Abhiram Mehra answered |
The given pair of numbers, 7.25 and 7.75, are related by a difference of 0.5. To find the related number in the second pair, we need to find a number that is also related by a difference of 0.5.
Solution:
We can find the related number by adding 0.5 to 9, since the difference between 7.25 and 7.75 is 0.5.
Therefore, the related number in the second pair is:
9 + 0.5 = 9.5
Hence, the correct option is (A) 9.5.

Arnav Saini answered |
The correct answer is option 'B': the force of friction between two surfaces will increase if the two surfaces are pressed harder.
Explanation:
The force of friction is the force that opposes the relative motion or tendency of motion between two surfaces in contact. It is caused by the interaction of microscopic irregularities on the surfaces. Several factors can affect the force of friction between two surfaces, including the normal force, the nature of the surfaces, and the presence of any lubricants or air gaps.
- Normal force: The normal force is the force exerted by a surface that is perpendicular to the surface. It is the force that prevents objects from passing through each other. The force of friction is directly proportional to the normal force. Therefore, if the two surfaces are pressed harder against each other, the normal force increases, and as a result, the force of friction also increases.
- Nature of the surfaces: The force of friction also depends on the nature of the surfaces in contact. If the surfaces have a rough texture or irregularities, the force of friction will be higher compared to smooth surfaces. This is because the irregularities create more points of contact between the surfaces, increasing the frictional force.
- Presence of lubricants: Lubricants are substances that reduce friction between two surfaces. They create a thin layer between the surfaces, minimizing the contact points and allowing smoother relative motion. Therefore, if a layer of lubricant is kept between the two surfaces, the force of friction will decrease.
- Presence of air gap: An air gap between two surfaces reduces the force of friction because air is a fluid and has lower viscosity compared to solids. The presence of air allows for easier relative motion between the surfaces, reducing the frictional force.
In summary, the force of friction between two surfaces will increase if the two surfaces are pressed harder. This is because the normal force, which is directly proportional to the force of friction, increases with greater pressure.

Arnav Saini answered |
Solution:
To make the sum completely divisible by 7, we need to add the least number to 329, which will make the sum a multiple of 7.
Let's find the remainder when 329 is divided by 7:
329 ÷ 7 = 47 R 0
This means that 329 is already a multiple of 7. Therefore, we do not need to add any number to make it completely divisible by 7.
Hence, the correct answer is option B, i.e., 0.

Prema Sakhi answered |
A's one day work =1/12
B's one day work =1/24
A and B together one day work = (1/12)+(1/24)=3/24=1/8
A and be together completes the work in 8 days
A and B together 4 days work = 4*(1/8)=1/2
therefore remaining work = 1(total work )-1/2 ( 4days work)=1/2
answer :-remaining work =1/2

Anjali Kapoor answered |
The law of reflection governs the reflection of light-rays off smooth conducting surfaces, such as polished metal or metal-coated glass mirrors.
Consider a light-ray incident on a plane mirror, The law of reflection states that the incident ray, the reflected ray, and the normal to the surface of the mirror all lie in the same plane. Furthermore, the angle of reflection $r$ is equal to the angle of incidence $i$. Both angles are measured with respect to the normal to the mirror.
The law of reflection also holds for non-plane mirrors, provided that the normal at any point on the mirror is understood to be the outward pointing normal to the local tangent plane of the mirror at that point. For rough surfaces, the law of reflection remains valid. It predicts that rays incident at slightly different points on the surface are reflected in completely different directions, because the normal to a rough surface varies in direction very strongly from point to point on the surface. This type of reflection is called diffuse reflection, and is what enables us to see non-shiny objects.

Vikram Mehta answered |
According to the question, 29th May is Monday
Number of days left in May = 31-29=2
Similarly, odd days from 29th May till 17th November = (2+30+31+31+30+31+17)%7
= 2+2+3+3+2+3+3=18
Now, dividing 18 by 7, remainder = 4
Thus, day on 17th November = Monday (+4) = Friday

Nilesh Banerjee answered |
To find the percentage of the wealth willed to the family, we first need to determine the percentage of the wealth willed to charity.
Let's assume the man's wealth is represented by the number 100.
The man wills 25% of his wealth to charity. This means that 25% of 100 is given to charity, which is 25.
To find the rest of the wealth that is willed to the family, we subtract the amount willed to charity from the total wealth.
100 - 25 = 75
Now we need to find the percentage of the wealth willed to the family.
To do this, we divide the amount willed to the family by the total wealth and multiply by 100.
(75 / 100) * 100 = 75%
Therefore, the family gets 75% of the wealth willed to charity.
However, the options given in the question are in percentage form, not decimal form. So, we need to convert 75% to the nearest option.
Option B is 33.3%. This is the closest option to 75%.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B) 33.3%.

