    What drives many Indians to seek opportunities abroad despite the country's economic growth?
    • a)
      A lack of education in India
    • b)
      The pursuit of better job opportunities and economic stability
    • c)

    Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

    Learnpro Institute answered
    Many Indians are motivated to migrate due to the pursuit of better job opportunities and economic stability, which sometimes contrasts with the reality of their home country's improving economy. This phenomenon reflects a migration paradox where, despite GDP growth, issues such as unemployment and social disparity remain prevalent. An interesting fact is that the Indian diaspora is one of the largest in the world, with many individuals achieving significant success in their host countries while others face challenges as undocumented migrants. This indicates a complex interplay between aspiration and reality in the migration experience.

    Effective Span and Load Calculation
    To start, the effective span of the beam is 5 m and the total working load is 20 kN/m.
    Determine the Factored Load
    - Factored Load (w) = 1.5 × Total Working Load
    - w = 1.5 × 20 kN/m = 30 kN/m

    Water at 10°C flows from a large reservoir to a smaller one through a 5-cm-diameter cast iron piping system, as shown in Fig. Determine the elevation z1 (in m) for a flow rate of 6 L/s.
    The density and dynamic viscosity of water at 10° C are ρ = 999.7 kg⁄m3 and μ = 1.307 × 10−3 kg⁄m ∙ s. The coefficient of friction = 0.0315.
    Correct answer is 'Range: 31 to 33'. Can you explain this answer?

    Engineers Adda answered
    The density and dynamic viscosity of water at 10° C are ρ = 999.7 kg⁄m3 and μ = 1.307 × 10−3 kg⁄m ∙ s.
    The piping system involves 89 m of piping, a sharp-edged entrance (KL = 0.5), two standard flanged elbows (KL = 0.3 each), a fully open gate valve (KL = 0.2), and a submerged exit (KL = 1.06). We choose points 1 and 2 at the free surfaces of the two reservoirs. Noting that the fluid at both points is open to the atmosphere (and thus p1 = p2 = patm ) and that the fluid velocities at both points are zero (V1 = V2 = 0), the energy equation for a control volume between these two points simplifies to
    Since the diameter of the piping system is constant. The average velocity in the pipe and the Reynolds number are
    Therefore, the free surface of the first reservoir must be 31.9 m above the ground level to ensure water flow between the two reservoirs at the specified rate.

    Crafty Classes answered
    The primary objective of the Nutrient Based Subsidy (NBS) scheme is to promote balanced fertilization by encouraging the use of Phosphorus and Potassium fertilizers in addition to Nitrogen. This approach helps improve soil health and ensures that plants receive a more comprehensive range of nutrients necessary for optimal growth. It aims to reduce the over-reliance on nitrogen and supports farmers by making essential fertilizers more accessible and affordable. An interesting fact about balanced fertilization is that it not only improves crop yields but also enhances soil fertility over time, leading to sustainable agricultural practices.

    Explanation:

    Duration of the Storm:
    - The storm duration can be determined by the time from the start of the effective storm to the peak flow in the direct-runoff hydrograph.
    - In this case, the time from the start of the storm to the peak flow is 24 hours.
    - Therefore, the storm duration is less than 24 hours.
