Madhurima Tiwari answered |
Enriched uranium is one in which the percentage of 235U has been artificially increased.
Explanation:
Enriched uranium refers to a type of uranium in which the percentage of the isotope uranium-235 (235U) has been artificially increased. Uranium occurs naturally in the Earth's crust and is composed of three isotopes: uranium-238 (238U), uranium-235 (235U), and uranium-234 (234U). These isotopes have slightly different atomic masses due to variations in the number of neutrons in their nuclei.
Why is uranium enrichment necessary?
Uranium enrichment is necessary for several applications, including nuclear power generation and the production of nuclear weapons. Natural uranium as found in nature typically contains only about 0.7% uranium-235, while the majority is uranium-238. In order to use uranium as fuel in nuclear reactors or to create weapons-grade material, it is necessary to increase the concentration of uranium-235 through a process called enrichment.
The Uranium Enrichment Process:
The process of uranium enrichment involves increasing the concentration of uranium-235 by separating it from uranium-238. There are various methods of enrichment, but the most common one is centrifuge enrichment.
Centrifuge Enrichment:
In centrifuge enrichment, uranium hexafluoride (UF6) gas is fed into a series of high-speed centrifuges. These centrifuges spin at extremely high speeds, causing the heavier uranium-238 to migrate towards the outer edge while the lighter uranium-235 collects near the center. This separation is based on the slight difference in mass between the two isotopes.
Gradual Increase in Uranium-235 Concentration:
Through multiple stages of centrifuge enrichment, the concentration of uranium-235 can be gradually increased. The enriched uranium produced through this process is then used as fuel in nuclear power plants or can be further processed for military purposes.
Conclusion:
Enriched uranium is a type of uranium in which the percentage of uranium-235 has been artificially increased. This is achieved through a process called uranium enrichment, where the heavier uranium-238 is separated from the lighter uranium-235. Enriched uranium is used in various applications, including nuclear power generation and the production of nuclear weapons.

GSLV Mk-3 is the latest version of GSLV. It can carry up to 4500 to 5000 kg satellites. Until now, India relied on EU’s Arianespace launch vehicle to send those INSAT-4 satellites. It will consist of 3 stages. 1st stage will have solid propellant, 2nd stage will have liquid propellant and 3rd stage will be cryogenic engine. GSLV MK-3 will make ISRO a competitive player in commercial launches of foreign satellites.

Debolina Yadav answered |
Explanation:
1. Each missile capable of carrying multiple warheads:
- MIRVs are designed to carry multiple independently targetable re-entry vehicles (MIRVs), which means that each missile can carry 2-10 separate nuclear warheads.
- This capability allows a single missile to target multiple locations or to overwhelm a missile defense system by releasing multiple warheads.
2. Warheads can be assigned to different targets:
- One of the key features of MIRVs is that each warhead can be assigned to a different target.
- This increases the flexibility and effectiveness of the missile system, as it can strike multiple targets simultaneously.
3. Multiple warheads can be assigned to the same target:
- While each warhead can be assigned to a different target, it is also possible for two or more warheads to be assigned to the same target.
- This redundancy ensures a higher probability of successful target destruction, even in the face of potential missile defense systems.
Therefore, all three statements are correct, making option 'D' the correct answer.

An orbiting satellite is a projectile, that the only force acting upon an oribiting satellite is the force of gravity. The force of gravity also accelerates it towards the earth. But the earth's round shape prevents it to fall on ground and if the satellite is in more than 8000 m/s speed it also contributes to the maintenance of motion in a particular orbit or elliptical path.

A ‘Ramjet’ is also referred to as a flying ‘stovepipe’ or an athodyd. Ramjets are frequently confused with pulsejets, which use an intermittent combustion but Ramjets employ a continuous combustion process. They can not produce thrust at zero airspeed. They are also confused with ‘Scramjets’, which are a similar system designed for higher speeds, using supersonic flow.

Explanation:
Hayabusa is an unmanned spacecraft developed by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA). It was launched in 2003 and reached the Itokawa asteroid in 2005. The spacecraft landed on the asteroid and collected samples in the form of tiny grains of asteroidal material.
Therefore, both statements 1 and 2 are true.
Hayabusa Mission Details:
Hayabusa was launched on May 9, 2003, from the Uchinoura Space Center in Japan. The spacecraft traveled for two years to reach its destination, the Itokawa asteroid.
The spacecraft was equipped with a small lander named MINERVA, which was designed to hop around the asteroid's surface and take pictures. However, due to a malfunction, MINERVA was not able to operate as planned, and the spacecraft had to rely on its sampling mechanism to collect the asteroidal material.
The spacecraft landed on the asteroid's surface twice, once to collect the samples and a second time to take additional measurements. Hayabusa collected approximately 1,500 grains of asteroidal material, which were returned to Earth in 2010.
The Hayabusa mission was significant because it was the first time that a spacecraft had been able to collect samples from an asteroid and return them to Earth. The mission allowed scientists to study the composition of the asteroid and gain insights into the formation of the solar system.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, the Hayabusa mission was a significant achievement for JAXA and the scientific community. The spacecraft was able to land on an asteroid, collect samples of asteroidal material, and return them to Earth. The mission provided valuable insights into the formation of the solar system and helped to advance our understanding of the universe.

Nirbhay is a long range, subsonic cruise missile being developed in India by Defence Research and Development Organisation. The missile has a good loitering capability i.e., it can go round a target and perform several manoeuvres and then re-engage it. Its first trial on 12 March 2013 from Chandipur, Odisha was failed. Brahmos is a supersonic cruise missile, while ‘Lakshya’ is an Indian pilot-less target drone system. Nirbhy’s technology is not inspired by it. It is a “tree–top” missile because it can flyover or around hills, can fly at a very low altitude and avoid detection.

Both the statements regarding Indian Polar Research stations are incorrect. India's first expedition to Antarctica was in 1981, she expanded it by undertaking its first Arctic expedition in August 2007 by setting up 'Himadri' at Nye–Alesund in Norway in 2008 to mark the International Polar Year (IPY). The first Antarctic research station was Gangotri (1983) and second was Maitri (1989). 'Bharti' or 'Bharthi' is the third Antarctic station at Larsemann in East Antarctica.

Kiran Sarkar answered |
The Kessler syndrome (also called the Kessler effect, proposed by the NASA scientist Donald J. Kessler in 1978, is a scenario in which the density of objects in low Earth orbit (LEO) is high enough that collisions between objects could cause a cascade—each collision generating space debris which increases the likelihood of further collisions. One implication is that the distribution of debris in orbit could render space exploration, and even the use of satellites, unfeasible for many generations.

2. Under the Act, the army has been deployed to assist the civil administration in the state.
- This statement is partially correct. While the army is deployed under the act, their role is not limited to assisting the civil administration. They are granted special powers to maintain public order, including the power to use force, arrest without warrant, and even shoot to kill in certain situations.
3. Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) was passed in 1958 by the Parliament of India.
- This statement is correct. AFSPA was passed by the Parliament of India in 1958. It was initially implemented in the Northeastern states and then extended to Jammu and Kashmir in 1990.
In conclusion, statements 1, 2, and 3 are all correct.