(75 / 100) * 100 = 75%

Ishaan Roy answered |
The area of an equilateral triangle can be found using the formula:
Area = (sqrt(3)/4) * side^2
Given that the side of the equilateral triangle is 10 cm, we can substitute this value into the formula:
Area = (sqrt(3)/4) * 10^2
= (sqrt(3)/4) * 100
= (1.732/4) * 100
= 43.3
Therefore, the area of the equilateral triangle is approximately 43.3 sq cm.
Area = (sqrt(3)/4) * side^2
Given that the side of the equilateral triangle is 10 cm, we can substitute this value into the formula:
Area = (sqrt(3)/4) * 10^2
= (sqrt(3)/4) * 100
= (1.732/4) * 100
= 43.3
Therefore, the area of the equilateral triangle is approximately 43.3 sq cm.

**Given:**
The average weight of A, B, and C is 49 kg.
The average weight of A and B is 35 kg.
The average weight of B and C is 62 kg.
**To find:**
The weight of B.
**Solution:**
Let the weight of A be a kg, the weight of B be b kg, and the weight of C be c kg.
According to the given information:
The average weight of A and B is 35 kg, so (a + b)/2 = 35.
The average weight of B and C is 62 kg, so (b + c)/2 = 62.
The average weight of A, B, and C is 49 kg, so (a + b + c)/3 = 49.
**Simplifying the equations:**
From equation 1, we get a + b = 70.
From equation 2, we get b + c = 124.
From equation 3, we get a + b + c = 147.
**Substituting the values of a + b and a + b + c in equation 3:**
70 + c = 147.
c = 147 - 70.
c = 77 kg.
**Now, substituting the value of c in equation 2:**
b + 77 = 124.
b = 124 - 77.
b = 47 kg.
Therefore, the weight of B is 47 kg.
Hence, the correct answer is option A) 47 kg.
The average weight of A, B, and C is 49 kg.
The average weight of A and B is 35 kg.
The average weight of B and C is 62 kg.
**To find:**
The weight of B.
**Solution:**
Let the weight of A be a kg, the weight of B be b kg, and the weight of C be c kg.
According to the given information:
The average weight of A and B is 35 kg, so (a + b)/2 = 35.
The average weight of B and C is 62 kg, so (b + c)/2 = 62.
The average weight of A, B, and C is 49 kg, so (a + b + c)/3 = 49.
**Simplifying the equations:**
From equation 1, we get a + b = 70.
From equation 2, we get b + c = 124.
From equation 3, we get a + b + c = 147.
**Substituting the values of a + b and a + b + c in equation 3:**
70 + c = 147.
c = 147 - 70.
c = 77 kg.
**Now, substituting the value of c in equation 2:**
b + 77 = 124.
b = 124 - 77.
b = 47 kg.
Therefore, the weight of B is 47 kg.
Hence, the correct answer is option A) 47 kg.

Sagar Sharma answered |
Explanation:
When a machine is operated, energy in the form of heat is generated and wasted. This heat is primarily generated due to friction.
Friction:
Friction is the resistance encountered when two surfaces come into contact and move relative to each other. It is a fundamental force that opposes the motion of objects or substances in contact. Friction occurs at the microscopic level due to the irregularities present on the surfaces of objects.
Generation of Heat:
When two surfaces rub against each other, the friction between them causes the molecules in contact to vibrate and generate heat. This heat is a result of the conversion of mechanical energy into thermal energy.
Wasted Energy:
In any machine or mechanical system, not all the input energy is converted into useful work. Some portion of the input energy is always lost in the form of heat due to friction. This wasted energy reduces the overall efficiency of the machine.
Examples:
1. In a car engine, the friction between the moving parts such as pistons, cylinders, and bearings generates heat. This heat is wasted energy that needs to be dissipated through cooling systems.
2. When a person rubs their hands together, the friction between the palms generates heat. This heat is felt as warmth and is an example of wasted energy.
Therefore, the correct answer to the given question is option B) friction. Friction is the primary cause of heat generation and wastage in machines during operation.

