RADAR - RAdio Detection And Ranging.

A radar system consists of a transmitter producing electromagnetic waves in the radio or microwaves domain, a transmitting antenna, a receiving antenna (often the same antenna is used for transmitting and receiving) and a receiver and processor to determine properties of the objects. 

Radar is an object-detection system that uses radio waves to determine the range, angle, or velocity of objects. It can be used to detect aircraft, ships, spacecraft, guided missiles, motor vehicles, weather formations, and terrain.

Radio waves from the transmitter reflect off the object and return to the receiver, giving information about the object's location and speed.

Now, the principal amount P = Rs. 1,45,440

Rate of interest R = 20%/annum

Now monthly income I = PTR/100 = 1,45,440 x 20 x 1/100 x 12

= 2908800/1200

= Rs. 2424.

Hence, her monthly income = Rs. 2424.

SHORT is the required five letter word, which becomes SHORTER when two letters 'ER' are added to it.

Given word is GLACIOUS has 8 letters.

=> C is fixed in one of the 8 places

Then, the remaining 7 letters can be arranged in 7! ways = 5040.

Let the greater and smaller number be p and q respectively.

4q = p + 5 ------ (I)

p = 3q+2 ------- (II)

From equation (I) and (II)

q = 7

p = 23

Savannas are home to a wide diversity of animals.

Many animals of the savanna migrate throughout the year, searching for food and water. Many of the droughts are seasonal and hit one area before another, so animals are constantly following the rains.

Hence, Rain fall is what often governs animal migration on savannas.
