbanization. Geographical extent of Harappan or IVC was as follows: In North- Manda in Jammu and Kashmir. In South- Diamabad in Maharashtra. In East- Alamgirpur in Uttar Pradesh. In West- Sutkagendor in Pakistan. Features of Harappan Civilization: 1. It was Indegenous. 2. It was urban and had urban institutions like citadel. 3. People were literate. Script was found however in could not deciphered yet. 4. It was an evolved society because means of entertainment like toys, chess, etc. found. 5. It was a multiclass society. There were artisans, merchants, traders, craftsmen etc. 6.
