Given:

The side of the square = 22 cm

Formula used:

The perimeter of the square = 4 × a (Where a = Side of the square)

The circumference of the circle = 2 × π × r (Where r = The radius of the circle)

Calculation:

Let us assume the radius of the circle be r

⇒ The perimeter of the square = 4 × 22 = 88 cm

⇒ The circumference of the circle = 2 × π × r

⇒ 88 = 2 × (22/7) × r

⇒ 

⇒ r = 14 cm

∴ The required result will be 14 cm.

From Statement I:

From this statement, we get the following ranking.

Person in the row = 8 persons + Akansha + 4 persons + Rhea + 7 persons + Harshita + 8 persons

So, we get that Rhea is 17th from the bottom in the class.

Clearly, Statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.

From Statement II:

From this statement, we get the following ranking.

Person in the row = 11 persons + Yamini + 13 persons + Rhea + 4 persons

So, we get that Rhea is 5th from the bottom in the class.

Clearly, Statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.

Clearly, Either Statement I or Statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.

Hence, option C is the correct answer.

The verb phrase after "were sometimes" should be in the -ing (present-participial/continuous) form to fit grammatically: e.g., "were sometimes barking...", "were sometimes crying...".

Option A: Barking up the wrong tree is in the -ing form and fits both grammatically and contextually; it means pursuing a mistaken or ineffective course of action.
Option B: Stirred up a hornet’s nest is not in the -ing form. "Were sometimes stirred up a hornet’s nest" is ungrammatical in this construction.
Option C: Upset someone’s applecart is also not in the required -ing form and so is grammatically unsuitable here.
Option D: Crying wolf is grammatically possible (has the -ing form) but contextually less appropriate because it means raising false alarms; the intended sense is that the scientists were sometimes pursuing mistaken lines of recommendation, which is best captured by option A.

Final answer: A

Robert Mugabe ruled Zimbabwe since its independence in 1980 until he was forced out of office in 2017.

P, Q, R, S, T, V, W, and Z are sitting around a circle facing at the centre not necessarily in this same order.

i) T is second to the right of R who is third to the right of P.

Mistake Points

Who is used for the second person in a connecting statement.

For example: 

T is second to the right of R who is third to the right of P.

Here, who is used for R and not for T.

ii) S is second to the left of P and fourth to the right of Q.

iii) V who is not an immediate neighbour of P. (This means V cannot sit immediate left or right of P).

iv) Z is third to the right of V 

Thus we can see Z sit second to the right of T.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

• Definition: Chit funds are informal savings schemes where a group of individuals come together to contribute a fixed amount of money periodically. This money is then given to one member of the group in a rotating manner.

Concept:

The direct consequences of man-​made climate change include:

• Rising maximum and minimum temperatures.
• Rising sea levels 
• Higher ocean temperatures 
• An increase in heavy precipitation (heavy rain and hail)
• Shrinking glaciers
• Thawing permafrost

The indirect consequences of climate change, which directly affect us humans and our environment, include: 

• An increase in hunger and water crises, especially in developing countries.
• Health risks through rising air temperatures and heatwaves. 
• Economic implications of dealing with secondary damage related to climate change 
• Increasing spread of pests and pathogens
• Loss of biodiversity due to limited adaptability and adaptability speed of flora and fauna  
• Ocean acidification due to increased HCO₃ concentrations in the water as a consequence of increased CO₂ concentrations.

So Ozone layer depletion is not an effect of climate change.

Let us first learn the meanings of the given words:

Span (verb): extend across.

Extend (verb): cause to cover a wider area or make larger.

Vary (verb): differ in size, amount, degree, or nature from something else of the same general class.

Range (verb): extend between specified limits.

The idea here is to express that there was a huge range of reasons why the protests in China had started. Grammatically only a verb in ‘-ing’ form will fit the blank, this eliminates ‘span’, ‘extended’ and ‘vary’. Now, between ‘scoping’ and ‘ranging’, ‘ranging’ is a better option to be placed before ‘from’.

Hence, option d is correct.

Use of Alum:

• Alum, also known as aluminium sulfate (Al₂(SO₄)₃.18H₂O) is added to water in order to help in the sedimentation of suspended impurities.
• Alum is a universal coagulant.
• It destabilizes the mud particles suspended in it through the process known as coagulation. 
• Alum when added to water attaches to the suspended particles and increases their size forming a floc.
• This floc is due to an increase in size and weight settling at the bottom of the container.
• These are removed by pouring out the clean water layer formed at the top.

Thus, Rekha's mother adds Phitkari (Alum) to water collected from the pond every day in order to sediment light-suspended impurities.

• Soft water is surface water that contains low dissolved minerals.
• Alum does not kill germs, in general, bleaching powder is used to kill germs in the water.
• Alum does not decolourize water.
