Morse Code

Although cellphones and SMS have pretty much made Morse Code moribund - its most popular current use is probably by amateur radio operators - this is a sub-category dedicated to the dots 'n dashes of the code that was invented by Samuel F.B. Morse in 1838. Find out "What is the most famous distress signal in Morse Code?" or "How do you communicate using Morse Code?

What is Morse test?

Morse test is done on a 4 stroke multi cylinder engine. The objective is to find the brake power (power available at the crank shaft) of the engine. You can also find torque, mech. efficiency etc...

Let us consider a 4 cylinder spark ignition (petrol engine) engine for an example.

The following steps are to be performed

1. The engine is started and is run at the rated speed.

2. The maximum load of the engine is calculated and is connected to the engine . The engine is now brought to its rated speed .

3. The first cylinder is cut off by shorting the spark plug .

4. Now because the cylinder is cut off the engine speed is reduced.

5. Hence the load is to be varied such that the engine comes back to its rated speed.

6. Then the first cylinder is again started and the same is repeated for all the other cylinders.

The engine can be loaded using a dynamo meter (hydraulic or eddy current)

Who invented the Morse code equipment?

The land telegraph was invented by Samuel F. B. Morse, in the 1830s I think. He built this thing that when a button was pushed at one place, it could cause a clacker to go clack at the other end of a wire many miles long. In order to send information over it, he invented a code of clacks for each letter of the alphabet ... which he modestly called Morse's Code.

What role do computers play with the Enigma machine?

None at all. The Enigma cypher machine was a primitive electromechanical device that was entirely manually operated. It required 3 soldiers to send/receive messages with it:

  1. the typist that entered the message on the keyboard one letter at a time
  2. the transcriber that read the message from the lights one letter at a time
  3. the radiotelegraph operator that sent/received the messages in Morse Code

The British initially broke these messages by hand, but later built electromechanical machines called "Bombe"s. Even using a Bombe it could take hours of manual analysis of a message before the Bombe could be setup and started. If the Bombe succeeded in cracking the cypher, it did not decrypt it but only provided the Enigma key. That key then had to be setup on a Typex cypher machine configured to operate as the Enigma did and the original message typed by hand into the Typex (which at least automatically printed it, unlike the Enigma).

The Bombe was in no way a computer.

What does a dot in an equation mean?

A dot stands for multiplication.

Ways to show multiplication:

10a

10 x a

10(a)

10 *dot* a

What is the Morse code on cj's apartment?

Morse code on CJ's apartment spells out a message that typically reflects a personal or thematic significance in the context of the story. In the game "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas," CJ's apartment features Morse code that translates to "The Truth is Out There," hinting at themes of conspiracy and exploration.

How can you find out the name of a song used on the Inspector Morse program Fat Chance It is the music where the overweight obsessive eater is lying on the floor by the window and Morse walks in?

If I remember this scene correctly, then the music you are asking about is Laudate Dominum, which is from the Vespers by Mozart. If you want the whole of the Vespers (other parts of this work also feature in this episode of Morse), it usually comes on a CD with other church music by Mozart. I'd recommend a CD by Kiri te Kanawa with Colin Davis and the LSO on Philips.

If you're not bothered about the rest of the Vespers, there is a wonderful performance of Laudate Dominum on a CD called the Radiant Voice of Barbara Bonney - this CD has lots of other glorious music on it.

If cost is a problem, then you could simply download the Laudate Dominum track as an MP3 file. You can do this on Amazon by searching for either of the CDs I mentioned above. The cost would be less than £1.
