Given Statement -

'Swachchh Bharat Mission' is an important initiative of the Govt. of India.

Assumption I: Aims to provide universal sanitation coverage and access to safe sanitisation in India - As the name suggests this is a strong assumption as to why the initiative has been launched and why it is considered as important.

Assumption II: Aims to promote and provide clean toilets to each and every household in India - It is a strong assumption for the initiative to be considered as an important initiative.

As per the given information;

Thus, Kritika is in the East direction.

The pattern followed here is:

F + 2 = H; H + 3 = K; K + 4 = O; O + 5 = T

5 + 2 = 7; 7 + 2 = 9; 9 + 2 = 11; 11 + 2 = 13

So, T13 is the correct answer.

Total emissions of CO₂ in 2005 = 500 + 200 + 150 + 80+ 100 = 1030
Total emissions of CO₂ in 2009 = 800 +450 + 320+200+180= 1950
Percentage growth = 
% increased = 

Percentage Growth: =

Power: 

Industry:

Agriculture: 

Domestic: 

So, the maximum growth in CO₂ is Agriculture.

Given,

Total score obtained by Class A = 40 + 60 + 44 + 56 = 200

⇒ Total score obtained by Class B = 56 + 55 + 72 + 60 = 243

⇒ Difference in Score = 243 – 200 = 43

∴ The difference between the total score obtained by Class A and Class B is 43.

Given,

Average = Sum of observations/Number of observations

Total Score obtained by Class A in all Subjects = 40 + 60 + 44 + 56 = 200.

⇒ Total Number of Subjects is 4.

⇒ Average = 200/4
∴ 50
The Average Score obtained by Class A = 50.

Total number of seats in B.Com. and B.A = 300 + 500 = 800

The number of vacant seats in college I for B.Com. and B.A = Total - Seat filled = 19 + 14 = 33 or 800 - (281 + 486) = 33

The number of vacant seats in college II for B.Com. and B.A = 85 + 86 = 171

The number of vacant seats in college III for B.Com. and B.A = 9 + 16 = 25

The number of vacant seats in college IV for B.Com. and B.A = 101 + 71 = 172

The number of vacant seats in college V for B.Com. and B.A = 24 + 88 = 112

∴ The highest number of vacant seats in B.Com. and B.A. discipline was in college IV.

Lowest admission in BSc was in college IV i.e., 290 out of total 400 seats.

⇒ The percentage of students admitted in BSc. = × 100 ≈ 72%

Highest admission in B.A was in college I i.e., 486 out of total 500 seats.

⇒ The percentage of students admitted in B.A. = × 100 ≈ 97%

∴ Approximate difference = 97 - 72 = 25%

Total work = LCM of (15 and 20) = 60 units

Work completed by A in one day = = 4 units

Work completed by B in one day = = 3 units

Quantity I:

When A starts working from the first day then on second day B works

Total work they completed in two days = 4 + 3 = 7 units

56 units of work are completed in 16 days

Remaining work = 60 – 56 = 4 units

Now, these 4 units of work are completed by A in one day

Total 17 days are required to complete the work when A start working from the first day

Quantity II:

When B starts working from the first day then on second day A works

Total work they completed in two days = 3 + 4 = 7 units

56 units of work are completed in 16 days

Remaining work = 60 – 56 = 4 units

B will 3 units of work in a day.

Now, 1 unit work is completed by A in days

Total time taken = 17 + = days

∴ Quantity I < Quantity II

Given:

Using componendo & dividendo

⇒ cosec² θ = 6

We know that,

1 + cot² θ = cosec² θ

cot² θ = 6 - 1 = 5

Given,
Length of chord (CB) = 66cm
Height of segment = 10cm
Perpendicular drawn from the centre bisects the chord.
Pythagoras theorem → Hypotenuse² =  Perpendicular² + Base²

Draw a perpendicular from the centre (OA) to the chord CB CA = AB = 66/2 = 33 cm
Pythagoras theorem in Δ O AB
OB² = OA² + AB² 
R² = (R − 10)² + 33² 
⇒ R² = R² + 100 − 20R + 1089
⇒ 20 R = 1089 + 100
⇒ R = 118/ 20
⇒ R = 59.45 cm
∴ Radius of the circle is 59.45 cm

Given:

A starts the business with Rs. 24000, B join in after a certain number of months with a capital of Rs. 32000.

At the end of the year the profit ratio = 3 ∶ 2

The ratio of profit-sharing between A and B = (Investment by A × Time period) ∶ (Investment by B × Time period)

Suppose B was in the business for ‘x’ months.

According to the question,

⇒ (24000 × 12) ∶ (32000 × x) = 3 ∶ 2

⇒ 16x = 96

⇒ x = 6

B invests only for 6 months

∴ B joined the business after 6 months.

Let the required time = t years

Interest is compounded half-yearly

t = 2t half years and rate = 20/2 = 10% 

We Know that:

⇒ 2t = 3
∴t = 3/2 years

Pipe A fills in one minute = 1/15
Pipe B fills in one minute = 1/20
Part filled in 4 minutes by both the pipes = 4 (1/15 + 1/20) = 7/15
Remaining part = 1 - 7/15 = 8/15
Time taken to fill the remaining part by B =  minutes
Total time taken to fill the whole tank = minutes = 14 minutes 40 seconds

An equinox is an event in which a planet’s subsolar point passes through its Equator. The equinoxes are the only time when both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres experience roughly equal amounts of daytime and nighttime.

• There are two equinoxes every year: one around March 21 and another around September 23.
• Sometimes, the equinoxes are nicknamed the “vernal equinox” (spring equinox) and the “autumnal equinox” (fall equinox).
• During the equinoxes, solar declination is 0°. Solar declination describes the latitude of the Earth where the sun is directly overhead at noon. 
• The subsolar point is an area where the sun's rays shine perpendicular to the Earth's surface at a right angle.
• Only during equinox is the Earth's 23.5° axis not tilting toward or away from the sun: the perceived center of the Sun’s disk is in the same plane as the Equator. 

Only 1 and 3 statements are correct about Lysosome.

Lysosomes is called the “suicidal bags” of the cell. It is also known as the perinuclear dense bodies. The lysosomal membrane is rich in Sialic acid. They are absent in Erythrocytes. They are acidic in nature due to the presence of anabolic enzymes. Acid phosphatase (Enzyme) is used as a marker for the lysosomes. Sucrose density gradient centrifugation is used in the isolation of Liposomal fractions.

Tornadoes, known as the most violent atmospheric calamity, in some sense are the enfant terrible of the cyclones: they cannot develop without powerful tower-like cumulonimbus clouds formed either in a tropical cyclone or on a cold front in an extra tropical cyclone.

A tornado is a violently rotating column of air extending from a thunderstorm to the ground.

The correct chronological order will be (ii), (iv), (i), (iii).
