Air pollutants are solid particles, gases, and liquid droplets in the air that can adversely affect ecosystems and the health of humans.

Major ambient air pollutants include toxic metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, benzene, particulate matter (PM), nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, carbon monoxide, and ozone. Power plants, factories, and vehicle and air traffic are the most important anthropogenic sources of air pollution.

In addition, natural sources such as wildfires and volcanic activity contribute to ambient air pollution.

Sociology of religion is the study of the beliefs, practices and organizational forms of religion using the tools and methods of the discipline of sociology.

Complementary angles are those whose sum is 90.

Given here, is a right angled triangle, where anfle C is 90 deg. In this, sum of Angles A + C = 90, since, sum of angles in a right angled triangle = 180, angle C = 90 and

hence sum of A + B = 180 - C = 180 - 90 = 90.

Hence, the pair of cimplementary angles in the given triangle = Angle A + B.

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

Alliteration is an example of Consonance. Consonance is the repetition of consonant sounds in words that are close to one another in a piece of text.

Example is "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers."

Whereas

Assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds, sometimes creating end rhymes.

Refractive Index of glass with respect to water can be calculated by 

(Refractive Index of glass with respect to air) × (1/Refractive Index of water with respect to air)

We know that,

Refractive Index of glass with respect to air = 4/3

Refractive index of water with respect to air = 3/2

Hence, Refractive Index of glass with respect to water = (4/3) x (2/3) = 8/9.
