The question asks about the significance of Westerly Jet Streams during winter, particularly in the context of India's climate. We need to understand the characteristics of Westerly Jet Streams and their impact on weather phenomena in India during the winter season.
A) Guide Western Disturbances into India
During winter, the Subtropical Westerly Jet Stream shifts southwards and is located over the northern plains of India. This jet stream acts as a guiding force for Western Disturbances, which are important sources of winter precipitation (rain and snow) in North and Northwest India.
The question asks to identify the type of coast that best describes the Eastern Coastal Plains of India. This requires knowledge of coastal geomorphology and the specific characteristics of India's eastern coast.
Correct Option: D) Emergent coast — The Eastern Coastal Plains are wide and characterized by the presence of large deltas and lagoons. These features are indicative of an emergent coast, where the land has risen relative to the sea level, or the sea level has fallen, exposing a broad coastal plain that was once submerged.
The problem presents a proportion in the format \(a : b :: c : x\). This notation means that the ratio of \(a\) to \(b\) is equal to the ratio of \(c\) to \(x\). We can write this as a mathematical equation and then solve for the unknown variable \(x\).
Understand the proportion notation: The expression \(9.8 : 14.7 :: 15 : x\) means:
\[ \frac{9.8}{14.7} = \frac{15}{x} \]Cross-multiply to solve for \(x\): To isolate \(x\), we can cross-multiply the terms:
\[ 9.8 \times x = 14.7 \times 15 \]Calculate the product on the right side:
\[ 14.7 \times 15 = 220.5 \]Formulate the equation with the calculated value:
\[ 9.8x = 220.5 \]Solve for \(x\): Divide both sides by \(9.8\):
\[ x = \frac{220.5}{9.8} \]Perform the division: To simplify the division, we can multiply the numerator and denominator by 10 to remove the decimal points:
\[ x = \frac{2205}{98} \]Simplify the fraction: Both 2205 and 98 are divisible by 7.
So, the equation becomes:
\[ x = \frac{315}{14} \]Further simplify the fraction: Both 315 and 14 are divisible by 7 again.
So, the equation becomes:
\[ x = \frac{45}{2} \]Calculate the final value of \(x\):
\[ x = 22.5 \]C) 22.5 is the correct value for \(x\) obtained by solving the given proportion.
The question asks to identify the author of the book 'Power Within: The Leadership Legacy of Narendra Modi'. This requires knowledge of contemporary political literature and authors.
Correct Option: A) Dr. R Balasubramaniam is the author of the book 'Power Within: The Leadership Legacy of Narendra Modi'. He is a well-known public policy expert and leadership trainer.
While covering a distance of 35 km, a man noticed that after cycling for 4 hours 15 minutes, the distance covered by him was \( \frac{4}{3} \) of the remaining distance. What was his speed (in km/hr, rounded off to one decimal place)?
We are given the total distance, the time spent cycling, and a relationship between the distance covered and the remaining distance at that point. We need to find the man's speed. We will first use the given ratio to find the distance covered in the specified time, and then use the formula \(\text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}\) to calculate the speed.
The time spent cycling is 4 hours 15 minutes. To convert this to hours:
\[ 15 \text{ minutes} = \frac{15}{60} \text{ hours} = \frac{1}{4} \text{ hours} = 0.25 \text{ hours} \]So, the total time \(T = 4 + 0.25 = 4.25\) hours.
Let the total distance be \(D = 35 \text{ km}\).
Let the distance covered be \(D_c\).
Let the remaining distance be \(D_r\).
We know that \(D_c + D_r = D\), so \(D_c + D_r = 35\).
The problem states that the distance covered was \( \frac{4}{3} \) of the remaining distance:
\[ D_c = \frac{4}{3} D_r \]Substitute this into the total distance equation:
\[ \frac{4}{3} D_r + D_r = 35 \]Combine the terms with \(D_r\):
\[ \left( \frac{4}{3} + 1 \right) D_r = 35 \]This simplifies to:
\[ \left( \frac{4+3}{3} \right) D_r = 35 \]So,
\[ \frac{7}{3} D_r = 35 \]Now, solve for \(D_r\):
\[ D_r = 35 \times \frac{3}{7} = 5 \times 3 = 15 \text{ km} \]Now find \(D_c\):
\[ D_c = 35 - D_r = 35 - 15 = 20 \text{ km} \]Alternatively, using the ratio \(D_c = \frac{4}{3} D_r\):
\[ D_c = \frac{4}{3} \times 15 = 4 \times 5 = 20 \text{ km} \]The speed \(S\) is the distance covered \(D_c\) divided by the time taken \(T\):
\[ S = \frac{D_c}{T} = \frac{20 \text{ km}}{4.25 \text{ hours}} \]To simplify the division:
\[ S = \frac{20}{4.25} = \frac{20}{\frac{17}{4}} = 20 \times \frac{4}{17} = \frac{80}{17} \]Now, perform the division and round to one decimal place:
\[ S \approx 4.7058 \text{ km/hr} \]Rounding to one decimal place, the speed is \(4.7 \text{ km/hr}\).
Correct Option: D) 4.7
The question asks for the primary objective of a NITI Aayog report titled "Automotive Industry – Powering India's Participation in Global Value Chains". The title itself provides a strong clue regarding the report's focus. NITI Aayog's role generally involves strategic planning and policy recommendations for economic development.
Correct Option: B) To propose strategies for enhancing India's role in global automotive value chains
The question asks to identify the Tiger Reserve where the village of Jaigir was successfully relocated from its core area. This is a factual question related to wildlife conservation efforts in India, specifically concerning tiger reserves and village relocation programs.
B) Palamu Tiger Reserve — Jharkhand authorities successfully relocated Jaigir, the first village inside the Palamu Tiger Reserve, entirely outside its core area. This initiative is part of broader conservation efforts to create inviolate spaces for wildlife within tiger reserves.
The problem asks us to determine the seating arrangement of seven people (A, B, C, D, G, H, I) around a circular table, all facing the center. We need to use the given clues to deduce their positions and then identify who sits third to the right of C.
C) I sits third to the right of C.
The question asks to identify which existing Act was specifically repealed by the hypothetical "Immigration and Foreigners Bill, 2025". This requires knowledge of major Indian legislation related to immigration and the status of foreigners.
Correct Option: C) The Foreigners Act, 1946. This Act is the primary legislation governing the entry, stay, and departure of foreign nationals in India. A new comprehensive bill titled "Immigration and Foreigners Bill, 2025" would logically seek to repeal and replace such a foundational act to consolidate and update the legal framework.
