Charles Babbage, the father of computer, invented the first general-purpose computer in an effort to prevent the mathematical errors that were prevalent in the human-calculated mathematics of his time.

Given 7 + 7/7 + 7 x 7 - 7

By using BODMAS rule,

7 + 1 + 7 x 7 - 7

= 8 + 49 - 7

= 57 - 7

= 50.

Hence 7 + 7/7 + 7 x 7 - 7 = 50.

The only active volcano in India is situated in Andaman-Nicobar islands.

The Declaration of Independence express Legal rights of citizens.

Given total number of students = 80

Total teachers = 5

Number of coupons each student got = 15 x 80/100 = 12

Number of coupons each teacher got = 25 x 80/100 = 20

Therefore, total number of shopping coupons = 80 x 12 + 5 x 20 = 960 + 100 = 1060.

A sweat equity share is an equity share issued by the company to employees or directors at a discount or for consideration other than cash for providing know-how or making available rights in the nature of intellectual property rights or value additions.

A Contact force is a force applied to a body by another body that is in contact with it. Contact force acts on a point of direct contact between the two objects. This force can either be continuous as a continuous force or can be momentary in the form of an impulse. Contact force is governed by Newton’s Laws.

Examples :: Contact force is responsible for most of the interactions we experience in the daily life.

1. Writing your name with a pen, pushing a car up a hill, lifting an object, etc...

2. Kicking a ball, hammering a nail, etc...

are some of the everyday examples where contact forces are at work.

In the first case, the force is continuously applied by the person on the car or pen or an object while in the second case the force is delivered in a short impulse.

Contact forces are often decomposed into orthogonal components

one perpendicular to the surface in contact called the normal force, and

one parallel to the surface in contact, called the friction force.
