Concept:

Potential difference or voltage (V) is given by

Where,

W = Energy in joule

Q = Charge in coulomb

Also 1 joule / sec = 1 Watt

Calculation

Potential difference = 1.5 V

Charge = 60 C

Energy required to move 60 C charge: 1.5 x 60 = 90 J

Given:

Breadth : Perimeter = 1 : 5

Perimeter = 60 cm

Formula used:

Area of rectangle = l × b

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)

Here, l = length and b = breadth

Calcualtion:

Breadth : Perimeter = 1 : 5

⇒ b/2(l + b) = 1/5

⇒ 5b = 2l + 2b

⇒ 3b = 2l

⇒ b = 2l/3      ----(1)

Now, Perimeter = 60

⇒ 2(l + b) = 60

⇒ l + b = 30      ----(2)

From eq (1) and eq (2)

l = 18 and b = 12

Area = 18 × 12 = 216 cm²

∴ The area of rectangle is 216 cm²

अन्य विकल्प

The correct answer is option 1) i.e. He said that London is the capital of the UK.
Key Points

• This is a sentence in Indirect speech. So it has two subjects.
• He is the first subject and it will be put in the first place.
• 'said' is the first verb and it will be put just after 'he'.
• 'That' is the conjunction and it will be put just after 'said'.
• London is the subject again and it will be put just after 'that'.
• 'Is' is helping verb . It will be put just after the subject.
• Capital of the UK  is the noun clause. It can't be separated and will be put together in the last.
• Thus the complete sentence is: He said that London is the capital of the UK.

Important Points
If the sentence seems to have two subjects and two verbs, it is the sentence in Indirect speech.

प्रमुख बिंदु

• दिए गए विकल्पों में से ‘मैंने अब तक जितने लोगों को सुना है, यह सबसे बढ़िया बोलने वाला है’ वाक्य का सही अनुवाद He is the most eloquent speaker I have ever heard है,

  • cardinal adjective -  denotes how many as one, two, three, four, etc.
  • reflexive pronoun-  words ending in -self or -selves that are used when the subject and the object of a sentence are the same.
  • possessive pronoun-  pronouns show that something belongs to someone. 
  • article-  words that define a noun as specific or unspecific.
• The given words i.e. 'yourself' and 'themselves' fall under the category of  reflexive pronouns as per the definitions given above.
• Hence the  2nd option  will be the correct choice.

Additional Information

दिए गए विकल्पों में ‘किशोर’ के लिए सही समानार्थी शब्द ‘तरुण’ है। ऐसा बालक जिसकी अवस्था अठारह वर्ष से कम हो उसे किशोर कहा जाता है। अतिरिक्त विकल्प असंगत हैं। अतः सही विकल्प ‘ तरुण ’ है।

विशेष:

तत्पुरुष यहाँ सही विकल्प है, अन्य विकल्प असंगत है। क्योंकि इस समास में उत्तरपद प्रधान होते है  तथा समास करने के उपरांत विभक्ति (कारक चिन्ह) का लोप होते है।
अत: सही विकल्प 1) तत्पुरुष समास होगा।

• Let's look at the steps for changing the sentence from  direct to indirect speech:
• As the reporting verb is in the past tense and direct speech is in the present continuous tense, we will take the following steps:-
  • The reporting verb 'said' is changed to 'asked' because 'Reporting verbs such as said/ said to changes to enquired, asked, or demanded'.
  • The conjunction  'that'  is not used because 'No conjunction is used, if a sentence in direct speech begins with a question (what/where/when) as the "question-word" itself acts as a joining clause'.
  • For Example:-
  • Direct: “Where do you live?”, asked the boy.
  • Indirect: The boy enquired where I lived.
  • The  present continuoustense (are going)  is changed to the  past continuous tense (was going)  in the direct speech.
  • The pronoun  'You'  is changed to  'I'  as the first person changes according to the subject.

The correct answer is ' Although '.

  Key Points

• In the given fill in blank Option 2 is the correct answer. 
• Although can be used to contrast ideas. Although is subordinating conjunction  used to connect a subordinate clause to the main clause, like after, as, before, if, since, that, even though, even if.
  • Example: Grace is an excellent athlete,  although  she injured her leg recently.
• Here, 'Grace is an excellent athlete' is the main idea and the contrast idea is 'she injured her leg recently'. Therefore, ' although ' is used. 
• Although: despite the fact that.
  • Example: He decided to go, although I begged him not to.
• By reading the above definition we can infer that the correct answer is 'Although'. 
  

Correct Sentence:Althoughthe A.C. was on, the room was not cool. 

  Additional Information

• The meaning of the other words given in the options as follows: 
  • Despite: (used before one fact that makes another fact surprising) despite. 
    • Example:  Despite  his injury, Ricardo will play in Saturday's match.
  • Whether: (used especially in reporting questions and expressing doubts) if, or not.
    • Example: I wasn't sure whether you'd like it.
  • In case: a particular situation or example of something.
    • Example: I wouldn't normally agree but I'll make an exception in this case.

  Confusion Points

The use of " despite of " is incorrect , because preposition 'of' is not used with 'despite'Hence option A is incorrect.

The correct answer is She said that she couldn't come to the party on Saturday.
Key Points

• The given sentence is in Direct Speech. As per the given question we have to change it into Indirect Speech. 
• The Process of Transformation as follows:
  • 'Said' will not change. Because the reporting verb does not have an object.
  • Comma and inverted comma will be added.
  • The conjunction ' that ' will be added.
  • 'I' will be changed into 'She'.
  • Based on the tense of the reporting verb, the tense of the verb in the reported speech would undergo a backshift. Hence, 'can't' will become 'could not'
• Therefore, the correct answer is Option 4.

Correct Answer: She said that she couldn't come to the party on Saturday.
Confusion Points
The indirect construction will contain the past tense verb'couldn't' as although the event is taking place in the future, the spoken words are of the past and require the change according to sentence transformation rules.
