|
Answer» M = \(\begin{bmatrix}a & -360 \\b & c \\\end{bmatrix}\) M2 = \(\begin{bmatrix} a & -360 \\ b & c \\ \end{bmatrix}\) \(\begin{bmatrix} a & -360 \\ b & c \\ \end{bmatrix}\) = \(\begin{bmatrix} a^2&-360 b \,\,\,-360(a+c)\\ b(a+c) &\,\, c^2 -360\,b\end{bmatrix}\) -360 (a+c) = 0 ⇒ a = -c a2 - 360 b = 0 ⇒ b = \(\frac{a^2}{360}\) a,b,c are integer so , for smallest positive value of b , we have a = 1 or a = -1 ∴ b = 1/360 is smallest positive value of b where o2 is null matrix . only needed condition is c = -a |

Discuss the definition of Political science. |
|
Answer» Political science is that branch of the social sciences that studies the state, politics, and government. Political Science deals extensively with the analysis of political systems, the theoretical and practical applications to politics, and the examination of political behavior. The Greek thinker, Aristotle, defined political science as the study of the state. Many political scientists view themselves as being engaged in fleshing out the connections between political events and conditions, and by this understanding they hope to construct a system of general principles that posit the way the world of politics works. Political science is not a standalone field and it intersects many other branches like sociology, economics, history, anthropology, public policy among others. Political scientists are much sought after these days because of the changing landscape of politics across the world and since the society wants to understand how the political world works, they need someone to explain the nuances of the political economy. Any casual perusal of the newspapers and the television channels reveals that political scientists are at the forefront of debates and discussions for their knowledge and expertise. |

A block of mass `1kg `is placed on a rough horizontal surface. A spring is attached to the block whose other end is joined to a rigid wall, as shown in the figure. A horizontal force is applied on the block so that it remains at rest while the spring is elongated by `x(xge(mumg)/(k))`. Let `F_(max)` and `F_(mi n)` be the maximum and minimum values of force `F` for which the block remains in equilibrium. For a particular `x, F_(max)-F_(mi n)=2N`. Also shown is the variation of `F_(max)+F_(mi n)` versus `x`, the elongation of the spring. The spring constant of the spring is `:`A. `25N//m`B. `20N//m`C. `2.5N//m`D. `50N//m` |
