Rajat beats Nitin by 240 m in a 1560 m race. Then they go to race on a slope where Rajat starts from bottom of the slope and Nitin starts from top of the slope they run towards each other and when they meet Nitin has travelled 20 m more than Rajat. If the speed of any person on the slope, compared to normal speed, becomes (150/11)%  more in decline and 10% less in incline, what was the total length of the slope? 
Determine the corrections or otherwise of the following Assertion and Reason : Assertion : For longitudinal static stability of an aircraft, slope of moment curve should be negative. Reason: Positive slope will result in more static stability than negative slope. Hence, slope should be positive always. and are true and is the correct reason for b) Both and are true but is not the correct reason for c) is true but is false d) is false but is true
