Sapna Kushwah answered |
The correct answer is option 5.
Key Points
- To answer this question, let's first understand the context of the sentence containing the blank labelled as (F):
- In essence, just as internet-based maps have replaced our ability to navigate unfamiliar places, technology is gradually ________ (F) traditional medical practices.
- This sentence implies that technology is gradually replacing traditional medical practices, similar to how internet maps have replaced navigation skills.
- Blank (F) should be filled with a word that indicates the gradual replacement or displacement of traditional medical practices by technology.
- Now, let's understand the meanings of the words given in the question to fill in the blank (F):
- l. Replacing - to take the place of (someone or something) by force, scheming, strategy, or the like (प्रतिस्थापित करना)
- For Example -
- The company is replacing its old machinery with state-of-the-art equipment for better efficiency.
- ll. Supplanting - to supersede or replace (another thing) by force, scheming, strategy, or the like (विलय करना)
- For Example -
- The innovative technology is supplanting traditional methods of manufacturing, leading to increased efficiency.
- lll. Displacing - to take over the place, position, or role of; supplant (बदल देना)
- For Example -
- The construction of the new highway is displacing several families from their homes, sparking protests from the local community.
- So, given the context, all three words "replacing," "supplanting," and "displacing" are suitable to fill in the blank labelled as (F). The sentence discusses how technology is gradually taking the place of traditional medical practices, which can be described by any of these words.
- Therefore, the correct answer is "All l, ll, and lll."
- The complete sentence would be: "In essence, just as internet-based maps have replaced our ability to navigate unfamiliar places, technology is gradually replacing/supplanting/displacing traditional medical practices."

The correct answer is option 2.
Key Points
- To answer this question, let's have a look at all the given sentences in the question:
- Sentence A - In today's age, there's stubble peer pressure among seniors as they witness their peers sharing ambitions to join new assignments or pursue advanced degrees in retirement, redefining traditional retirement concepts.
- The given sentence is grammatically incorrect due to the use of "stubble" instead of "subtle." "Stubble" refers to facial hair, while "subtle" is the appropriate term to convey the intended meaning of discreet or slight peer pressure among seniors.
- The correct sentence would be: In today's age, there's subtle peer pressure among seniors as they witness their peers sharing ambitions to join new assignments or pursue advanced degrees in retirement, redefining traditional retirement concepts.
- Sentence B - Modern retirement theory highlights the evolving concept of seniority, where engagement in purposeful activities through social media can stave on age-related health issues, challenging conventional notions of ageing.
- The given sentence is grammatically incorrect because it uses the phrase "stave on" incorrectly. It should be "stave off" to correctly convey the idea of preventing age-related health issues.
- The correct sentence would be: Modern retirement theory highlights the evolving concept of seniority, where engagement in purposeful activities through social media can stave off age-related health issues, challenging conventional notions of ageing.
- Sentence C - Seniors now explore diverse pursuits, from daring social media challenges to sharing wisdom, recipes, and traditional remedies online, ushering in an era where retirement means staying active, not a life of idleness.
- This sentence is grammatically correct, using the present tense. It discusses how seniors engage in various activities online, redefining retirement as an active lifestyle.
- So, after understanding all three given sentences, we can conclude that both sentences A and B are incorrect while only sentence C is grammatically and contextually correct.
- Therefore, the correct answer is "Both A and B are incorrect."

Raghav Chawla answered • Sep 15, 2024 |
Problem Overview
We need to determine the speed of the stream based on the motorboat's journey downstream and upstream.
Given Data
- Speed of the motorboat in still water: 15 km/hr
- Distance downstream: 30 km
- Total time for the journey: 4 hours 30 minutes = 4.5 hours
Speed of Stream
Let the speed of the stream be \( x \) km/hr.
- D... more:
- \( \text{Speed} = \text{Boat speed} + \text{Stream speed} = 15 + x \) km/hr.
- Upstream Speed:
- \( \text{Speed} = \text{Boat speed} - \text{Stream speed} = 15 - x \) km/hr.
Calculating Time Taken
- Time Downstream:
- \( \text{Time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}} = \frac{30}{15 + x} \) hours.
- Time Upstream:
- \( \text{Time} = \frac{30}{15 - x} \) hours.
Total Time Equation
Setting up the equation for total time:
\[
\frac{30}{15 + x} + \frac{30}{15 - x} = 4.5
\]
Solving the Equation
1. Multiply through by \( (15 + x)(15 - x) \) to eliminate the denominators.
2. The equation simplifies to:
\[
30(15 - x) + 30(15 + x) = 4.5(15^2 - x^2)
\]
3. Simplifying further leads to:
\[
900 = 4.5(225 - x^2)
\]
4. Rearranging gives:
\[
4.5x^2 = 1012.5
\]
5. Solving for \( x^2 \):
\[
x^2 = 225 \implies x = 15
\]
6. Revisiting the equation gives us:
\[
30 = 30 - 6x \implies x = 5 \text{ km/hr}
\]
Conclusion
The speed of the stream is 5 km/hr.
We need to determine the speed of the stream based on the motorboat's journey downstream and upstream.

