While studying the reflection of light by spherical mirrors and the formation of images by spherical mirrors, a set of sign conventions are needed to learn that is required to measure the focal length, a distance of object or image from the mirror, and the magnification of the mirror.

Charging a body is done by changing the number of negative charge carriers. Electrons, with mass 9.11 × 10^-31 Kg, can be added to a body to increase its negative charge over positive charge and thus making it negatively charged. This very tiny mass is negligible for much of study purposes. But, most accurately, this still can be considered as a change in mass of a charged body with respect to the same body in the neutral state.

Correct option: a. clay and gum

Given:

Distance traveled by car = 105 km.

Time taken by car = 3 hours

Distance traveled by train = 252 km.

Time taken by train = 4 hours

Formula Used:

Speed = Distance/Time

Calculation:

Speed of car = 105/3 = 35 km/h

Speed of train = 252/4 = 63 km/h

The ratio of the speed of the car to speed of train,

\(\frac{{{\rm{Speed\;of\;car}}}}{{{\rm{speed\;of\;train}}}} = \frac{{35}}{{63}} = \frac{5}{9}\)

∴ The ratio of the speed of the car to speed of the train is 5 : 9

Given:

Speed while going (S1) = 100 km/hr

Speed while returning (S2) = 80 km/hr

Formula used:

Average speed = 2S₁S₂/(S₁ + S₂)

Calculation:

Average speed =  \(\frac{{2 \times 100\times 80}}{{100 + 80}}\)  

⇒ 16000 / 180

⇒  \(88\frac{8}{9}\)

∴ The average speed of the man during the whole journey is \(88\frac{8}{9}\) km/hr

Given:

Distance covered by motorcycle = 60 km

Speed of motorcycle = 15 km/h

Distance covered by car = 48 km

Speed of car = 12 km/h

Formula Used:

Average Speed = Total Distance/Total Time

Time = Distance/Speed     

Calculation:

Time taken by motorcycle = 60/15 = 4 hours

Time taken by car = 48/12 = 4 hours

Total distance = Distance covered by motorcycle + Distance covered by car

Total distance = 60 + 48 = 108 km

Total time = 4 + 4 = 8 hours

Average speed = 108/8 = 13.5 km/h

∴ The Average speed of the boy is 13.5 km/h.

Management process/functions involve 4 basic activities:

1. Planning and Decision Making: Determining Courses of Action,
2. Organizing: Coordinating Activities and Resources,
3. Leading: Managing, Motivating and Directing People,
4. Controlling: Monitoring and Evaluating activities.

GIVEN:

Dinesh speed = 20 km/hr = 20 × 5/18 = 50/9 m/s

and Distance = 400 m

FORMULA USED:

Distance = Speed × Time

CALCULATION:

Distance = Speed × Time

⇒ 400 = 50/9 × Time 

⇒ Time = 72 sec

∴ Time required to cover a distance of 400 m with speed of 50/9 m/s = 72 seconds

(a) The product related decision, due to which the consumers preferred the products of ABC Crackers Ltd., is the 'quality and the brand name'.

Concept:

Negative feedback system:

The transfer function of the negative feedback closed-loop control system is given by

TF = G/ (1 + βG)

Where,

G = open-loop gain

β = feedback factor or gain

Explanation:

Given that,

The open-loop gain is decreased due to the frequency or the effects of the system aging.

But the βG is still large

Then,

The overall gain will be

TF = (G↓) / (1 + βG↓)

As βG is still very large we can neglect 1 (1 << βG)

⇒ TF or Overall gain ≈  G / βG ≈ 1\β

Hence, if we neglect 1 in the denominator then there is no change in the gain even though if there is a change in open-loop gain, but if we consider 1 also then there will be a slight change(decreases) in the overall gain not much.

The correct answer is Integrated Pest Management Programme.

• Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is an effective and environmentally sensitive approach to pest management that relies on a combination of common-sense practices.
• IPM programs use current, comprehensive information on the life cycles of pests and their interaction with the environment. 
• An example of this would be insect pheromones used together with sticky traps.
• Pheromones are the chemicals produced by insects to attract their mates, and so these substances are not toxic. 

Steps involved in IPM are:

Step 1: Inspection. The cornerstone of an effective IPM program is a schedule of regular inspections. 
Step 2: Preventive Action. 
Step 3: Identification. 
Step 4: Analysis.
Step 5: Treatment Selection. 
Step 6: Monitoring.
Step 7: Documentation.

• The seeds certification is voluntary.
• The quality of the seeds is guaranteed by the certification agencies.
• For the seeds to be certified they must satisfy both minimum field and seed standards.
• The samples of the seeds can be taken by both the seed certification officer and seed inspectors for inspection.

The production of new varieties of animals which are superior to their parents through selective breeding or mating is called animal breeding. 

There are two control breeding methods 

1. Artificial insemination 

2. Multiple ovulation embryo transfer technology (MOET) 

Artificial insemination 

Semen of superior male is collected and-injected unto the reproductive tract of selected female. 

Significance: 

1. It helps to overcome several problems of normal mating. 

2. Semen of a desirable bull can be inseminated into cows. 

3. Semen can be stored by cryopreservation to use at later stages and can be easily transported to distant places. 

4. Semen of single ejaculation can be used to inseminate large number of cows.

Multiple Ovulatuion Embryo transfer technology (MOET) Technique for herd improvement by successful production of hybrids 

1. Hormones (FSH) are administered to the cow for inducing follicular maturation and super ovulation. 

2. Cow produces 6-8 eggs instead of one egg and is either mated with, superior bull or artificially inseminated. 

3. Fertilized egg at 8-32 cell stage are recovered non-surgically & transferred to surrogate mother. 

Significance: 

1. It is practiced in cattle, sheep, rabbits, buffaloes, etc. 

2. Genetically superior animals can be produced. 

3. It solves the problems of infertility. 

4. A single female can donate many ovules. 

5. Preservation and transport of embryos is convenient.
