A body (solid sphere) of mass m makes an elastic collision with another idential body at rest. Just after collision the angle between the velocity vector of one body with the initial line of motion is `15^(@)` then the angle between velocity vector of the other body with the initial line of motion isA. `75^(@)`B. `60^(@)`C. `45^(@)`D. `30^(@)` |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - A Since collision is elastic `(1)/(2)mv^(2)=(1)/(2)mv_(1)^(2)+(1)/(2)mv_(2)^(2)` `impliesv_(1)^(2)+v_(2)^(2)=v^(2)` …(i) And momentum conservation given `mvecv=mvecv_(1)+mvecv_(2)` `impliesvecv_(1)+vecv_(2)vecv` ..(ii)f ltbr. Equation (i) and (ii) shows that angle between the velocity o both bodes after collision is `90^(0)` thus angle made by another body `=90-15=75^(0)` |

Two radioactive elements R and S disintegrate as `RtoP+alpha,lamda_(R)=4.5xx10^(-3)"years"^(-1)` `StoQ+betal,lamda_(S)=3xx10^(-3)"years"^(-1)` Starting with number of atoms of R and S in the ratio of 2:1 this ratio afte4r the lapse of three half lives of R will beA. `3:2`B. `1:3`C. `1:1`D. `2:1` |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - C `(lamda_(R))/(lamda_(S))=1.5` So, the rate of disintegration of R will be 1.5 times that of S. Thus, the half life of S will be 1.5 times that of R. So, two half lives of S will be equal to the three half -lives of R `(N_(R))/(N_(S))=(0.25)/(0.25)=1` |

“When a plan becomes operational, control is necessary to measure progress, to uncover deviation, and to take corrective steps”. On the light of the above statement identify and explain the concepts and their relationship. |
|
Answer» The concepts are planning and controlling and the following steps are necessary to establish a good relationship between them. 1. Control is always based on Planning- Every manager uses certain Standards for measuring the performance which are laid down by planning. So planning is a pre-requisite for controlling 2. Planning without Controlling is meaningless and control without Planning is blind- A good plan will not bring any concrete result if the management is lacking in controlling Planning identifies the goals and determines the ways to achieve them whereas control ensures attainment of goals by evaluating performance and taking corrective action. 3. Planning and controlling are both forward looking and backward looking- Planning is looking ahead because plans are prepared for future Controlling is looking forward because it aims to improve future performance and helps in better planning in future. Planning is looking backwards because new planning is guided by past experiences. Controlling is looking backwards as it compare actual performance with standards fixed in the past. |

In other words, such an asset will have well-defined credit weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the bank will sustain some loss, if deficiencies are not corrected. A loss asset is or where loss has been identified by the bank or internal or external auditors or the RBI inspection but the amount has not been written off, wholly or partly. |
