electronics is usually very undesirable and typically
associated with bad interference. Instead they used the

18. • In 2006, NASA scientist Rabindra Mehta attempted to unravel
the mystery behind this phenomenon through extensive
wind-tunnel testing, and was able to explain it as follows –
“ At speeds of over 80 mph, the laminar boundary transitions
into a turbulent state relatively early, more importantly
before reaching the location. In this case, the
actually has a detrimental effect on the turbulent
boundary layer by making it thicker and weaker and it
therefore separates earlier than the turbulent layer over the
bottom surface. This asymmetry results in a pressure
differential which results in a side force. If the turbulence is
increased, the critical speed at which can be
obtained is reduced.” What phenomenon is being described
here?
26. According to an article in 1940:
“This word is on the most conspicuous wall of every

form the visible spectrum. X also formulated an empirical law
of cooling and studied the speed of sound.
• In mathematics, X shares the credit with Gottfried
Leibniz for the development of differential and integral
calculus. He also demonstrated the generalised binomial
theorem, developed X's method for approximating the roots
of a function, and contributed to the study of power series.

and wrote more on Biblical hermeneutics and occult
