Air India launches investigation after two flights encounter severe thunderstorms, suffer damages

The two flights suffered severe turbulence within this week, leading to passenger inconvenience and fear.

Air India has launched an investigation against crew members of flight number AI-467, following an incident in which the plane suffered damages after encountering severe thunderstorm.

The plane for flight number AI-467, operating between New Delhi to Vijayawada, was an Airbus 320. The incident occurred on September 17, but the pilot, as well as the crew members on board, did not report the incident to the airline's flight safety department as per the norm, following which an investigation was launched, according to Air India officials.

Another similar incident was reported on the aircraft Airbus-321 when the flight number AI-048 was plying from New Delhi to Cochin.

The flight encountered bad weather and faced severe thunderstorms, but the pilot immediately reported the incident to the flight safety department. Some crew members of the flight sustained minor injuries in the incident.

After landing at the Cochin airport, the aircraft was grounded for four hours following which it was released for resuming operations.

"In both cases, an investigation is underway. After thorough checking by flight safety department the aircraft was approved for operation," an Air India spokesperson told ANI.

In both incidents, no injuries to passengers was reported.

गरुड़ पुराण कथा और सार – Garud Puran in Hindi

गरुड़ पुराण कथा और सार – Garud Puran in Hindi गरुड़ पुराण कथा – Garud Puran in Hindi गरुड़ पुराण हिन्दू धर्म के प्रसिद्ध वेद पुराण में से एक है। वैष्णव सम्प्रदाय से सम्बन्धित गरुण पुराण हिन्दू धर्म में मृत्यु के बाद सद्गति प्रदान करने वाला माना जाता है। इसलिये सनातन हिन्दू धर्म में मृत्यु के बाद ‘गरुड पुराण’ के श्रवण का प्रावधान है। इस पुराण के अधिष्ठातृ देव भगवान विष्णु हैं। अठारह पुराणों में ‘गरुड़ महापुराण’ का अपना एक विशेष महत्व है। क्योंकि इसके देव स्वयं विष्णु माने जाते हैं, इसीलिए यह वैष्णव पुराण है। गरुड़ पुराण के अनुसार हमारे कर्मों का फल हमें हमारे जीवन में तो मिलता ही है, परंतु मरने के बाद भी कार्यों का अच्छा-बुरा फल मिलता है। इसी वजह से इस ज्ञान को प्राप्त करने के लिए घर के किसी सदस्य की मृत्यु के बाद का अवसर निर्धारित किया गया, ताकि उस समय हम जन्म-मृत्यु से जुड़े सभी सत्य जान सके और मृत्यु वश बिछडऩे वाले सदस्य का दुख कम हो सके। भगवान विष्णु की भक्ति | Devotion to Lord Vishnu वास्तविक तथ्य यह है कि ‘गरुड़ पुराण’ में भगवान विष्णु ...

Pakistan committed one of the biggest blunders by joining U.S. after 9/11, says Imran Khan

Pakistan committed one of the biggest blunders by joining U.S. after 9/11, says Imran Khan Pakistan . Prime Minister Imran Khan admitted on September 24 that Pakistan committed “one of the biggest blunders” by joining the U.S. after the 9/11 attacks, saying the previous governments “should not have pledged what they could not deliver”. Speaking at the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) think-tank here, Mr. Khan also said the least he expects the international community to do is to urge India to lift the curfew in Kashmir. Responding to a question, Mr. Khan said he had urged his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi to “reset” bilateral ties and his government waited to resume talks until after the elections in India were over but then it found that “India is pushing us in the blacklist of the Financial Action Task Force to bankrupt us”. He said that by abrogating Article 370, India had cast aside the UN Security Council resolutions, the Simla accord and its ...

Science, Tech, Math › Science Laws of Thermodynamics as Related to Biology Share Flipboard Email Energy and Thermodynamics Mikael Häggström/Public Domain by Regina Bailey Updated July 09, 2019 The laws of thermodynamics are important unifying principles of biology. These principles govern the chemical processes (metabolism) in all biological organisms. The First Law of Thermodynamics, also known as the law of conservation of energy, states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It may change from one form to another, but the energy in a closed system remains constant. The Second Law of Thermodynamics states that when energy is transferred, there will be less energy available at the end of the transfer process than at the beginning. Due to entropy, which is the measure of disorder in a closed system, all of the available energy will not be useful to the organism. Entropy increases as energy is transferred. In addition to the laws of thermodynamics, the cell theory, gene theory, evolution, and homeostasis form the basic principles that are the foundation for the study of life. First Law of Thermodynamics in Biological Systems All biological organisms require energy to survive. In a closed system, such as the universe, this energy is not consumed but transformed from one form to another. Cells, for example, perform a number of important processes. These processes require energy. In photosynthesis, the energy is supplied by the sun. Light energy is absorbed by cells in plant leaves and converted to chemical energy. The chemical energy is stored in the form of glucose, which is used to form complex carbohydrates necessary to build plant mass. The energy stored in glucose can also be released through cellular respiration. This process allows plant and animal organisms to access the energy stored in carbohydrates, lipids, and other macromolecules through the production of ATP. This energy is needed to perform cell functions such as DNA replication, mitosis, meiosis, cell movement, endocytosis, exocytosis, and apoptosis. Second Law of Thermodynamics in Biological Systems As with other biological processes, the transfer of energy is not 100 percent efficient. In photosynthesis, for example, not all of the light energy is absorbed by the plant. Some energy is reflected and some is lost as heat. The loss of energy to the surrounding environment results in an increase of disorder or entropy. Unlike plants and other photosynthetic organisms, animals cannot generate energy directly from the sunlight. They must consume plants or other animal organisms for energy. The higher up an organism is on the food chain, the less available energy it receives from its food sources. Much of this energy is lost during metabolic processes performed by the producers and primary consumers that are eaten. Therefore, much less energy is available for organisms at higher trophic levels. (Trophic levels are groups that help ecologists understand the specific role of all living things in the ecosystem.) The lower the available energy, the less number of organisms can be supported. This is why there are more producers than consumers in an ecosystem. Living systems require constant energy input to maintain their highly ordered state. Cells, for example, are highly ordered and have low entropy. In the process of maintaining this order, some energy is lost to the surroundings or transformed. So while cells are ordered, the processes performed to maintain that order result in an increase in entropy in the cell's/organism's surroundings. The transfer of energy causes entropy in the universe to increase.
