Concept:

• Energy is required for all activities.
• It is needed to cook, to provide light and heat, to propel vehicles and to drive machinery in industries.
• Energy can be generated from fuel minerals like coal, petroleum, natural gas, uranium and electricity.
• Energy resources can be classified as conventional and non-conventional sources.
• Conventional sources include firewood, cattle dung cake, coal, petroleum, natural gas and electricity (both hydel and thermal).
• Non-conventional sources include solar, wind, tidal, geothermal, biogas and atomic energy.
• Energy sources can also be classified as renewable(that can be regenerated) and non-renewable (cannot be regenerated)

Explanation:

• All conventional sources produce energy by combustion and hence produce carbon dioxide
• An exception is a hydel energy
• Hydroelectricity is generated by fast-flowing water, which is a renewable resource
• On the other hand, non-conventional energy sources do not cause pollution and use renewable source of energy.
• Nuclear energy is obtained by altering the structure of atoms. When such an alteration is made, much energy is released in the form of heat and this is used to generate electric power

• India has a huge potential for generating nuclear power.
• Uranium and Thorium, which are available in Jharkhand and the Aravalli ranges of Rajasthan are used for generating atomic or nuclear power.
• The Monazite sands of Kerala is also rich in Thorium. 
• The first nuclear power plant in India was established at Tarapur, Maharashtra in 1969
• At present, there are 7 nuclear power plant in India with 22 operating reactors having a capacity of 6780 MW

  Name Of Nuclear Power Station Location Kakrapar Atomic Power Station – 1993 Gujarat (Kalpakkam) Madras Atomic Power Station – 1984 Tamil Nadu Narora Atomic Power Station- 1991 Uttar Pradesh Kaiga Nuclear Power Plant -2000 Karnataka Rajasthan Atomic Power Station – 1973 Rajasthan Tarapur Atomic Power Station – 1969 Maharashtra Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant – 2013 Tamil Nadu

 ⇒ Nuclear energy does not produce dioxide

(b) Elephanta Caves

The correct answer is Thailand.

• Thailand is bordered in the west and northwest by Myanmar (Burma), in the southwest by the Andaman Sea.
• Thailand has a population of 68 million people.
• India shares the border with seven countries — China, Pakistan, Bhutan, Myanmar, Afghanistan, Nepal, and Bangladesh.
• India shares its longest boundary with Bangladesh, followed by China.
• India’s longest border is with Bangladesh while the shortest border is with Afghanistan.

•  The length of India’s land borders with neighboring countries is as under: 

The correct option is Water, solar energy, wind, geothermal energy resource.

• Water – Renewable
• Solar energy – Renewable
• Wind – Renewable
• Geothermal energy – Renewable
• Nuclear - Non-Renewable
• Natural gas - Non-Renewable
• Petroleum - Non-Renewable

Explanation:

There are basically two sources of energy:-

Concept:

• Groundwater is the water found under the ground in soil spaces, cracks of earth's crust etc
• The presence of groundwater in soil enables the plant to take it up to fulfil its water requirements
• It also indicates a healthy soil
• Groundwater is the main source of drinking water as well as irrigation in many parts of the country.

Explanation:

• The rainwater and water from other sources such as rivers and ponds seeps through the soil and fills the empty spaces and cracks deep below the ground.
• The process of seeping water into the ground is called infiltration.
• The groundwater thus gets recharged by this process.
• At places, the groundwater is stored between layers of hard rock below the water table. This is known as an aquifer.
• Water in the aquifers can be usually pumped out with the help of tube wells or handpumps.

• Groundwater is one of the most important water source in the country especially in rural areas
• However, with increasing stress on natural resources because of human demand, groundwater resources are being depleted.
• They have also got polluted because of the use of chemicals in the soil
• A large part of the country's economy depends on agriculture, which is dependent on groundwater.
• Hence there is a need to conserve groundwater.
• According to recent reports, 22% of groundwater has already dried up. 
• Urban cities are facing huge water shortage because of low groundwater levels, especially in Tamil Nadu.

• A half-inferior ovary (also known as “half-superior”, “superior” or “partially inferior,”) is embedded or surrounded by the receptacle. This occurs in flowers of the family Lythraceae, which includes the crape myrtles. Such flowers are termed perigynous or half-epigynous.

In this case half inferior or half superior in plum, rose and peach. Both half inferior and half superor are same.

Correct option is (a) 0

For an isothermal process in vacuum 

dU = 0 

dW = 0 

dU = dq + dW

∴ dq = 0

(b) Both assertion and reason are true, but reason is not a correct explanation of assertion.

The oxide in the higher oxidation state of the element is more acidic than that of lower oxidation state. Their acidic character decreases down the group. The oxides of the type E₂0₃ of nitrogen and phosphorus are purely acidic, that of arsenic and antimony amphoteric and those of bismuth predominantly basic.

Correct option is (B) Ba(N₃)₂ 

Ba(N₃)₂ → Ba + 3N₂

(D) Statement I is false but statement II is true.

As +ve oxidation state increases, EN of element increases hence acidic character increases. Down the group, non-metallic character decreases, acidic character decreases.

Acidic character : E₂ O₅ > E₂ O₃

Down the group, acidic character of E₂O₃ decreases

d. It causes hemolysis in human beings

b. Mycoplasma phages

Cr has five unpaired d-electrons. Hence metallic bonds are strong. In Hg, there is absence of unpaired electrons and size is larger.

Due to their -ve reduction potential.

For fusing basic requirement is pressing. There are three types of press :

1. Steam 

2. Flat bad 

3. Continuous fusing

1. Steam press: Used for certain type of fusible. Required glue line temperature is achieved by the means of steam from the head of the press.

Limitations: sometimes steam press does not reach the heat level required by most of the resins.

2. flat bed press: It is a purpose built fusing machine.

It consists of padded top and bottom buck with heated element in one or both bucks bottom buck is static, with top buck raised or lowered to the press.

Correct option is A) lock them up

Dr Talimaran Ao (January 28, 1918 — September 13, 1998)

Bundle tickets are the bundle card or bad barcode stickers which are attached to a bundle (containing same type of goods) which give information about that particular bundle is called Bundle ticket.

Bundle tickets give the information about the work such as the style number, size of garment the number of garments in the bundle and the date issued. This is helpful especially when a variety of garment styles, in a range of sizes, have been cut from the same fabric.

Bundle tickets are used in progressive bundle system. In this system bundles of garment parts are more in sequence from one sewing machine operator to next. Each worker receives a bundle of unfinished garment and performs a single operation on each garment of that bundle. After finishing his work on a bundle they are retied the bundle and passed to next operator. Information of work is given on bundle ticket.

Correct option is B) let them off
