In a chemical reaction, substances (elements or compounds) called reactants are changed into other substances (compounds or elements) called products. Hence, reactants are those which start the chemical reaction.

For example:

1. In the burning of natural gas, methane (CH4) and oxygen (O2) are the reactants in the chemical reaction. are the substances formed by a chemical reaction. In the burning of natural gas, carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) are the products formed by the reaction.

2. H2+O2 ----> H2O

Here H2 & O2 are called Reactants and H2O is called Product.

Central Processing Unit (CPU) is the brain of any computer system.

Let the speed of the faster train be 'S' kmph

Then speed of the slower train will be '(S-5)' kmph

Time taken by faster train = 350/S hrs

Time taken by slower train = 350/(S-5) hrs

 350s-5 - 350s = 2 hrs 20 min = 213 = 73

=> S = 30 km/hr.

We can easily Answer this by taking some values.

The question states that the two fractions, each have values between 0 and 1.

Let us say one of the fraction is 1/2 and the other fraction is 1/3 .

The product of the two fractions is 1/2 x 1/3 = 1/6 .
 is lesser than both 1/2  and 1/3 .

So, the correct answer is that the product is always less than either of the original fractions. 

Length = 6 m 24 cm = 624 cm
Width = 4 m 32 cm = 432 cm
HCF of 624 and 432 = 48
Number of square tiles required = (624 x 432)/(48 x 48) = 13 x 9 = 117.

As the distance travelled is constant, the time taken is inversely proportional to speed.

Let 'u' be the speed of the current and 'v' be the speed of the boat.

Speed of the boat downstream = v + u & upstream = v - u

=> v+u/v-u = 30/20 => v/u = 5 => v = 5u

=> v + u = 6u = 10/20/60 miles/hr

=> 6u = 30 m/h

=> u = 5 m/h

kl>k+1l+1 for (k,l) > 0 and  k > l 

Let     k = x+1    and   l = x

Therefore, x+1x>(x+1)+1(x)+1

 (x + 1) > x

Therefore, log(x+1)log(x)>log(x+2)log(x+1)

⇒logxx+1 >logx+1x+2

A term used interchangeably with diskette is Floppy disk.
