We know that area of triangle is equals to 1/2 base × altitude.
Here, base = 4 cm and altitude = 6 cm.
So, area = 1/2 × 4 × 6= 24 /2= 12 cm².

The ratio 35 : 84 in simplest form is:
To simplify the ratio 35 : 84, we need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 35 and 84, and then divide both numbers by this common divisor. Let's calculate:

GCD of 35 and 84 is 7.
Divide both numbers by 7: 35 ÷ 7 = 5, 84 ÷ 7 = 12.
So, the simplified ratio is 5 : 12, which corresponds to option (c).

Given:

Odd numbers from 1 to 100.

Formula used:

The sum of n of odd number = n²

Where, n = Number of terms

Number of terms = (First terms + Last terms)/2

Average = The sum of all number/(Total number)

Calculation:

The odd numbers between 1 to 100,

1 + 3 + 5 + ..........+ 99 

Number of terms = (First terms + Last terms)/2

⇒ n = (1 + 99)/2

⇒ n = 50

Hence, Option C is correct.

Using Rule 1 :
1st number × 2nd number = L.C. M. × H.C.F,
Required number

Hence, Option C is correct.

 Since, 5 and 8 are the remainders of 70 and 125, respectively. Thus, after subtracting these remainders from the numbers, we have the numbers 65 = (70-5),
117 = (125 – 8), which is divisible by the required number.
Now, required number = HCF of 65,117                                     [for the largest number]
For this, 117 = 65 × 1 + 52 [∵ dividend = divisior × quotient + remainder]
⇒ 65 = 52 × 1 + 13
⇒ 52 = 13 × 4 + 0
∴ HCF = 13 
Hence, 13 is the largest number which divides 70 and 125, leaving remainders 5 and 8.

Greatest 5-Digit number = 99999

LCM of 8 and 9,

8 = 2 × 2 × 2

9 = 3 × 3

LCM = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 = 72

Now, dividing 99999 by 72, we get

Quotient = 1388

Remainder = 63

So, the greatest 5-digit number divisible by 8 and 9 = 99999 - 63 = 99936

Required number = 99936 + 5 = 99941

√p is an irrational number because square root of every prime number is an irrational number.

• The heat is transferred in form of conduction, convection, and radiation. 
• Radiation is the mode of heat transfer that does not require a medium. It happens through infrared radiation. 
• The infrared radiations are electromagnetic waves having a frequency less than the visible spectrum. 
• The infrared radiation is emitted from every hot body. 
• Earth is heated by infrared radiations of the sun. The radiations are reflected back by the earth which is captured by greenhouse gases. 
• The greenhouse gases absorbers some amount of heat and keeps the earth warm. 

So the correct option is infrared radiation.

Additional Information

• The major Greenhouse gas is Carbon dioxide followed by methane, water vapor, and nitrous oxide. 
• UV rays have a frequency higher than violet and they help in the formation of Ozone. 
• The wavelength of different electromagnetic waves are given in the below diagram. 

Concept:

Energy:

• The energy possessed by an object is thus measured in terms of its capacity of doing work.
• The unit of energy is measured by joule (J).

Explanation:

Wood and animal dung:

• Animal manure and wood are two popular energy sources in Indian villages.
• It can be used to produce biogas.
• Biogas is a term used to describe a variety of gases that are created when organic matter breaks down in the absence of oxygen.
• Agricultural waste, manure, municipal trash, plant material, sewage, green waste, and food waste are some of the raw materials that can be used to make biogas.
• In some rural locations, biogas plants can be installed adjacent to homes as simple structures to provide a source of gas for cooking and lighting.

Thus, the common energy source in an Indian village is wood and animal dung.

Additional InformationElectricity:

• Electricity is one of the most commonly used forms of energy.
• The term electricity comes from the Greek word electron which means amber.
• It is converted from mechanical to electrical energy with the help of a prime mover i.e., from the turbine to the generator.

