A total of 117 Indian athletes participating in Paris Olympic 2024

-
A total of 117 Indian athletes, including five reserves, are on the hunt for medals and sporting immortality at the Paris 2024 Olympics, which runs from July 26 to August 11.
There will be Indian interest in a total of 69 medal events across 16 sports - archery, athletics, badminton, boxing, equestrian, golf, hockey, judo, rowing, sailing, shooting, swimming, table tennis and tennis - at the Paris 2024 Olympics.

Neeraj Chopra, who created history at Tokyo 2020 by winning gold in men’s javelin throw, is a part of the 29-member Indian athletics contingent to France and will look to contribute to India's Paris 2024 Olympics medal tally.

Badminton ace PV Sindhu, weightlifter Mirabai Chanu, boxer Lovlina Borgohain and select members of the Harmanpreet Singh-led Indian men’s hockey team will be the other returning Olympic medallists in the Indian contingent to Paris 2024.

The likes of Avinash Sable, Antim Panghal, Rohan Bopanna, Chirag Shetty-Satwiksairak Rankireddy, Vinesh Phogat and Aman Sehrawat will also be eager to add to India’s Olympic medal tally at Paris 2024.
Manu Bhaker won the first medal for India at the Paris 2024 Olympics. She bagged a brone and became the first Indian woman to win an Olympic shooting medal. She then created history to become the first Indian to win two medals at a single edition of the Olympics after she clinched a mixed team 10m air pistol bronze with Sarabjot Singh.

Overall, India have won 37 medals at the Olympics to date. Interestingly, it was Norman Pritchard’s dual silver which opened India’s account in Paris 1900.

KD Jadhav, with a wrestling bronze at Helsinki 1952, was the first individual athlete from independent India to get on the Olympic medal winners list. Weightlifter Karnam Malleswari became the first woman to win an Olympic medal at Sydney 2000.

Rifle shooter Abhinav Bindra was the first Indian to win an Olympic gold medal in an individual event at Beijing 2008 and was the only one to do so for over a decade before Neeraj’s javelin triumph at Tokyo 2020.

Men’s hockey, with 12 medals including eight golds, has been the biggest contributor to India’s Olympic medals tally followed by wrestling with seven medals.

India returned with its best-ever haul of seven medals, including one gold, from Tokyo 2020 and will look to better the count at Paris 2024.

So far, India have won two medal, both bronze, at the Paris 2024 Olympics.

PARIS 2024

भारतीय निशानेबाज मनु भाकर ने इतिहास रच दिया है. उन्होंने पेरिस ओलंपिक 2024 में धमाकेदार प्रदर्शन करते हुए दो ब्रॉन्ज मेडल अपने नाम किया है. इसके साथ ही वो एक ओलंपिक में दो मेडल जीतने वाली पहली भारतीय बन गई है. मनु ने पहला मेडल 10 मीटर एयर पिस्टल सिंगल इवेंट में ब्रॉन्ज मेडल जीता था. वहीं आज मनु भाकर और सरबजोत सिंह की जोड़ी ने 10 मीटर एयर पिस्टल मिक्स्ड टीम इवेंट में ब्रॉन्ज मेडल जीता है...
                            मनु भाकर जी एवं समस्त देशवासियों को बधाई।

Determination of Focal Length of Concave Mirror and Convex Lens Before getting started with the experiment, it is important to understand a few terms that are used in a concave mirror and convex lens: Centre of curvature: For a curved mirror, the centre of curvature, C can be defined as the centre of a hollow glass sphere of which a curved mirror is a part. Radius of curvature: For a curved mirror, the radius of curvature, R can be defined as the radius of the hollow glass sphere of a spherical mirror is part. Principal axis: Principal axis is defined as the imaginary line passing through the pole and centre of curvature of the spherical mirror. Principal focus: Principal focus is defined as a point at which the reflected rays meet or appear to meet for the spherical mirror.  For a concave mirror, the principal focus is in the front and  For a convex mirror, the principal focus is at the behind. Below is an experiment to determine the focal length of a concave m...

Tracing Path of a Ray of Light Passing Through a Glass Slab Refraction is the property of light due to which it bends its path while travelling from one medium to another. The law of refraction is also known as Snell’s law which states that the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction is equal to constant. Below is an experiment to trace the path of a light ray passing through the rectangular glass slab. Table of Contents: Aim Theory Materials Required Procedure7 Ruay Diagram Observation Table Conclusion Precautions Sources of Error Viva Questions Aim To trace the path of a ray of light passing through a rectangular glass slab for different angles of incidence. Measure the angle of incidence, angle of refraction, and angle of emergence, and interpret the result. Theory What are the laws of refraction ? Following are the laws of refraction: (I) The incident ray, the normal at the point of incidence, and the refracted ray lie in the s...
