Semester Kick-Off

Today was the D Day and it was today that I started off with the semester exams of the First Semester exams.....

The first college exam of my life and that went ummm lets say not horrific but not to be remembered at all...

It all started with the Mechanical Workshop where i was alloted to work on a Lathe. Now a Lathe happens to be a composite machine where various jobs can be performed and as well as it happens to be the nightmare for all engineering students ( Maybe just ME) .. So we had a tough time performing taper turning the given sample of MILD STEEL bar. Also we came to know that all of a sudden we had miscalculated the angle of taper turning. And finally we ended with a sample with less that adequate Facing operation done on it.

PHYSICS PRACTICAL.... Well that made up and balanced with the disasters of the rest of the day. I wanted to do the Modulus of Rigidity by Dynamic Method and got it at once as well as the readings were perfect...  (had it cross checked with the lab manual readings ;) ) as well and the VIVA was a breeze (considering the teacher was more interested in answering his own questions rather than listening our answers... :) ) Also he gave us an "assignment" to find out how the fan out here in our home works.. i.e. To find the working principle behind the Working of a FAN . Presently I am searching the same on the Net..... As well I am getting more interested in various video tutorials and stuff regarding computers ..

As soon as the semester ends I am planning to do some research work on all the things which I have in mind......
