Answer: A. Ashoka wanted to control both the land and sea routes to south India, and any hostile power obstructing the route would have had to be conquered.

Explanation:
- The Kalinga war took place in 261 BCE when the Mauryan Emperor Ashoka invaded the kingdom of Kalinga, which lay along the eastern coast of India.
- There were multiple factors that contributed to the war, but the primary reason was Ashoka's ambition to control both the land and sea routes to south India.
- South India was a major source of wealth and resources for trade, and controlling these routes would enhance the prosperity and power of the Mauryan empire.
- Kalinga was a strategically important region as it lay between the Mauryan Empire and the southern kingdoms, and its control would ensure uninterrupted access to these trade routes.
- The hostile power of Kalinga obstructing the route made it necessary for Ashoka to conquer the region in order to secure the trade routes and further expand the Mauryan empire.
- Although other factors such as Kalinga's growing power, the piracy by the Nagas, and its potential threat to the Mauryan empire might have played a role, the primary cause of the war was Ashoka's ambition to control the land and sea routes to south India.

The Earth is the densest of all planets in the Solar System.  The predominant element in the composition of the Earth is Iron (36 %) and in the Earth’s crust is oxygen (45 %).  The Sun contains 99 % of the mass of the solar system.  The diameter of the sun is 109 times that of the Earth.

The troposphere is a layer of the Earth's atmosphere, not a part of the Earth's interior.

Latitudes are lines that run east-west around the Earth and are used to measure distances north or south of the Equator.

Surface waves cause the most significant damage during an earthquake as they travel along the Earth's surface, resulting in strong shaking.

• Sediment maturity refers to the length of time that the sediment has become in the sedimentary cycle.

• Texturally mature sediment is sediment that is well rounded (as rounding increases with transport distance and time) and well sorted (as sorting gets better as larger clasts are left behind and smaller clasts arc carried away).

• If the fragments arc angular, it indicates that they have not been transported very far and the sediment is poorly sorted.

The Tapti river does not have any major multipurpose river valley project associated with it.

• Guru Shikhar, a peak in the Arbuda Mountains of Rajasthan, is the highest point of the Aravali Range. It rises to an elevation of 1,722 metres.

• Doddabetta is the highest mountain in the Nilgiri Hills at 2,637 metres. There is a reserved forest area around the peak. It is 9 km from Ooty, on the Ooty-Kotagiri Road in the Nilgiris district of Tamil Nadu, India.

• Anamudi or AnaiMudi is a mountain located in the Indian state of Kerala. It is the highest peak in the Western Ghats and South India, at an elevation of 2,695 metres, and a topographic prominence of 2,479 metres.

• Mount Dhupgarh or Dhoopgarh is the highest point in the Satpura Range and Madhya Pradesh, India. Located in Pachmarhi, it has an elevation of 1,350 metres.

• It was in the news due to Nepalese constitution issues.

• The Northern plains can be divided into four regions - two are discussed here.

• After descending from the mountains, the rivers deposit pebbles in a narrow belt of about 8 to 16km in width lying parallel to the slopes of the Shivalik. It is known as bhabar.

• All the streams disappear in this bhabar belt. South of this belt, the streams and rivers re-emerge and create a wet, swampy and marshy region known as terai. This was a thickly forested region full of wildlife. The forests have been cleared to create agricultural land and to settle migrants from Pakistan after partition.

For Age according to question
P is eldest in the group.
R is not eldest in the group.
Q is elder than S but he is not elder than P or R.
Decreasing order ( age wise )
P > R > Q > S

For Money according to question
P is not the poorest.
R is the riches.
P is richer than Q but he is not richer than S
Decreasing order ( money wise )
R > S > P > Q

So Option B is correct

From positions X and Y we conclude that 1, 5, 6 and 3 lie adjacent to 4. Therefore, 2 must lie opposite 4. From positions Y and Z we conclude that 4, 3, 2 and 5 lie adjacent to 6. Therefore, 1 must lie opposite 6. Thus, 2 lies opposite 4, 1 lies opposite 6 and consequently 5 lies opposite 3.

As analysed above, the number opposite 6 is 1 and the number opposite 5 is 3. Therefore, the numbers hidden behind the numbers 6 and 5 in position Z (these are the numbers opposite 5 and 6 respectively) are 1 and 3.

The figure may be labelled as shown.

The simplest triangles are AFJ, FJK, FKB, BKG, JKG, JGC, HJC, HIJ, DIH, DEI, EIJ and AEJ i.e. 12 in number.

The triangles composed of two components each are JFB, FBG, BJG, JFG, DEJ, EJH, DJH and DEH i.e. 8 in number.

The triangles composed of three components each are AJB, JBC, DJC and ADJ i.e. 4 in number.

The triangles composed of six components each are DAB, ABC, BCD and ADC i.e. 4 in number.

Thus, there are 12 + 8 + 4 + 4 = 28 triangles in the figure.

Given : A + B = C + D

⇒ A - D = C - B ----- (i)

Also, it is given that A + D > B + C ----- (ii)

Subtracting (i) from (ii), we get :

D > B

Therefore, B > D is definitely wrong.

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.

To solve the inequality 6x - 7 > 5, we need to isolate x on one side of the inequality sign. Here are the steps:
1. Add 7 to both sides of the inequality:
6x - 7 + 7 > 5 + 7
6x > 12
2. Divide both sides of the inequality by 6:
6x/6 > 12/6
x > 2
Therefore, the solution to the inequality 6x - 7 > 5 is x > 2. This means that x is greater than 2. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is D: x > 2

A - 1 = Z

The boy rode 2 km. Northward.

As Microphone makes sound louder similarly Microscope makes the object magnified.

(12)² - (8)² = 80

and (16)² - (7)² = 207

Therefore (25)² - (21)² = 184.

Nalni is the daughter of the only son of Gopi's grandfather. Hence, it's clear that Nalni is the sister of Gopi.
