...FERRODYNAMIC TYPE FREQUENCY METER construction Ferrodynamic type frequency meter consist of a fixed coil which is connected across the supply whose frequency is to be measured. This coil is called magnetising coil. The magnetising coil is mounted on a laminated iron core. The iron core has a cross-section which varies gradually over the length, being maximum near the end where the magnetising coil is mounted and minimum at the other end. A moving coil is pivoted over the iron core. A pointer is attached to the moving coil. The terminals of the moving coil are connected to a suitable capacitor C.There is no provision for the controlling force. WORKING: The operation of the instrument can be understood from the three phasor diagram. The magnetising coil carries a current I and this current produces a flux Φ. If we neglect the resistance of the coil and the iron losses in the core, flux Φ is in phase with current I. Flux Φ, being alternating in nature, induces an emf E in the moving coil. This emf lags behind the flux by 90°. The emf induced circulates a current Im in the moving coil. The phase of this current Im depends upon the inductance L of the moving coil and the capacitance C. In fig. (a), the circuit of the moving coil is assumed to be inductive and therefore current Im lags behind the emf E by an angle α. The torque acting on the moving coil is thus: Td α Im cos(90°+α) In fig (b), the moving coil circuit is...

...You are Ravi in Games at Twilight. You have just come out of the shed after hiding for hours and no one has noticed that you have been gone. Write your thoughts. “Where is everybody? Did I win the game?” I thought to myself. I had been hiding in this dark shed for hours but no one found me. I heard Raghu shouting, “I heard you! I’m coming! Got you.” Raghu found the others long before, and I thought I was the winner of this game, but no one remembered me. It is so dark in here, insects crawling all over me, I dare not to move, afraid Raghu will find me, but he never came, no one did. At first I was glad that he did not find me, meaning I won the game. I want to be respected by them and no longer a nobody. When I hid at the shed, it is such a dark and depressing place. I really want to win; I want to be acknowledged by them. But it feels like there was a gap separating me with my siblings, one that would hardly be separated. When I tell them that I won the game, they did not remember me, it took them a minute to grasp what I am saying and even who was I. They say I was a fool of myself as though I did not have feelings and was a laughingstock. It felt like my heart was ripped apart. Sometimes I felt like I was a toy, when it’s still new and they like it, they play with it. But when time goes by, they get tired of it; they just throw it away like a piece of unwanted paper. I want to defeat Raghu – that hirsute, hoarse-voiced football champion and to be a winner in a circle...

...I chose to discuss the three songs, “Bhimpalasi,” by Ravi Shankar, “Magonde,” the traditional music of Zimbabwe, and “Aililiu na Gamhna,” by Solas. Each of these songs differ greatly from one another and I found them interesting to listen to. Compared to “Western” music, I found these songs to be very different in terms of how they sounded to me. Although some may not find much difference, I perceived them to have little similarities. However, I did find a relation of the “Western” genres and the genres from other parts of the world. I noticed how different each of them sounded; yet they all convey a similar quality of uniqueness to where they originate. I feel like all of them represented their given cultures and that they all had meaning behind them. The song, “Bhimpalasi” was very similar to Ravi Shankar’s other excerpt we listened to called, “Raga Anandi Kalyan.” This song heavily portrayed the Middle Eastern part of the world. It contains solely instruments that are plucked, which makes it lack harmony, whereas “Western” music is often full of harmony. Western music also utilizes scales in a more common way to our ears, and this music uses scales in more of a melodic shape. “Magonde” is a traditional African song. This song is very full of rhythm, which is often appreciated by Africans who are more used to this type of music, versus Americans who may think it all just sounds the same. This particular song contained the traditional African drums, along with singing and...

...and notation has been quite unique unlike the Western music. Ravi Shankar is among Indian musicians who have revolutionalized the classical Indian music and has won three Grammy Wards. Although Shankar interacted with other artists from other cultures, his music reflects on the Indian musical traditions. The classical Indian music is reputed style of music which even today espouses the aesthetics of the ancient times despite having had influence from other genres of music (Massey & Massey, 1996). The classical music of India is categorized into two; the Hindustani music which is from Northern Indian region and Carnatic music from Southern India. Massey and Massey (1996) argue that a common similarity of the two genres is that they employ one raga per song and the music has heavy improvisation element. Raga is what may be compared to mode or scale in Western music. The difference is evident because Hindustani music has the heavy influence of Persian music as opposed to Carnatic music and vocalist element is emphasized in Carnatic music than in Hindustani music. The Indian music is characteristic of tala which is considered as rhythmic pattern enhanced by drums called the tabla and the accompaniment the stringed instrument, the Sitar, which has been compared with the Western harpsichord. The Indian classical music is also classified as secular music to praise people and the sacred music for worship of the deities. Ravi Shankar has become renowned for his prowess and mastery in...

