  • It was fought between Pratap Singh of Mewar, the senior Rajput chief, and a Mughal army led by Raja Man Singh of Jaipur.
  • It represented an attempt by the Mughal emperor Akbar to subdue the last of the independent chiefs of Rajasthan.
  • Pratap Singh made a stand at the pass of Haldighat, about 12 miles (19 km) from the fortress of Gogunda and northwest of Udaipur.

  • After initial successes by the Mewari army in battle, the tide slowly turned against them.
  • In a fierce battle in which Pratap found himself wounded, he called a tactical retreat.

9285.

6x+3y=6xy 2x+4y=5xy

Answer»

Let, 

6x + 3y = 6xy ————————(1)

2x + 4y = 5xy ————————(2)

(2) × 3 =>

6x + 12y = 15xy ——————-(3)

Subtracting (3) From (1)

6x + 3y = 6xy

6x - 12y = -15xy


-9y = -9xy

x = 1

From (2),

6(1) + 12y = 15(1)y

3y = 6

y = 2

Let f, g : R → R be functions defined by where [x] denote the greatest integer less than or equal to x. Then, the function fog is discontinuous at exactly : (A) one point (B) two points (C) three points (D) four points

Answer»

Correct option is (B) two points

Check continuity at x = 0 and also check continuity at those x where 

g(x) = 0 

g(x) = 0 at x = 0, 2

fog (0) = -1

fog (0) = 0

Hence, discontinuous at x = 0

fog(2+) = 1

fog(2-) = -1

Hence, discontinuous at x = 2

What is the smallest number which when divided by 16,20,25 leaves remainder as 7,11,16 respectively?

Answer»

16 - 7 = 9

20 - 11 = 9

25 - 16 = 9

We observe that 9 is the common number.

LCM( 16,20,25) = 400

Smallest number = 400 - = 391

13. A small pin is fixed on a table and it is viewed from a distance of 50 cm from above. A glass slab of thickness 15 cm is placed just above the pin, parallel to surface to table, then image of this pin will be viewed at what height ? Draw the sketch also. 3Refractive index of Glassis = 2     

Answer»

Actual depth of the pin , d=15cm
Apparent dept of the pin = d' 
′Refractive index of glass is μ=1.5
Ratio of actual depth to the apparent depth is equal to the refractive index of the glass i.e. 
μ= d/d'

⇒d' =10cm
The distance at which the pin appears to be raised = d'−d= 15−10=5cm
For a small angle of incidence, this distance does not depend upon the location of the slab.