Coal:

• Coal is one of the fuels used to cook food.
• Earlier, it was used in railway engines to produce steam to run the engine.
• It is also used in thermal power plants to produce electricity.

Sun:

• Solar energy, one of the renewable sources of energy, is defined as the transformation of solar energy.

Key Points

• Water is called the "universal solvent" because it is capable of dissolving more substances than any other liquid.
• This is important to every living thing on earth.
• This allows the water molecule to become attracted to many other different types of molecules.
• Water has no definite shape.
• It is tasteless.
• It is odourless.
• It is colourless.
• Any colour present in water is due to the presence of dissolved or suspended impurities in it.
• Materials like air, water, and clear glass are called transparent.
• When light encounters transparent materials, almost all of it passes directly through them. 
• Pure water (solely hydrogen and oxygen atoms) has a neutral pH of 7, which is neither acidic nor basic.
• Water should be free from nitrogen organic matter.
• Density: 997 kg/m³
• Boiling point: 212°F (100°C)
• Molar mass: 18.01528 g/mol
• Melting point: 32°F (0°C)
• Formula: H2O
• IUPAC ID: Water, Oxidant

Thus, pure water is tasteless, odourless, colorless.

Concept:

​Noise pollution:

Noise pollution is generally defined as regular exposure to elevated sound levels that may lead to adverse effects in humans or other living organisms. According to the World Health Organization, sound levels less than 70 dB are not damaging to living organisms. Exposure for more than 8 hours to constant noise beyond 85 dB may be hazardous.

Sources of Noise Pollution:

1). Agricultural machine pollution:

Tractors, thrashers, harvesters, tube wells, powered tillers, etc. have all made agriculture highly mechanical but at the same time highly noisy. Noise level 90 dB to 98 dB due to the running of farm machines have been recorded in the state of Punjab.

2). Household pollution:

The household is an industry in itself and is a source of many indoor noises such as the banging of doors, noise of playing children, crying of infants, moving of furniture, the loud conversation of the inhabitants, etc. Besides these are the entertainment equipment in the house, namely the radio, record-players, and television sets. 

3). Transport pollution:

The automobile revolution in urban centers has proved to be a big source of noise pollution. Increasing traffic has given rise to traffic jams in congested areas where the repeated hooting of horns by impatient drivers pierce the ears of all road users. Heavy trucks, buses, trains, jet-planes, motor-cycles, scooters, mopeds, jeeps noise pollution, etc. are the cause of transport pollution.

4). Defense equipment pollution:

A lot of noise pollution is added to the atmosphere by artillery, tanks, launching of rockets, explosions, exercising of military airplanes, and shooting practices. Screams of jet engines and sonic booms have a deafening impact on the ears.

5). Industrial pollution:

Progress in technology or industrialization has resulted in creating noise pollu­tion. Textile mills, printing presses, engineering establishments, and metal works, etc. contribute heavily towards noise pollution. 

6). Miscellaneous Sources:

The automobile repair shops, construction-works, blasting, bulldozing, stone crushing, etc. are other sources of noise pollution.

The correct answer is Sulphur Cycle

Key Points

• The sulphur reservoir is in the soil and sediments where it is locked in organic (coal, oil and peat) and inorganic deposits (pyrite rock and sulphur rock) in the form of sulphates, sulphides and organic sulphur.
• It is released by weathering of rocks, erosional runoff and decomposition of organic matter and is carried to terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems in a salt solution.
• The sulphur cycle is mostly sedimentary except two of its compounds, hydrogen sulphide (H₂S) and sulphur dioxide (SO₂), which add a gaseous component.
• Sulphur enters the atmosphere from several sources like volcanic eruptions, combustion of fossil fuels (coal, diesel etc.), from the surface of the ocean and gases released by decomposition.
• Atmospheric sulphur dioxide is carried back to the earth after being dissolved in rainwater as weak sulphuric acid (acid rain).
• Sulphur bound in a living organism is carried back to the soil, to the bottom of ponds and lakes and seas through excretion and decomposition of dead organic material.
