Add more Years to your Life

These calculations have been made considering average human life span  to be 50 years. 

Adults sleep for about 8 or more hours per day usually. This means we spend about 1/3rd of a day in sleep.
Time spent in sleeping per day = 1/3 day
Time spent in sleeping per month = 1/3 x 30 = 10 days
Time spent in sleeping per year = 12 x 10 days = 120 days = 4 months

This means in one year we spend 4 out of 12 months in sleep. And in 50 years we spend 4 x 50 months in sleep which make about 16.7 years. 

Now if we reduce this amount to 6 hours per day.
Time spent in sleep per day = 6/24 day = 1/4 day
This way time spent in sleep for 50 years will be 12.5 years. So you are adding more than 4 years in your life. 

Some people might complain that this much sleep is not sufficient for them. There is a solution for it as well. Taking a short nap at noon between 12:00 to 16:00(4 pm) will make you fresh even if you sleep for like 5 to 6 hours at night. The ideal time for afternoon nap can be between 20-50 minutes. After this nap you'll feel completely fresh. 

Moreover the night sleep should be managed according to the sleep cycle which lasts for 90-120 minutes . Details about sleep cycle and its management would be posted soon on the same blog.

Inverse of a Function

Inverse of a Function In this Post I will discuss the method for finding the inverse of a given function from the 4 options as given in the Entrance tests of Engineering Universities. The very first step before finding the inverse is to make a check whether the function is One-to-One or not.  By One-to-One function we mean that function for example f(x) should not have the same value at two different values of x. In other words for each element of the Domain there should be a distinct element in the range. Check for One-to-One: A function which passes the horizontal line test is a One-to-One function. This means if a horizontal line is drawn it should not cross the function curve at more than one point. Another way to check if a function is One-to-One or not is shown below: If , f(a) = f(b) , implies that a=b , the given function is One-to-One. Consider the following examples: f(x) = 5x + 10 f(a) = 5a + 10 f(b) = 5b + 10 Taking f(a) = f(b) gives, 5a...
