1β£IIT Kanpur, renowned for its research and innovation, has made a significant stride in the field of weather modification. After years of dedicated efforts, scientists at the institute have successfully conducted a test of artificial rain through cloud seeding.
2β£During the test, a Cessna aircraft took flight from IIT Kanpur's airstrip, reaching an altitude of 5000 feet.
Using cloud seeding technology, the aircraft released chemical powder into the clouds, stimulating the formation of raindrops. Shortly after, rainfall was observed in the surrounding areas, validating the effectiveness of the artificial rain technique.
3β£Notably, the technology employed in this process is expected to have no adverse effects on the environment, making it a sustainable solution to water scarcity challenges.

Regelation only occurs for materials that expand upon freezing(expansion in solid state) so that the melting point decreases as external pressure increases. What this means is that regelation occurs in other materials, such as gallium, bismuth and water.
Regelation is defined as the phenomenon in which the ice melts to the water below 0Β°C on the application of pressure and refreezes back to ice on the removal of pressure. Regelation demonstrates the idea of compressing the ice and turning it into water under pressure and when the pressure is removed, it solidifies again.
1. Why is travelling on ice is way slippery or why it's easier to skate on snow??
Skating is possible on snow due to the formation of water under the skates. Water is formed due to increase of pressure and it acts as lubricant.
Question to you : Why lubricants cause smoothness to the surface.

Regelation for water
Regelation is defined as the phenomenon in which the ice melts to the water below 0Β°C on the application of pressure and refreezes back to ice on the removal of pressure. Regelation demonstrates the idea of compressing the ice and turning it into water under pressure and when the pressure is removed, it solidifies again.
Real life examples of Regelation

On the basis of Bernoulliβs principle
For a non-spinning ball, the streamlines around the ball move relative to the fluid. From the symmetry of streamlines, it can be incurred that the pressure difference at points above and below the ball at corresponding points is zero as the velocity of the fluid above and below the ball at the corresponding points is the same. Hence, no upward or downward force on ball.
But For a spinning ball, the air is dragged along a spinning ball as it moves. If the ball moves forward, air relatively moves in the backward direction, therefore, the relative velocity of the air above the ball is larger than that below the ball. The streamlines thus get rarified below and crowded above the ball. The difference in the velocity between the corresponding points above and below the ball result in a pressure difference between the two faces and a net upward force acts on the ball. This results in a dynamic lift that the ball experiences which is termed as the Magnus effect.