...Monophonic Chordal Style For my western culture I chose Medieval and my non-western culture was Indian classical music. The two cultures may be different but they have some similarities. One musical like between the two cultures would be monophonic. In both cultures, the songs are played without harmony. The notes may be played at different times of the octave of the note may be different. For instance, when women and men are singing together they sing the same note but they are in different octaves. To show the musical link between the two cultures I will use these two songs; Cantiga 166 (western) and Ravi Shankar- Tarana (Indian classical). In Indian classical culture the music is based around a single melody line called ragas which makes it monophonic. The song I chose to represent Indian classical is Tarana. Tarana is made by Ravi Shankar who plays Carnatic music which is one of two main sub-genres of Indian classical music. The song Tarana is a duet between a man and a woman. The song starts out with an instrument solo but as the solo progresses the music becomes monophonic. Then the singers join with their monophonic style singing which lasts throughout the song. There are also points in the song where the singers and the instruments interact in a monophonic battle. In the medieval culture music was very scared and secular but also monophonic. The song I chose was Cantiga 166. This song is singed in both the duplication of the octave and the note is sung in unison...

...Indian classical music and jazz. Though these two styles of music seem completely dissimilar, they share many of the same influence and roots. Indian classical music dates back to thousands of years ago, where it was first played in the King’s court. It is now played in large concert halls all over the world. Jazz has its roots in the black churches of New Orleans in the beginning of the 20th century. It is now played in large concert halls around the world as well. When examined closely, it is astoning to see how many similarities these two styles of music have. It is safe to say that Indian classical music has had a strong influence on jazz. Both styles of music rely heavily on human expression, paths for spiritual advancement, and improvisation. Indian music’s influence on jazz can date back to the early 1960s. With the modifications of the United States Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, a new flood of Southeast Asian immigrants entered the country. Coincidentally, the 1960s was a decade of political turmoil with the free jazz and civil rights movement. This was a major factor in the influence of carnatic music on jazz. Many of the improvisation techniques jazz musicians use today came from the roots of Carnatic music. To understand how Indian Classical music influenced jazz, one needs to understand the varying styles of classical music. There are two styles of classical music--Hindustani and Carnatic. Hindustani music is played primarily in North...

...WORLD MUSIC CHAPTER 5 1. Why does the Indian classical tradition dominate the musical image of South Asia in the west? The classical music of India has gained most of the attention of outsiders probably due to the colonization era that has brought Indo-European invaders (Aryan Civilization) into their territory between 2000 and 1500 BCE due to the presence of rich resources. However, Indian music, unlike the communal music of Africa and Southeast Asia, is individual and often virtuosic and can be both vocal and instrumental. The Hindustani one (North) is more appealing to the Western society as it is more instrumental based, whereas the Carnatic (south) one is more vocally oriented. Another factor that attracts the Western attention to Indian Classical Music is the presence of virtuosic improvisation. 2. Discuss the following terms important to a Hindustani classical musical performance Raga, Alap, Gat, Tala, Rasa? Raga: long Hindustani instrumental improvisations. Several things stand out to the first-time listeners: twangy buzz of introductory instruments, constant ornamentation and pitch bending of main melodic part, and tension changes. The word raga (color, atmosphere) denotes a comprehensive system for the simultaneous composition and performance struggle. Alap: the opening section of a raga performance in which the performer “explores” the raga. It can last for a mere minute or so or even be extended for an hour or more. Gat: the skeletal melody used as a...

Drafted by Justice Santosh Hegde (former Supreme Court Judge and former Lokayukta of Karnataka), Prashant Bhushan (Supreme Court Lawyer) and Arvind Kejriwal (RTI activist), the draft Bill envisages a system where a corrupt person found guilty would go to jail within two years of the complaint being made and his ill-gotten wealth being confiscated. It also seeks power to the Jan Lokpal to prosecute politicians and bureaucrats without government permission. Retired IPS officer Kiran Bedi and other known people like Swami Agnivesh, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Anna Hazare and Mallika Sarabhai are also part of the movement, called India Against Corruption. Its website describes the movement as "an expression of collective anger of people of India against corruption. We have all come together to force/request/persuade/pressurize the Government to enact the Jan Lokpal Bill. We feel that if this Bill were enacted it would create an effective deterrence against corruption." Anna Hazare, anti-corruption crusader, went on a fast-unto-death in April, demanding that this Bill, drafted by the civil society, be adopted.

As soon as that stupid beanstalk grows, I have to climb it all the way to a shooting range in the sky. Once I’m there I get to be target practice for a Polynesian giant and his Megalodon sized rifle. Hurray!” “So yeah, dropping the sarcasm and the cliche fairy tale, it is pretty easy to guess from my description above that I’m facing Vin Wesley this week. There is no shying away from the fact that is going to be a tough match for me. Vin is a big guy. In the past I have not faired so well against big guys. See my fights against Damion Darkside and Lord Raab as proof. Vin’s size is not what makes him dangerous though. He’s a very cerebral fighter that can easily calculate the exact amount of force he intends to use. A behemoth with brains. Fuck. Me.” “There is no beating around the bush when it comes to the only way I stand a realistic chance of beating Vin. I have to hit him so hard that his ancestors feel it all the way back in their war canoes. The only way I can do that is to get angry and luckily Vin’s actions against me in the past have given me sufficient fuel for the proverbial fire.” “You’ve recently become a champion Vin, congrats there is no better feeling than winning yourself a shiny prize made of leather and gold. There is no better feeling than getting to celebrate that achievement. Or so I’ve heard...
