As parabola is a locus of a point, which moves so that its distance from focus and directrix is always equal.

The latus rectum of a conic section is the chord (line segment) that passes through the focus, is perpendicular to the major axis and has both endpoints on the curve. The length of the latus rectum is determined differently for each conic.

The length of a parabola's latus rectum is 4p, where p is the distance from the focus to the vertex.

Concave type of glasses are used in the headlights of the vehicles as the light from the bulb which is at focus will converges out and spreads and reflects back parallely.

Voltage is also referred to as Electromotive Force or Electrical Potential or Electrical Pressure.

Given the company has 8 SD + 6 SRP + 7 IN = 21 cars + 'x' small cars.
Given SD makes 1/4 th of the total fleet.
=> 8 = 1/4 (21 + x)
=> 32 = 21 + x
=> x = 11
Therefore, the company has 11 small cars.

A Slip ring is a ring in a dynamo or electric motor which is attached to and rotates with the shaft, passing an electric current to a circuit via a fixed brush pressing against it.

Slip rings are usually made of Phosphor Bronze.

Slip ring motors usually have a 'phase-wound' rotor. This type of rotor has a 3-phase, double-layer, distributed winding consisting of coils used in alternators. The rotor core is made up of steel laminations which have slots to accommodate formed 3-single phase windings.
