The Recurring Dream

A story from England

The plot is set in England. The main character is Kimberly Clark. She is a young and pretty women who lives in London and works in a large company. She is font of dancing and making friends.

Kim has a problem, however, she sees a mysterious dream about an unfamiliar person and place every night. The dream is really discomforting for her.

In her dream, Kim stands on a country road. She goes along a lane with a white fence and a hedge on each side. At the end of the lane on the top of a little hill, she sees a small white cottage with green shutters. She enters the house and in one of the rooms, she sees and old man with white hair and beard sleeping in bed. When Kim approaches his bed, the old man wakes up. Before she tries to talk to him, she wakes up and finds herself in the bed.

Kim shares her problem with her roommate Janet. In order to unchain from the dream, one day Kim and Janet plan to set out to Janet's parent's farm in the country for a few days. While they are driving along the countryside road, Kim sees the same house of her dream. She finds everything similar to her dream except a FOR SALE signboard. Fearfully, she knocks at the door and the same man of her dream opens it. In the conversation, Kim is informed that the house is haunted by a ghost most nights. When Kim inquires about the ghost, the old man says "Its you".

SUPERNATURAL EXPLANATION OF THE STORY:

There are two common explanation of the story. First, when Kim dreams, she sends her thoughts to the old man. This means when Kim is dreaming, the old man thinks he is seeing a ghost. The second explanation is that when Kim dreams, her spirit leaves her body and visits the old man's house. Kim's spirit, then, appears to the old man in the form of ghost.

Permutation and Combination (Exercise 1.3)

A boy puts his hand into a bag which contains 10 differently coloured marbles and brings out 3. How many different results are possible? Solution :  3 marbles can be choosen from 10 marbles in,                 C(10, 3) = 10 ! 7 ! .3 ! = 10 ∗ 9 ∗ 8 3 ∗ 2 ∗ 1 = 120 ways.   Find the number of ways in which a student can select 5 courses out of 8 courses. If 3 courses are compulsory, in how many ways can the selections be made? Solution : The student can be select 5 courses out of 8 courses in,                 C(8, 5) = 8 ...

Physics: Simple Harmonic Motion - SHM

Simple Harmonic Motion(SHM) What is Periodic motion? The motion which repeats itself after equal intervals of time is called periodic motion . For example: the motion of planets and satellites, vibration of springs, motion of pendulum, motion of different hands in watch etc. What is Simple Harmonic Motion? The periodic motion in which particle moves to and fro (back and forth) such that the acceleration of the particle is directly proportional to the displacement from mean position and directed towards the mean position is called simple harmonic motion. i.e. for SHM, a ∝ y ( where y is the displacement from mean position) or, a = −ky ..........................(i) (Where, k is proportionality constant. Negative sign shows that the acceleration opposes the displacement from mean position.) SHM in terms of uniform circular motion(Characteristics of SHM): Equation of SHM: Consider a particle moving in a circular orbit having centre at O and radius r with uniform angular velocity ω. Let P...

Acoustic Phenomena || Physics Grade XII

Acoustic Phenomena: The branch of physics which deals with the process of production, transmission and reception of sound  is called acoustics. Pressure Amplitude:  Sound wave is a longitudinal wave. It propagates in a medium in the form of compression and  rarefaction i.e. variation in pressure takes place in the medium during the propagation of sound. So,  sound wave or longitudinal wave is also called a pressure wave. The maximum change in pressure in  the medium during the propagation of longitudinal wave is called pressure amplitude. Expression for Pressure amplitude: Consider a wave propagating through air along positive x-direction. The displacement of the vibrating layer of air can be expressed as; y = asin(𝜔𝑡 − 𝑘𝑥) ……………………….( 1) (where a = displacement amplitude, 𝜔 = angular frequency and k = wave vector or propagation constant.) Consider an infinitely small cylindrical vibrating layer of air of length ∆𝑥 and cross-section area ‘A’. Let the left...
