Devika Basak answered
Understanding the Statements
To determine the correctness of the given statements, let's analyze them one by one.
Statement 1: Positive and Negative Integer Addition
- When a positive integer (e.g., +5) and a negative integer (e.g., -3) are added, the result depends on their absolute values.
- If the positive integer is larger than the negative integer, the result will be positive (e.g., +5 + -3 = +2).
- If the negative integer is larger, the result will be negative (e.g., +3 + -5 = -2).
- Thus, Statement 1 is incorrect because we do not always get a negative integer.
Statement 2: Adding Two Negative Integers
- When two negative integers (e.g., -2 and -3) are added, the result is always negative.
- For example, -2 + -3 = -5.
- This means that the sum of two negative integers will never yield a positive integer.
- Therefore, Statement 2 is also incorrect.
Conclusion
- Both statements are incorrect based on the definitions of adding positive and negative integers.
- Thus, the correct answer is option 'D': Neither Statement 1 nor Statement 2 is correct.
Understanding these principles is essential for mastering integer operations in mathematics.

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

Understanding Additive Inverse
The additive inverse of a number is what you add to that number to get zero. For any integer 'x', the additive inverse is '-x'.
Negative Integer Example
Consider a negative integer, for example, -5. The additive inverse of -5 is calculated as follows:
- Additive Inverse = -(-5) = 5
Thus, the additive inverse of a negative integer is always a positive integer.
Explanation of Options
Let's analyze the given options:
- a) Is always negative
- This is incorrect because the additive inverse of a negative integer is positive.
- b) Is always positive
- This is the correct answer. The additive inverse of any negative integer results in a positive integer.
- c) Is the same integer
- This option is incorrect. The additive inverse changes the sign, so it cannot be the same integer.
- d) Zero
- This is also incorrect. The additive inverse of a negative integer is not zero but a positive integer.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the additive inverse of a negative integer is always positive. This means that if you have a negative number and you take its additive inverse, you will always end up with a positive number, ensuring the sum equals zero when added together.

Aditya Menon answered
Understanding Comets
Comets are fascinating celestial objects that capture our imagination with their stunning appearances and unique characteristics.
Composition of Comets
- Comets are primarily made up of:
- Dust
- Ice
- Gases
These materials are often described as "dirty snowballs" because of their icy cores mixed with dust.
Formation of the Coma
- As a comet approaches the Sun, the heat causes the ice to vaporize.
- This process creates a glowing envelope of gas and dust around the nucleus called the coma.
- The coma can be quite large, sometimes extending thousands of kilometers into space.
The Tail of the Comet
- The solar wind and radiation pressure from the Sun push the gas and dust away from the coma, forming a tail.
- This tail can stretch millions of kilometers and is always directed away from the Sun, regardless of the comet's direction of travel.
Differences from Other Celestial Objects
- Unlike asteroids, which are rocky and mostly found in the asteroid belt, comets are icy bodies that originate from the outer regions of the solar system.
- Moons are natural satellites orbiting planets, while dwarf planets are celestial bodies that are not classified as full-fledged planets but are larger than asteroids.
In summary, the correct answer is C) Comet, as it is the only object in the options that forms a coma and tail when near the Sun due to its unique composition of dust, ice, and gases.

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

Understanding the Water Cycle
The phenomenon driven by the Sun that involves the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth is known as the water cycle.
Key Stages of the Water Cycle:
- Evaporation:
- Water from oceans, rivers, and lakes heats up due to the Sun's energy and transforms into water vapor, rising into the atmosphere.
- Condensation:
- As the water vapor rises, it cools and condenses to form clouds. This process is crucial for the formation of precipitation.
- Precipitation:
- When the clouds become heavy with water droplets, they release this water back to the Earth in the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
- Collection:
- The precipitation collects in bodies of water like rivers, lakes, and oceans, where the cycle begins anew. Some water also seeps into the ground, replenishing groundwater supplies.
Importance of the Water Cycle:
- Supports Life:
- The water cycle is essential for all living organisms. It provides fresh water for drinking, agriculture, and sanitation.
- Climate Regulation:
- It plays a crucial role in regulating the Earth's climate by distributing heat and moisture around the planet.
- Ecosystem Balance:
- The cycle maintains the balance of ecosystems by ensuring that plants and animals have access to water.
In summary, the water cycle is a vital system driven by solar energy, ensuring the continuous movement and recycling of water, supporting life, and regulating climate.

Understanding Venus' Visibility
Venus, often referred to as the "Evening Star" or "Morning Star," is one of the brightest objects in the night sky. Its visibility throughout the year can be attributed to its position relative to the Earth and the Sun.
Why Venus is Visible at Dawn or Dusk
- Orbit and Position: Venus orbits the Sun at a distance closer than Earth. This means that it is often situated between the Earth and the Sun, making it visible during certain times of the day.
- Phases of Venus: Similar to the Moon, Venus goes through phases. During its cycle, it can be seen just before sunrise (dawn) or just after sunset (dusk), depending on its position in its orbit.
- Brightness: Venus reflects sunlight effectively, making it exceptionally bright, which contributes to its visibility at these times.
Comparison with Other Times
- Midnight: At midnight, Venus is usually on the opposite side of the Sun, making it difficult to observe.
- Noon: During midday, the Sun's brightness overshadows Venus, rendering it invisible to the naked eye.
- Throughout the Day: Although Venus can occasionally be seen during the day, it is not consistently visible due to the Sun's glare.
Conclusion
In summary, Venus can be observed most of the year primarily at dawn or dusk, making option 'C' the correct choice. Its unique position in the solar system allows it to shine brightly during these times, captivating skywatchers around the globe.

EduRev CAT answered
We are given the integers 10, 0, 4, 5, 7. We need to arrange them in both ascending order (smallest to largest) and descending order (largest to smallest). Then we must check which integer always comes in the middle.
Step 1: Arrange in ascending order
Ascending means from the smallest to the greatest: 0, 4, 5, 7, 10.
Here, the middle number is the third one (since there are 5 numbers). So, the middle is 5.
Step 2: Arrange in descending order
Descending means from the greatest to the smallest: 10, 7, 5, 4, 0.
Here again, the middle number is the third one. So, the middle is still 5.
Step 3: Compare both
Middle in ascending order = 5.
Middle in descending order = 5.
So, 5 always remains in the middle, no matter how we arrange.
Final Answer: The integer that always stays in the middle is a) 5