The Svetambara School of Jainism has three sub-sects:
- Sthanakavasi: They believe in praying to saints rather than to an idol in a temple. The saints wear a muhapatti near their mouth to cover it, unlike Murtipujakas
- Murtipujaka (Deravasi): They keep idols of the tirthankaras at their temples and worship them, and the saints do not wear a muhapatti.
- Terapanthi: They pray to saints rather than to an idol in a temple, like Sthanakavasi. Terapanthi saints also wear a muhapatti near their mouth to cover it.

Statement 1 is incorrect: The Achaemenid rulers of Iran,who expanded their empire at the same time as Magadhan princes took advantage of the political disunity on the north-west frontier. The Indo-Iranian contact lasted for about 200 years.It gave an impetus to IndoIranian trade and commerce. Iranian coins are found in the North-west frontier region which points to the existence of Indo-Iranian But it is wrong to think that the punch-marked coins came into use in India as a result of contact with Iran.
However,various Mahajanapadas issued punch-marked coins in the sixth century BC.
Puranas, Karshapanas, and Panas, the first Indian punch-marked coins, were produced in the 6th century BC by the numerous Janapadas and Mahajanapadas of the Indo-Gangetic Plain.
Statement 2 is incorrect: The Iranian scribes brought into India a form of writing which came to be known as the kharosthi script. It was written from right to left like the Arabic.
Some Ashokan inscriptions in north-west India were written in third century B.C. in this script, which continued to be used in the country till 3rd century A.D.
Statement 3 is correct: Iranian influence on Maurya sculpture is clearly perceptible.The monuments of Ashoka's time, especially the bell-shaped capitals, owed to Iranian models. Iranian influence may also be traced in the preamble of Ashoka's edicts as well as in certain terms used in them. For instance, for Iranian term ‘dipi’, the Ashokan scribe used the term ‘lipi’. Inscription of proclamations on pillars was prevalent in the west Achaemenid empire.

Comprehension:(Que No. 17 - 23)Directions: Read the given passage carefully to answer the following questions. Each question will have five alternatives as its answer. Choose the correct option as your answer. In the bustling city, ____________________, there exists a young man who spends his days immersed in the corporate world. Yet, amid the cacophony of urban life, his thoughts often wander back to his tranquil village, where generations of his family have toiled the land as farmers. It is there, amidst the serene fields and rustic simplicity, that he dreams of returning one day to embrace his roots and cultivate the earth. Driven by this deep-seated desire, he formulates a plan: to devote his life to farming once his urban obligations are fulfilled. With determination blazing in his heart, he bids farewell to the corporate world and embarks on a journey back to his ancestral village. Upon his return, he wastes no time in rolling up his sleeves and getting down to work, eager to share the modern farming techniques he acquired in the city. His first endeavour is to introduce millet cultivation to the village, believing it to be a revolutionary addition to their traditional farming practices. With unwavering dedication, he imparts his knowledge to his fellow villagers, guiding them in the art of cultivating this new crop and implementing advanced farming methods. As the seasons pass, the fruits of their labour begin to manifest. The fields once barren now teem with life, yielding bountiful harvests of millet. But it is not just the crops that flourish under the boy's guidance; the fabric of the community itself transforms. Through his initiative, he fosters a sense of unity among the villagers, encouraging them to come together and share their experiences, challenges, and triumphs. In these collective gatherings, bonds are forged, and wisdom is exchanged, strengthening the community's resolve and resilience. Together, they embark on a journey towards a more sustainable and prosperous future, united by their shared passion for the land and the common goal of building a better tomorrow. As he looks out upon the thriving fields and the smiling faces of his fellow villagers, the boy realizes that he has not only fulfilled his own dreams but has also ignited a spark of change that will endure for generations to come. And at that moment, amidst the tranquillity of his village, he finds true fulfilment and purpose. With each passing day, the sense of camaraderie deepens, and the village blossoms into a vibrant hub of growth and community spirit, a testament to the enduring legacy of his vision and dedication. Which of the following sentence(s) can be inferred from the passage? A. The young man's decision to return to his ancestral village was met with skepticism and resistance from the villagers.
B. The young man's initiative in introducing millet cultivation led to increased crop yields and community cohesion.
