Where is the tension on sewing machine?
There are two tension adjustments on the home sewing machine. One is the top tension and the other is the bobbin tension. Both tension settings regulate the tension on the sewing thread. The top tension regulates the amount of tension on the thread that moves between the thread spool and the needle which produces the top stitches in your seam. The tighter the tension, the more taut the thread. The looser the tension, the more slack the thread. If tension is too high, the thread is strained, the stitches are tighter and the thread may break. If tension is too low, the thread is slack, and the stitches are loopy and loose. At ideal tension, the thread moves smoothly through the thread path and produces top stitches that are nice and even. The bobbin tension regulates the thread spinning in the bobbin and being pulled up into the bottom stitches. At ideal tension, the bottom stitches are nice and even, and cannot be seen from the top of your stitching. Refer to your sewing machine manual for the ideal tension setting on your particular sewing machine.

How do you terminate a thread which is continuously executing?
A thread that is continuously executing has an infinite loop. To terminate that thread you must break that loop by providing a suitable terminating condition. If the thread is a "worker" thread, the main thread should signal all worker threads to terminate when the main thread terminates. The main thread should remain active until all worker threads have successfully terminated.

Where doe a sewing machine needle fall when it breaks?
Strange question, but anyway if the needle breaks off with no thread attached, it could go flying off any which-way. Check the floor around the machine and the table on which the machine is placed...and your lap, and anything else in the vacinity. If it breaks during sewing (that is, with thread attached through it's tip), it will likely remain attached and end up thrashing around in the bobbin holder. It could also end up there with no thread attached, so, in either case, check the bobbin holder first.
