Q:

What is the Focus of an Earthquake?

Answer

A Focus of an earthquake is the location where the earthquake begins. The ground ruptures at this spot, then seismic waves radiate outward in all directions.

At this focus point, the release of energy due to faulting actually occurs during an earthquake. The point directly above the focus on the surface is called Epicenter.


The focus is also called as Hypocenter as it is the synonym of the focus.

Q:

In a box, there are four marbles of white color and five marbles of black color. Two marbles are chosen randomly. What is the probability that both are of the same color?

A) 2/9 B) 5/9
C) 4/9 D) 0
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 4/9

Explanation:

Number of white marbles = 4

Number of Black marbles = 5

Total number of marbles = 9

Number of ways, two marbles picked randomly = 9C2

Now, the required probability of picked marbles are to be of same color = 4C2/9C2  +  5C2/9C2

= 1/6 + 5/18

= 4/9.

Q:

What is a Contact Force and explain with an example?

Answer

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.

Q:

Two persons Shyam and Rahim can do a job in 32 days together. Rahim can do the same job in 48 days alone. They started working together and after working 8 days Rahim is replaced by a third person Ram whose efficiency is half that of Rahim. Find in how many days the remaining work will be completed by both Shyam and Ram together?

A) 16 days B) 72/5 days
C) 15 days D) 96/5 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 72/5 days

Explanation:

Work done by Shyam and Rahim in 8 days = 8/32 = 1/4

Remaining work to be done by Shyam and Ram = 1 - 1/4 = 3/4

Given efficieny of Ram is half of Rahim i.e, as Rahim can do the work in 48 days, Ram can do the work in 24 days.

One day work of Ram and Shyam = (1/32 - 1/48) + 1/24 = 5/96

Hence, the total work can be done by Shyam and Ram together in 96/5 days.

 

Therefore, remaining work 3/4 can be done by them in 3/4 x 96/5 = 72/5 = 14.4 days.
