Capillarity fall is reduced if we take the appartus (capillary tube immersed in fluid having acute angle of contact) considerable distance inside the earth( i.e below the earth crust).

Capillarity fall is reduced if we take the appartus (capillary tube immersed in fluid having acute angle of contact) considerable distance inside the earth( i.e below the earth crust). Correct Answer True

Capillary rise is given by h=4*cosθ*σ/ρ*g*d Inside the earth, g (acceleration due to gravity) decreases. Hence, capillary rise will increase compared to that on the earth’s surface.

A university library budget committee must reduce exactly five of eight areas of expenditure - I, J, K. L, M, N, O and P - in accordance with the following conditions: If both I and O are reduced, P is also reduced. If L is reduced, neither N nor O is reduced. If M is reduced, J is not reduced.

Seven people A, B, C, D, E, F and G live on separate floors of a 7-floor building. Ground floor is numbered 1, first floor is numbered. 2 and so on until the topmost floor is numbered 7. Each one of these having a different cars-Cadillac, Ambassador, Fiat, Maruti, Mercedes, Bedford and Fargo but not necessarily in the same order. Only three people live above the floor on which A lives. Only one person lives between A and the one having a car Cadillac. F lives immediately below the one having a car Bedford. The one having a car Bedford lives on an even-numbered floor. Only three people live between the ones having a car Cadillac and Maruti. E lives immediately above C. E is not having a car Maruti. Only two people live between B and the one having a car Fargo. The one having a car Fargo lives below the floor on which B lives. The one having a car Fiat does not live immediately above D or immediately below B. D does not live immediately above or immediately below A. G does not have a car Ambassador. Question : How many people live between the floors on which D and the one having a car Bedford ?
The question below consists of a set of labelled sentences. From the four options given, select the most probable sequence to form a coherent paragraph. A. Acute peritonitis is the acute inflammation of the peritoneum most commonly by bacterial agents making bacterial peritonitis and acute peritonitis synonymous. B. Its fate or sequelae could end up in resolution, adhesions with the gut, inflammatory bands, residual abscess or intestinal obstruction due to adhesions. C. Treatment is mostly supportive of antibiotics and IV fluid with a simultaneous exploration of the abdomen to remove the root cause and cure the patient with antibiotics and IV fluid. D.  The organisms enter the body through various routes like inflamed organs, blood-borne, or direct entry through leakages, perforations etc multiply and come in contact with the peritoneum to pollute it and cause peritonitis.