Abhiram Mehra answered |
B) NRV is the correct answer.
Explanation:
To solve this question, we need to find the pattern between the letters in the given pairs.
In the first pair, DHL : AEI, we can observe the following pattern:
- The first letter of the first pair, D, is moved three places forward to get the first letter of the second pair, A.
- The second letter of the first pair, H, is moved three places forward to get the second letter of the second pair, E.
- The third letter of the first pair, L, is moved three places forward to get the third letter of the second pair, I.
Applying the same pattern to the letters in the second pair, QUY, we can find the related letters:
- The first letter, Q, when moved three places forward, becomes N.
- The second letter, U, when moved three places forward, becomes R.
- The third letter, Y, when moved three places forward, becomes V.
Therefore, the related letters for the pair QUY are NRV. Thus, option b) NRV is the correct answer.

Arnav Saini answered |
Given, the sum of four times a fraction and 7 times its reciprocal is 16. Let's assume the fraction to be x.
Hence, we can write the equation as:
4x + 7(1/x) = 16
Multiplying both sides by x, we get:
4x^2 + 7 = 16x
Bringing all the terms to one side, we get:
4x^2 - 16x + 7 = 0
Using the quadratic formula, we can solve for x:
x = [16 ± √(16^2 - 4(4)(7))]/(2(4))
x = [16 ± √(176)]/8
x = [16 ± 2√44]/8
x = 2 ± (√11)/2
Since the fraction cannot be negative, we take the positive value of x which is:
x = 2 + (√11)/2
Therefore, the fraction is 7/2 which is option B.
Hence, we can write the equation as:
4x + 7(1/x) = 16

4x^2 - 16x + 7 = 0

British Rule in Bengal and the Cultivators
During their rule, the British had a significant impact on the economy of Bengal. They introduced a variety of crops, which changed the agricultural landscape of the region. In this context, the question asks about the crop that the British persuaded or forced cultivators in Bengal to grow. The correct answer is option 'D', which is Wheat.
Introduction of Wheat Cultivation
The British started introducing wheat cultivation in Bengal in the early 19th century. The East India Company wanted to reduce the dependence on imported wheat from England, and hence, they encouraged the cultivation of wheat in India. Initially, wheat was grown in small quantities in some parts of Bengal, but its production increased steadily over time.
Forced Cultivation
The British used different methods to increase the production of wheat in Bengal. They provided incentives to the cultivators, such as tax exemptions and subsidies, to encourage them to grow wheat. However, they also used force in some cases. The British officials would confiscate the lands of the cultivators who refused to grow wheat and would give it to those who agreed to grow wheat.
Impact on Cultivators
The introduction of wheat cultivation had a mixed impact on the cultivators in Bengal. On the one hand, it provided a new source of income for them, as wheat was in high demand in the market. On the other hand, the cultivation of wheat required a lot of water and fertilizer, which increased the cost of cultivation. Moreover, the cultivators had to purchase new tools and equipment to grow wheat, which further added to their expenses.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the British introduced wheat cultivation in Bengal during their rule. They used both incentives and force to increase the production of wheat. The cultivation of wheat had a mixed impact on the cultivators, as it provided a new source of income but also increased their expenses.

Abhiram Mehra answered |
To find the least number that must be added to 213 so that the sum is completely divisible by 9, we need to first determine the remainder when 213 is divided by 9.
Finding the remainder:
To find the remainder, we divide 213 by 9:
213 ÷ 9 = 23 remainder 6
The remainder is 6, which means that 213 is 6 more than a multiple of 9.
Determining the least number to be added:
To make the sum completely divisible by 9, we need to add the smallest number possible that will bring the remainder to 0.
Since the remainder is 6, we need to add a number that will bring the remainder to 0 when divided by 9. The smallest number that can be added to 6 to make it a multiple of 9 is 3.
Adding 3 to 213:
213 + 3 = 216
Now, let's check if the sum 216 is divisible by 9:
216 ÷ 9 = 24
The sum 216 is completely divisible by 9, with no remainder.
Therefore, the least number that must be added to 213 so that the sum is completely divisible by 9 is 3.
Hence, the correct answer is option A) 3.
Finding the remainder:
To find the remainder, we divide 213 by 9:
213 ÷ 9 = 23 remainder 6
The remainder is 6, which means that 213 is 6 more than a multiple of 9.
Determining the least number to be added:
To make the sum completely divisible by 9, we need to add the smallest number possible that will bring the remainder to 0.
Since the remainder is 6, we need to add a number that will bring the remainder to 0 when divided by 9. The smallest number that can be added to 6 to make it a multiple of 9 is 3.
Adding 3 to 213:
213 + 3 = 216
Now, let's check if the sum 216 is divisible by 9:
216 ÷ 9 = 24
The sum 216 is completely divisible by 9, with no remainder.
Therefore, the least number that must be added to 213 so that the sum is completely divisible by 9 is 3.
Hence, the correct answer is option A) 3.

