His important contributions to the field of botany include the invention of the crescograph which measures the growth of plants.


Fact 1:-

 Bose was born in Mymensingh, Bengal Presidency during the British Raj in what is present-day Bangladesh

Fact 2:-

 Although his father was a Brahmo and deputy magistrate he sent his son to a local Indian school rather than an upper-class English school to learn his native language and customs.

He rejected the idea of caste.





Fact 3:-

 Although he was a victim of racism and was not given time or facilities for research, Bose spent his own money and free time to research radio waves.


Fact 4:-

 Bose was the first to use a semiconductor to detect radio waves and he invented several microwave components.


Fact 5:-

 He was the first to demonstrate that conduction in response to stimuli in plants is electrical rather than chemical and was the first to study the effect of microwaves on plants.


Fact 6:-

 On 30 November 2016, Bose was celebrated in a Google Doodle on the 158th anniversary of his birthday.


Fact 7:-

 Sir Nevill Mott, Nobel Laureate in 1977 for his own contributions to solid-state electronics, remarked that "J.C. Bose was at least 60 years ahead of his time. In fact, he had anticipated the existence of P-type and N-type semiconductors."

Black Body Radiation: Wien Displacement Law

What is a Blackbody? A black body is an idealization in physics that pictures a body that absorbs all electromagnetic radiation incident on it irrespective of its frequency or angle. Through the second law of thermodynamics that a body always tries to stay in thermal equilibrium. To stay in thermal equilibrium, a black body must emit radiation at the same rate as it absorbs and so it must also be a good emitter of radiation, emitting electromagnetic waves of as many frequencies as it can absorb i.e. all the frequencies. The black body radiation is governed by the Planck radiation law. The Planck radiation law explains the various electromagnetic radiations emitted by a black body at thermal equilibrium at a fixed temperature. Through the Planck radiation law, we were able to understand that radiation emitted by a body is completely independent of the body’s shape, size or composition and is dependent only on the Temperature of the body. ...
