A certain distance is covered at a certain speed. If half of this distance is covered in double the time, the ratio of the two speeds is
  • a)
    4 :1
  • b)
    1 : 4
  • c)
    2 : 1
  • d)
    1 : 2
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Let distance 'x' is covered by speed 'S' in time 't'
i.e. S=x/t ...(1)

Now if new speed is 's' which is covered half of distance (x) in double time (t)

i.e. distance for speed 's' = x/2 (half of actual distance)

and time taken by speed 's' = 2t (double of actual time)

Then, s = (x/2)/2t = (1/4)×(x/t)

Putting x/t = S from eqn. (1)

=> s = (1/4)×S
=> S:s = 4:1

A person crosses a 600 m long street in 5 minutes. What is his speed in km per hour?
  • a)
    3.6
  • b)
    7.2
  • c)
    8.4
  • d)
    10
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Given Distance = 600m = 0.6km and time =5min = 1/12 hour by formula Speed = distance/time => Speed = 0.6/(1/12) km/hour => Speed = 0.6×12 km/hour => Speed = 7.2km/hour Thus option B is correct

If a boy takes as much time in running 10 m as a car takes in covering 25 m, the distance covered by the boy during the time the car covers 1 km is

    400 m
  • b)
    40 m
  • c)
    250 m
  • d)
    650 m
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Shanaya Sharma answered
Let in t time , boy covers 10m and car covers 25m.
for car , 1m distance is covered in t/25
Then , 1km is covered in = (t/25)*1000 = 40t

In t time , boy covers = 10m
So in 40t time , boy covers = 40*10=400m
Correct option is a) 400m

‘Them’ is the object, so it becomes the subject, ‘they’.
The subject, ‘she’, becomes the agent - ‘by her’.
The verb is ‘will … oppose’. The tense is future simple
So, ‘will they be opposed?’
Will they be opposed by her?

The human immune system is a complex network of cells, tissues, and organs that work together to defend the body against harmful pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, and parasites. It is an essential part of our body's defense mechanisms and plays a crucial role in maintaining overall health.

The immune system functions by recognizing and attacking foreign substances or antigens that enter the body. These antigens can be found on the surface of pathogens or on cells that have been infected by them. When the immune system detects an antigen, it triggers a cascade of events to eliminate the threat.

There are two main components of the immune system: the innate immune system and the adaptive immune system. The innate immune system is the body's first line of defense and provides immediate, non-specific protection against a wide range of pathogens. It includes physical barriers, such as the skin and mucous membranes, as well as various cells and proteins that can recognize and destroy foreign invaders.

The adaptive immune system, on the other hand, provides a more specific and targeted response to pathogens. It is characterized by the presence of specialized cells called lymphocytes, which can recognize and remember specific antigens. When a lymphocyte encounters an antigen it has previously encountered, it triggers a rapid and specific response to eliminate the threat.

The immune system also relies on a variety of other cells and proteins to carry out its functions. These include phagocytes, which engulf and destroy pathogens, as well as antibodies, which are proteins that can bind to specific antigens and mark them for destruction.

Overall, the immune system is a highly sophisticated and coordinated network that works tirelessly to protect the body from harmful pathogens. It is constantly adapting and evolving to recognize and eliminate new threats, and plays a crucial role in maintaining overall health and well-being.

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

Geeta jain answered
According to the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, 1969, the correct proposition is option 'B': The provisions of the treaty to which the reservation applies shall not apply between the reserving state and the objecting state unless the objecting state specifically objects to the entry into force of the treaty as between the two states.

Explanation:
The Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties is an international treaty that sets out the rules governing the formation, interpretation, and termination of treaties. It provides a framework for the rights and obligations of states in relation to treaties.

When a state makes a reservation to a treaty, it effectively modifies its obligations under that treaty. The reservation allows the state to exclude or modify the legal effect of certain provisions of the treaty in their application to that state. However, the reservation can only be made if it is not prohibited by the treaty and is not incompatible with the object and purpose of the treaty.

When a state objects to a reservation made by another state, it means that it disagrees with the reservation and does not consider it valid. The objection can be made if the reservation is considered to be incompatible with the object and purpose of the treaty.

According to the Vienna Convention, when a state makes a reservation to a treaty and another state objects to that reservation, the provisions of the treaty to which the reservation applies shall not apply between the reserving state and the objecting state unless the objecting state specifically objects to the entry into force of the treaty as between the two states.

In other words, the objection by the objecting state prevents the specific provisions of the treaty to which the reservation applies from being applicable between the two states. However, if the objecting state does not object to the entry into force of the treaty as between the two states, then the treaty provisions will apply to the reserving state and the objecting state.

This provision ensures that both the reserving state and the objecting state have a say in the application of the treaty provisions, while also safeguarding the object and purpose of the treaty. It allows for a balance between the rights and obligations of the states involved.

Prerna Sen answered
Let the total journey of man be x km.
Then A/Q, 
2/15 *x + 9/20*x + 10 = x
8x + 27x +600 / 60 = x
35x + 600 / 60 = x
5[7x + 120] / 60 = x
7x + 120/ 12 = x
7x + 120 = 12x 
12x - 7x = 120
5x = 120
x = 24

The Transformation of the Status of an Individual to Subject of International Law

The status of an individual as a subject of International Law has been a result of a long and gradual process. The first effort towards this transformation was made after the Second World War.

The aftermath of the Second World War led to the establishment of the United Nations, which was based on the principle of the sovereign equality of all its members. The UN Charter recognized the importance of protecting human rights and fundamental freedoms for all individuals, without discrimination based on race, gender, religion, or other factors.

Significance of the Second World War:

The Second World War was a significant event in the history of international relations as it resulted in the deaths of millions of people, including civilians. The atrocities committed during the war brought attention to the need for international law to protect individuals from acts of aggression and violations of their human rights.

Impact of the Second World War on International Law:

The Second World War led to the development of new principles of international law, which recognized the importance of protecting individuals from acts of aggression and violations of their human rights.

The Nuremberg Trials, which were held after the war, established the principle of individual criminal responsibility for acts of aggression and crimes against humanity. This principle was later incorporated into the International Criminal Court's Rome Statute.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the UN General Assembly in 1948, recognized the inherent dignity and inalienable rights of all individuals, regardless of their nationality, race, or religion. This declaration led to the development of international human rights law, which has become an integral part of contemporary international law.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, the Second World War was a turning point in the history of international law as it led to the recognition of the importance of protecting individuals from acts of aggression and violations of their human rights. The establishment of the UN and the development of new principles of international law paved the way for the transformation of the status of an individual from the object to the subject of international law.
