Describe rocket propulsion. |
|
Answer» 1. Propulsion of rockets is based on the law of conservation of linear momentum as well as Newton’s III law of motion. 2. Rockets are filled with fuel (either liquid or solid) in the propellant tank. When the rocket is fired, this fuel is burnt and hot gas is ejected with high speed from the nozzle of the rocket, producing a huge momentum. 3. To balance this momentum, an equal and opposite reaction force is produced in the combustion chamber, which makes the rocket project forward. 4. While in motion, the mass of the rocket gradually decreases, until the fuel is completely burnt out. 5. Since there is no net external force acting on it, the linear momentum of the system is conserved. 6. The mass of the rocket decreases with altitude, which results in the gradual increase in the velocity of the rocket. 7. At one stage, it reaches a velocity, which is sufficient to just escape from the gravitational pull of the Earth. This velocity is called escape velocity. |

Show that the relation R in the set R of real numbers, defined as R = {(a, b) : a ≤ b2} is neither reflexive nor symmetric nor transitive. |
|
Answer» We have R = {(a,b) :a ≤ b2} , where a, b ∈ R For reflexivity, we observe that 1/2 ≤ (1/2)2 is not true. So, R is not reflexive as (1/2, 1/2) ∉ R For symmetry, we observe that − 1 ≤ 32 but 3 > (−1)2 ∴ (−1, 3) ∈ R but (3, −1) ∉R. So, R is not symmetric. For transitivity, we observe that 2 ≤ (−3)2 and −3 ≤ (1)2 but 2 > (1)2 ∴ (2, − 3) ∈ R and (−3,1) ∈ R but (2, 1) ∉ R. So, R is not transitive. Hence, R is neither reflexive, nor symmetric and nor transitive. |

|
Answer» I think you should solve this question by yourself. I'm giving you some simple tricks to find out whether the given equation perform SHM or not. Follow this : Any equation performing a simple harmonic motion has two properties that can be used to determine the nature.
An object is undergoing simple harmonic motion (SHM) if;
The simple harmonic differential equation is d2x/dt2=−ω2x a=-w2x Where x is the displacement from initial position, its double differentiation is acceleration and ω is the angular frequency. If the equation obeys this differential equation then you have a simple harmonic function.

Explain the position of lanthanoids in the periodic table. OR How is the position of lanthanoids justified? |
|
Answer» 1. Position of Lanthanoids in the periodic table : Group – 3; Period – 6. 2. They interrupt the third transition series of t/-block elements (i.e. 5 d series) in the sixth period. 3. They are 14 elements from 58Ce to 71Lu and their position is in between La and Hf. Since they follow lanthanum, they are called lanthanoids. 4. They are called 4f-series elements and for the convenience, they are placed separately below the main periodic table. 5. The actual position of lanthanoids is in between Lanthanum (Z = 57) and Hafnium (Z = 72). 6. Their position is justified due to following reasons :
