Are electric vehicles really GREEN?

Image
We are in the stage of transition towards electric vehicles from traditional ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) cars. Each and every automobile brand in the world are now launching EVs and are planning to make their line up fully electric by 2030 or above. New start-up companies other than legendary car makers are also going to pump out electric cars. All these legendary brands and start-ups are saying only one thing, "EVs are green!"  Do they really pollute less than ICE vehicles? Let's see! Overview In this blog, I will try my best to make you understand the calculation done and make a clear statement. All the average data are obtained from Google search. Lifetime of a car is divided into the manufacturing phase and running phase.  Source of the fuel they use is also important. So I have addressed that also. Manufacturing phase Ice cars On an average, the amount of CO2 released during its manufacturing phase is approximately 5.5 tonnes. This average is for a medium sized ...

Why validity of network subscription are in multiples of 28?

Image
 Have you ever noticed and questioned others , why the network subscriptions are in multiples of 28 days and not 30 days? In this blog , I will tell the reason,why it is. If you already know the reason,you are doing good! Most of the people prefer short duration of validity like 1 month or 3months. When you calculate the no of times you recharge,if you go for 1month validity, it will 13 be times. (28*13=364 days)   This is same in the case of 3months validity (actually 84 days)   So how can we save our money from this business men's strategy? If you subscribe for an year, you will be saving more money. Here how it is, In Jio, 2GB/ day subscription for a month costs 249 rupees. The same 2GB/ day subscription for a year costs 2399 rupees. If you are not aware of this strategy, you will be recharging 13 times a year, i.e 13*249= 3237 rupees. If you are recharging for a year, you will be paying 2399 rupees. So you can save 838 rupees.  Like wise comparing 2GB/day an...

How much lucky is Tesla and Elon Musk?

Image
On December 23rd Elon replied to a tweet saying that he tried to sell Tesla to Apple for 60billion dollars during model 3 production hell. After seeing that tweet, I wondered how lucky was Tesla, as Tim Cook refused to meet Elon. We are now in a transition towards electric vehicles. Although the gas cars still dominate the roads, it's clear that the future of transportation is going all electric ⚡. All this excitement is because of one person and his company , Elon and his Tesla . Tesla is disrupting automotive industry by providing affordable EVs of all kind. But these never have been achieved that much easily. Up to date, Tesla has gone near to bankruptcy many times. Although Elon managed to save it, he have tried to sell it  many times. Here are the toughest times of Tesla, referred to as " HELL!" Hell No: 1 Their first hell was roadster production. They were running out of time and even money they had. The cost of development of roadster was budgeted $25million. But i...

Let's see! Myth no:1  Myth no 1 is don't use phone while it's charging .  Actually there is no problem with it. You can play games, attend call or do anything you want. But make sure that the phone is in nominal temperature. Because, heat is the number 1 enemy of all electronic devices. Smartphone blasts are 99.9% due to overheating the battery. If you feel the phone getting warmer, then it's time to give some rest to your electronic friend.  Myth no:2 Myth no 2 is  charging the phone overnight will blast the battery.  Sounds fearful but not true.
