Write about the Ukraine and Russia war. |
|
Answer» The Russo-Ukrainian War is an ongoing war, primarily involving Russia, Belarus and pro-Russian forces on one side, and Ukraine on the other. Armed conflict began in February 2014 in the wake of Euro maidan, centred on the status of Crimea and the parts of Donbas which are internationally recognized as part of Ukraine. The conflict had included the Russian annexation of Crimea(2014) the Donbas war(2014- present) naval incidents, cyberwarfare, and political tensions. After Russia military build-ups near Ukraine's borders in 2021, Russia launched a large scale invasion of Ukraine on 24th February 2022. Following the Euro maidan protests and the subsequent removal of Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych on 22 February 2014, and amidst pro - Russian unrest in Ukraine, Russian soldiers without insignias took control of strategic positions and infrastructure within the Ukrainian territory of Crimea. On 1 March 2014, the Federation Council of the Russian Federation unanimously adopted a resolution to petition Russian President Vladimir Putin to use military force in Ukraine. The resolution was adopted several days later, after the start of the Russian military operation on the "Returning of Crimea". Russia then annexed Crimea after a widely criticized local referendum which was organized by Russia after the capturing of the Crimean Parliament, whose outcome was for the Autonomous republic of Crimea to join the Russian Federation. In April, demonstrations by pro-Russian groups in the Donbas area of Ukraine escalated into a war between the Ukrainian government and the Russian-backed separatist forces of the self-declared Donestk and Luhansk People republics. In August, Russian military vehicles crossed the border in numerous locations of Donetsk Oblast. The incursion by the Russian military was seen as responsible for the defeat of Ukrainian forces in early September. |

You are given prisms made of crown glass and flint glass with a wide variety of angles. Suggest a combination of prisms which will (a) deviate a pencil of white light without much dispersion, (b) disperse (and displace) a pencil of white light without much deviation. |
|
Answer» (a)Place the two prisms beside each other. Make sure that their bases are on the opposite sides of the incident white light, with their faces touching each other. When the white light is incident on the first prism, it will get dispersed. When this dispersed light is incident on the second prism, it will recombine and white light will emerge from the combination of the two prisms. (b)Take the system of the two prisms as suggested in answer (a). Adjust (increase) the angle of the flint-glass-prism so that the deviations due to the combination of the prisms become equal. This combination will disperse the pencil of white light without much deviation. |

Assertion: Lipases of bile help in the emulsification of fats. Reason: Lipases can break large fat droplets into smaller ones.A. If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.B. If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.C. If assertion is true but reson is false.D. If both assertion and reason are false. |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - D It is not lipases but the bile which are responsible for the emulsification of fats. Lipases can digest fat in significant amounts only when large fat droplets are broken into tiny droplets to form a fina emulsion. Emulsification of fats by bile salts thus increases the lipase action on fats. |

The leaving of neutrophils from the blood vessels to act on the site of injury is called as ________(a) Histosis(b) Diapedesis(c) Amboidal Movement(d) Flagellation |
|
Answer» Correct choice is (b) Diapedesis The best I can explain: When a WBC or a neutrophil, in this case, is moving out of the blood vessels, the size of the pores in the blood vessels is too small as compared to the size of the WBC. Thus, for the WBCs to come out, they squeeze out a tiny amoeboid leg out if the pore and slowly move out. This process is diapedesis. |

The hourly wages of a mason have increased by 25%. Since the increase, the number of hours he works daily has reduced by 16%. If he was earning Rs. 120 per day before the increase, how much (in Rs.) is he earning now?1. Rs. 1262. Rs. 1503. Rs. 1444. Rs. 120 |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : Rs. 126 Concept used: Daily wages = hourly wages × work hours. Calculation: Let the original hourly wages and work hours be Rs. x and y hours respectively. Since he used to earn Rs. 120 earlier, xy = 120 New hourly wages = Rs. (1.25x) and new working hours = 0.84y New daily wages = (1.25x)(0.84y) = 1.05xy = 1.05 × 120 = Rs. 126 ∴ New daily wages is Rs. 126 |
