The question asks to identify the group in the Modern Periodic Table that contains elements with a completely filled valence shell and are chemically inactive. This describes the characteristics of noble gases.
Correct Option: B) 18 — Group 18 elements (noble gases) have a completely filled valence shell (duplet for He, octet for others) and are chemically inactive due to their stable electron configuration.
To find the speed of the stream, we first need to calculate the speed of the boat upstream. We are given the distance covered upstream and the time taken. Once we have the upstream speed, we can use the formula relating upstream speed, speed of the boat in still water, and speed of the stream.
Identify the given values:
Calculate the speed of the boat upstream (\(v_u\)):
The formula for speed is:
\[ \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \]So, the upstream speed is:
\[ v_u = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{38\ \text{km}}{4\ \text{h}} = 9.5\ \text{km/h} \]Relate upstream speed to boat speed and stream speed:
Let the speed of the stream be \(v_s\). The upstream speed is the difference between the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the stream:
\[ v_u = v_b - v_s \]Solve for the speed of the stream (\(v_s\)):
Rearrange the formula to find \(v_s\):
\[ v_s = v_b - v_u \]Substitute the known values:
\[ v_s = 12\ \text{km/h} - 9.5\ \text{km/h} = 2.5\ \text{km/h} \]Correct Option: C) 2.5
This question tests the understanding of how the speed of light changes when it passes from one medium to another, specifically from a rarer medium to a denser medium. This phenomenon is governed by the refractive index of the media.
Correct Option: C) speeds down
The question asks to identify the sport Gurmeet Singh is associated with. This requires knowledge of prominent Indian athletes and their respective sports.
Gurmeet Singh is a well-known Indian athlete who has represented the country in various international competitions.
He is particularly recognized for his achievements in race walking.
He was the first Indian to win a gold medal in the Asian Race Walking Championships in 2012.
A) Race walk - Gurmeet Singh is an accomplished Indian race walker. He has won medals at international events, including the Asian Race Walking Championships.
The problem asks us to solve a quadratic equation for \(x\), with the constraint that \(x\) must be a natural number (\(x \in N\)). We will use algebraic manipulation to isolate \(x\).
Start with the given equation:
\[ (x - 2)^2 - 36 = 0 \]Add 36 to both sides of the equation:
\[ (x - 2)^2 = 36 \]Take the square root of both sides. Remember to consider both positive and negative roots:
\[ x - 2 = \pm \sqrt{36} \]\[ x - 2 = \pm 6 \]This gives us two possible cases:
Case 1: \(x - 2 = 6\)
Add 2 to both sides:
\[ x = 6 + 2 \]\[ x = 8 \]Case 2: \(x - 2 = -6\)
Add 2 to both sides:
\[ x = -6 + 2 \]\[ x = -4 \]Now, consider the condition given in the problem: \(x \in N\). Natural numbers (\(N\)) are positive integers \(\{1, 2, 3, \dots\}\).
From Case 1, \(x = 8\). Since 8 is a positive integer, it is a natural number.
From Case 2, \(x = -4\). Since -4 is a negative integer, it is not a natural number.
Therefore, the only valid solution for \(x\) that satisfies the given condition is \(x = 8\).
Correct Option: D) 8
The value \(x=8\) satisfies the equation and the condition that \(x\) is a natural number.
The question asks to identify the type of tissue our bones are. This requires knowledge of the different types of animal tissues and their classifications.
Correct Option: D) Connective
Bones are a prime example of specialized connective tissue. Connective tissues are diverse and include bone, cartilage, blood, adipose tissue, and fibrous connective tissue. They all share the common characteristic of having cells embedded in an extracellular matrix. In the case of bone, this matrix is hard and calcified, providing strength and rigidity.
