Visual Deception Visual phenomena or what we normally call as ‘Optical Illusion’ involves visual deception. A wide range of optical illusions happen in our day to day lives‚ like seeing a rainbow after a rainy day or even while staring at clouds; In this phenomenon‚ the human brain tends to develop different pictures to interpret the shape‚ curve‚ and size of the clouds. Optical illusions are just cases of errors in judgment; they do not physically exist. Our eyes capture light from

1. Explain briefly the characteristics of communication. It is unavoidable – It is impossible not to communicate‚ since we communicate unintentionally all the time‚ even without the use of words.

Coastal Processes Coasts are shaped by the sea and the action of waves. Waves act in different ways‚ through the processes of erosion‚ transportation and deposition. Coasts: A coast is found where the land meets the sea. Coasts undergo change due to coastal processes and (as with rivers) there are main processes at work: Erosion Transportation Deposition Each of these processes involves the power of the sea and the effect of waves that are carried to shore. However other factors also

TRADITIONAL MANUFACTURING PROCESSES- An overview Introduction Non-traditional manufacturing processes is defined as a group of processes that remove excess material by various techniques involving mechanical‚ thermal‚ electrical or chemical energy or combinations of these energies but do not use a sharp cutting tools as it needs to be used for traditional manufacturing processes. Extremely hard and brittle materials are difficult to machine by traditional machining processes such as turning‚ drilling

Before looking at river landforms it is important to understand the more general role of rivers and to develop an awareness of the processes at work within rivers. It is through this knowledge that we will better undertand the processes at work in the geomorphology of the drainage basin. The role of rivers can be understood in very simple terms. The river’s role is to balance its load and transport it to the ocean. But this this idea of rivers as merely transporting weathered material to the ocean

COGNITIVE LEARNING What is cognitive learning? Not all cases of learning can easily be captured by classical conditioning and operant conditioning. Learning would be extremely inefficient if we had to rely completely on conditioning for all our learning. Human beings can learn efficiently by observation‚ taking instruction‚ and imitating the behavior of others. Cognitive learning is a powerful mechanism that provides the means of knowledge‚ and goes well beyond simple imitation of others. Conditioning

Visual Analysis of Mediated Images Though a visual may be analysed in many ways‚ of late a convention has been established to study under Six major schools of thought. 1. The personal perspective deals with an emotional subjective opinion. ‘What do I think of the picture’. It’s the first response or first thought that crosses your mind on viewing the picture. It bears personal bias and prejudices. 2. The historical perspective helps to determine the importance of the work based on the

Denudation Processes While volcanic activities are a mountain’s building process‚ denudation processes are trying to level them down. Denudation includes processes which removes rock debris and carrying them to a new location. These processes happen through gravity‚ wind‚ ice and water. In the Tongariro Volcanic Centre‚ winds are an effective denudation agent because the mountain top gales are frequent and severe. Winds can transport and deposit debris. They carry with them fine silts and sand
