such as sodium vapour lamp‚ mercury vapour lamp‚ neon gas lamp. 2) Those which use the phenomenon of fluorescence and are known as fluorescent lamps. In these lamps‚ the discharge through the vapour produces ultraviolet waves which cause fluorescence in certain materials called the phosphorus. The inside of lamp is coated with phosphor which absorbs invisible ultra-violet rays and radiates visible rays. Example: Fluorescent mercury-vapour lamp. High pressure mercury vapour lamp:

Attached to the arm cuff is a rubber bulb and a column of mercury. Once the nurse gathers this equipment‚ she/he will then need to find and identify their patient. The nurse will then put the arm cuff on the patient‚ but not too tightly. The arm cuff can go on either arm as long as it is above the elbow and on bare

mixture of mercury with at least one other metal. The amalgam filling has been used for restorative method for many years due to its low cost‚ durability‚ ease of application‚ strength and bacteriostatic effects. The environmental concerns are regarding mercury emissions during preparation and from waste amalgam upon cremation of deceased individuals. Amalgam filling: Dental Amalgam is the most commonly used restorative material used for dental fillings. This contains a mixture of mercury with at

weight greater in air than in the liquid. Therefore‚ it is easier to lift a body in a liquid than in the air. ii. Steel balls sink in water but don’t sink in mercury. Why? ~ The density of the water is less than that of mercury. Also‚ the density of the steel is greater than that of water but less than that of mercury. Hence‚ mercury provides greater upthrust than water does resulting the floatation of the steel in it. iii. A body floats in a liquid contained in a beaker. The whole system

more than a century. In fact‚ the first written record of amalgam being used in dental applications is 1528 .Yet‚ it is still a very commonly used material today. Amalgam was first made by melting down Spanish or Mexican coins and mixing them with mercury . When it cooled and settled into the cavity‚ it actually turned black. Bell then evolved this rudimentary procedure into a more controlled alloy in 1819. The substance created a massive wealth for the dental surgeons who promoted its use. However

RELAY A relay is an electrically operated switch. Many relays use an electromagnet to operate a switching mechanism mechanically‚ but other operating principles are also used. Relays are used where it is necessary to control a circuit by a low-power signal (with complete electrical isolation between control and controlled circuits)‚ or where several circuits must be controlled by one signal. The first relays were used in long distance telegraph circuits‚ repeating the signal coming in from one circuit
