Question Discussion & Solution

The correct answer is My Dear Kuttichathan.

• India's first 3D film was My Dear Kuttichathan.

Key Points

• The movie was released in the year 1984.
• It was directed by Jijo Punnoose.
• The movie was later dubbed in Hindi as Chhota Chetan.

Additional Information

• Dhundiraj Govind Phalke is known as the Grandfather of Indian Films.
• National Film Awards
  • The National Film Awards are the most prominent film award ceremony in India, established in 1954 and it is administered, along with the international film festival of India and the Indian Panorama, by the Indian Government’s Directorate of Film Festivals since 1973.
• Dada Saheb Phalke Award​:
  • The Dada Saheb Phalke Award is India’s highest award in cinema given annually by the Government of India for lifetime contribution to Indian Cinema.
  • It was instituted in 1969.

The relation is:

1) Sports : Ground → Sports are organised in ground.

2) Rubber : Eraser → Rubber is used to erase writings on paper.

3) Cinema : Screen → Cinema is shown on screen

4) Drama : Stage → Drama is played on stage.

Hence, Rubber : Eraser is the correct answer.

The correct answer is chemical energy.

Key Points

• The dry cell is a type of electric battery which is used for portable electrical devices.
• Electricity is produced through the dry cells from electrochemical energy. Hence, Option 1 is correct.
• A common dry cell is a zinc-carbon cell.
• The electrolyte is immobilized as a paste by a dry cell, with just enough humidity in it to allow current to flow.
• Like a wet cell, a dry cell can work without spilling in any direction, because there is no free liquid in it.
• The versatility makes it ideal for mobile devices.
• The first wet-cell batteries, in comparison, were usually fragile glass containers featuring lead rods sticking from an open-top.
• Hence, they required careful handling to prevent spillage.
• The dry-cell battery development made a significant advance in battery safety and portability.
• Batteries render electricity from chemical energy.
• Batteries consist of one or more different parts, or cells, which contain an electrolyte called a chemical.
• Every cell has two electrodes that are electrically conductive immersed in its electrolyte.
• The electrodes consist of different materials; one releases electrons into the electrolyte, and the other absorbs them.
• Once an electrical system is attached to the electrodes, an electrical current passes through it and supports its operation with electric power.
• The energy contained in the dry cell is therefore in the form of chemical energy.

Additional Information

• Thermal energy
  • It is also called heat energy 
  • It is produced when a rise in temperature causes atoms and molecules to move faster and collide with each other.
  • The energy that comes from the temperature of the heated substance is called thermal energy.
  • Thermal energy is energy that comes from a substance whose molecules and atoms are vibrating faster due to a temperature rise.
• In physical sciences, mechanical energy
  • It is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy.
  • It is the macroscopic energy associated with a system.
  • The principle of conservation of mechanical energy states that if an isolated system is subject only to conservative forces, then the mechanical energy is constant.
• Nuclear power
  • It is the use of nuclear reactions to produce electricity.
  • Nuclear power can be obtained from nuclear fission, nuclear decay, and nuclear fusion reactions.
  • Presently, the vast majority of electricity from nuclear power is produced by nuclear fission of uranium and plutonium in nuclear power plants.

The correct answer is In 1982.

• The National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD) is a top-level development financial institution in India, established in 1982 to provide agricultural and rural credit.

Key Points

• National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD) is the apex institution of Rural Credit.
• It was established on 12 July 1982 by the merger of Agriculture Credit Department and reconstruction of Agriculture and Development Corporation of the Reserve Bank of India.
• Its establishment is based on the recommendations of Shivraman Committee.
• Food stocks are maintained by the Central Government for three purposes:
  • Maintaining prescribed buffer stock norms for food security,
  • Monthly supply through Public Distribution System (PDS),
  • Market intervention to stabilise open market prices.

The correct answer is Dungarpur.

• Dungarpur district of Rajasthan does not touch two States of India.

Key Points

• Dungarpur district is the third smallest district of Rajasthan.
  • It shares borders with Udaipur and Banswara districts.
  • The district consists of 5 tehsils Aspur, Dungarpur, Sagwara, Simalwara and Bchiwara.
  • Places of historic importance in Dungarpur are Juna Mahal, Udai Bilas Palace, Gaib Sagar Lake and Badal Mahal.

Additional Information

• Dholpur shares border with Bharatpur and Karauli district of Rajasthan
  • It also shares a border with Agra of Uttar Pradesh and Gwalior and Moreana of Madhya Pradesh.
• Bharatpur district touches the district of Alwar, Dholpur and Dausa of Rajasthan.
  • It also shares a border with the Mathura and Agra districts of Uttar Pradesh and Gurgaon district of Haryana.
• Hanumangarh shares its borders with Churu, Sri Ganganagar, Punjab and Haryana.