Who invented Velcro?
The correct answer is option 'C': George de Mestral.
Explanation:
George de Mestral, a Swiss engineer and inventor, is credited with inventing Velcro. He came up with the idea after observing burrs (small seed-bearing structures) sticking to his clothes and his dog's fur during a hiking trip in the Swiss Alps in 1941.
Development of Velcro:
After his hiking trip, de Mestral examined the burrs under a microscope and discovered that they had tiny hooks that allowed them to cling to fabric and fur. This observation led him to develop a fastening system based on the same principle.
De Mestral spent several years experimenting with different materials and refining his invention. He eventually settled on nylon as the base material for Velcro. Nylon was strong, durable, and had the necessary flexibility to create the hook and loop system.
How Velcro works:
Velcro consists of two components: hooks and loops. The hooks are small, stiff, and typically made of nylon, while the loops are softer and made of nylon as well. When the two components come into contact, the hooks latch onto the loops, creating a secure and temporary fastening.
Patent and Commercialization:
In 1955, de Mestral filed a patent for his invention, which he named Velcro. The word "Velcro" is a combination of the French words "velours" (meaning velvet) and "crochet" (meaning hook). The patent described the hook and loop fastening system and its various applications.
Velcro quickly gained popularity and was used in a wide range of industries, including clothing, footwear, aerospace, and automotive. It revolutionized the way garments and other products were fastened, replacing buttons, zippers, and laces in many cases.
Legacy:
George de Mestral's invention of Velcro has had a lasting impact on numerous industries and everyday life. It has provided a simple and efficient solution for fastening and securing objects. Velcro is now a widely recognized brand and its name is often used generically to refer to any hook and loop fastening system.
In conclusion, George de Mestral, a Swiss engineer, invented Velcro after being inspired by the way burrs stuck to fabric and fur. His development of the hook and loop fastening system revolutionized the way objects are fastened and secured. Velcro has become an integral part of our daily lives and continues to be used in various industries worldwide.

Given:
A can complete the work in 15 days.
B can complete the work in 30 days.
Let's assume the total work to be done is 100 units.
A's work rate:
A can complete 100 units of work in 15 days.
So, A's work rate = 100 units / 15 days = 6.67 units/day.
B's work rate:
B can complete 100 units of work in 30 days.
So, B's work rate = 100 units / 30 days = 3.33 units/day.
Working together:
When A and B work together, their combined work rate is the sum of their individual work rates.
Combined work rate = A's work rate + B's work rate = 6.67 units/day + 3.33 units/day = 10 units/day.
To find the number of days required to complete 50% of the work, we can use the formula:
Number of days = Total work / Combined work rate.
Number of days = 50 units / 10 units/day = 5 days.
Hence, the correct answer is option A) 5.
A can complete the work in 15 days.
B can complete the work in 30 days.
Let's assume the total work to be done is 100 units.
A's work rate:
A can complete 100 units of work in 15 days.
So, A's work rate = 100 units / 15 days = 6.67 units/day.
B's work rate:
B can complete 100 units of work in 30 days.
So, B's work rate = 100 units / 30 days = 3.33 units/day.
Working together:
When A and B work together, their combined work rate is the sum of their individual work rates.
Combined work rate = A's work rate + B's work rate = 6.67 units/day + 3.33 units/day = 10 units/day.
To find the number of days required to complete 50% of the work, we can use the formula:
Number of days = Total work / Combined work rate.
Number of days = 50 units / 10 units/day = 5 days.
Hence, the correct answer is option A) 5.

Let time = x
15x - 9x = 3
x = 0.5hr
distance = 9x = 9(0.5) = 4.5km
So the answer is option C.
