What relationship between illumination and visibility?
Illumination involves a source of light being emitted. To have visibility, the human eye requires illumination of light for things to be seen. Visibility is the state of being seen. To be visible you must have a level of illumination--a source of light.
Is the Moorish Science Temple of America subject to the jurisdiction of the US?
Yes. Founded by Noble Drew Ali in 1913 in Newark, New Jersey, (first known as The Ancient Canaanite Temple) " The Moorish Science Temple of America is a lawfully CHARTERED and INCORPORATED ORGANIZATION. " See the Moorish Holy Koran Chapter 48 ayat 4. Charters for the Moorish Science Temple of America are issued to every STATE throughout the United States.
What are 5 space spinoffs?
There are more space technology spinoffs than people realize, and though most are used in Engineering, Industrial, and Scientific applications, but a few consumer applications that are more well known are:Lithium Ion Batteries - not originally developed for NASA, but NASA funded further development to power the HST / ISS Pistol Grip Tool. The technology has found its way into the global marketplace.Solid State Devices (SSD) - SSD technology was developed for the Hubble program. The original recording device on Hubble actually had magnetic recording tapes; the Solid State Recorder, developed in the early 90's and deployed on HST on the 1st Servicing/Repair mission, replaced the old recorder and is the foreunner of SSD devices. SSD technology is widely used today in Flash drives, SSD disk drives, etc.Tempurpedic Foam (Memory Foam) - The Tempurpedic company is the only one that used NASA's technology for memory foam, using the patented NASA technology through NASA's partnership program. The material was specifically designed for use on Astronaut seats in the Shuttle.Imaging Technology - CMOS sensor technology, widely used in digital cameras, medical scanners, and many other applications, was further developed for use on the Hubble Telescope. Imaging technology continues to advance as a result.MARCbot - The MARCbot, currently used by thousands of soldiers in Iraq to locate IED's, was significantly upgraded by NASA engineers, improving its capability, mobility, and cost per unit.You can view many of the hundreds of spinoffs at NASA's Spinoff site - the link is below.
Which state in India feels minimum difference between the duration of day and night?
The furthest south Kerala and Tamil Nadu.
Was it worth spending all that money to make the hubble telescope?
Absolutely - most people only tend to view the science aspect of HST, and not the commercial application advancements that have been made in it's long history. Some of those you're probably familiar with, but don't realize where the development of the technology came from:Lithium Ion Batteries - Li Ion battery technology was further funded by NASA's Goddard Space Center for the HST/ISS Pistol Grip Tool, used to service the Hubble and construct the International Space Station. Though the design is based on a standard cordless drill (Black & Decker was initially approached for a design, but declined) the power pack is a series of Li Ion cells. The PGT was one key program I was responsible for, and it was initially used in 1997 on the HST 2nd Servicing Mission. Though they still have the same problems we had back then (they tend to overheat occasionally in certain situations) they're still the rechargeable power cell of choice for the masses, and it's only been in the past few years that BD/DeWalt and other companies have started using them in their tools.Solid State Drives / Flash Drives - SSD's and Flash Drives are a direct result of a Hubble Telescope replacement unit called the Solid State Recorder. Replacing 2 mechanical reel-reel tape drives on HST Servicing Missions 2 and 3A, SSR technology has literally changed the way digital data is stored, eliminating the need for mechanical drives.Medical Scanning Technology - Much of the enhanced medical scanning technology you're familiar with (CRT's, MRI's, etc.) are directly related to Hubble Telescope imaging technology advancements.Charge-Coupled Devices (CCD's) - A direct result of Hubble Telescope imaging technology, CCD's are the electronic imaging core of every modern digital camera in use today, digital imaging devices used in medical and industrial applications, as well as satellite imaging.Composite Materials - There are many carbon and metal composite materials that were originally developed for NASA programs. All spacecraft are manufactured with lightweight composites, and the various materials have improved over the years. Everything from cars to planes have benefited from the technology.Infrared Technology - Everything from infrared thermometers to IR cameras owes its development to technology developed for astronomical research.There are some pics on my Supervisor bio page of the PGT and other HST systems, and the link below will direct you to the NASA Spinoff/Innovative Partnerships Program site.

Food Science( for standard XI only),Political Science, Agriculture Science and Technology, Animal Science and technology, Information Technology (Science), Mathematics and Statistics (For Art and Science).
What is the relationship between state and law?
Distinguish between a public law relationship and a private law relationship.
How does one differentiate science from technology?
Technology is the result of extensive science studies. Science is the foundation of technology. Another way to state this is to see that science creates the knowledge that creates new technologies. Both elements are interconnected.
