Question Discussion & Solution

The correct answer is Bone.

• Bone:
  • Bone is living, growing tissue. It is made mostly of collagen, a protein that provides a soft framework, and calcium phosphate, a mineral that adds strength and hardens the framework.
  • Osteoporosis, or porous bone, is a disease characterized by low bone mass and structural deterioration of bone tissue, leading to bone fragility and an increased risk of bone fractures.

Additional Information

• Heart:
  • A large proportion of cardiovascular disease is due to atherosclerosis.
  • In atherosclerosis, the walls of your arteries become thick and stiff because of the build up of fatty deposits called plaques. 
• Glomerulonephritis is a group of diseases that injure the part of the kidney that filters blood.
• Asthma, Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), Pneumonia are common lung diseases.

The correct answer is Its momentum is doubled.

Key Points

• Momentum is a vector quantity; it has both magnitude and direction.
• Isaac Newton’s second law of motion states that the time rate of change of momentum is equal to the force acting on the particle.
• Momentum can be calculated by multiplying the mass of an object by its forward velocity. (mv = kg*m/s).
• Mass and velocity are both directly proportional to the Momentum.
  • If you increase either mass or velocity, the Momentum of the object increases proportionally.
  • If you double the mass or velocity, you double the Momentum.
  • If you halve the mass or velocity, you half the Momentum.
• Newton's laws of motion-
  • ​Newton’s first law states that if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by force. This postulate is known as the law of inertia.
  • Newton’s second law is a quantitative description of the changes that a force can produce in a body's motion. It states that the time rate of change of a body's momentum is equal in both magnitude and direction to the force imposed on it. The momentum of a body is equal to the product of its mass and its velocity.
  • Newton’s third law states that when two bodies interact, they apply forces to one another equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. The third law is also known as the law of action and reaction. This law is important in analyzing static equilibrium problems, where all forces are balanced, but it also applies to bodies in uniform or accelerated motion.

Important Points

• Acceleration, the rate at which velocity changes with time in terms of both speed and direction. A point or an object moving in a straight line is accelerated if it speeds up or slows down. Motion on a circle is accelerated even if the speed is constant because the direction is continually changing.
• Kinetic energy, a form of energy that an object or a particle has because of its motion. If work, which transfers energy, is done on an object by applying a net force, the object speeds up and gains kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is a property of a moving object or particle and depends not only on its motion but also on its mass.
• Potential energy, stored energy that depends upon the relative position of various parts of a system. Spring has more potential energy when it is compressed than stretched. A steel ball has more potential energy raised above the ground than it has after falling to Earth.

The correct answer is Methane.

Key Points

• Methane (CH4)
  • It is the simplest hydrocarbon consisting of one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms and the simplest hydrocarbon, is the most abundant hydrocarbon pollutant.
  • It is a powerful greenhouse gas.
  • Major natural sources of methane include emissions from wetlands, and oceans and from the digestive processes of termites.
  • Methane is more than 25 times as potent as carbon dioxide at trapping heat in the atmosphere.

Additional Information

• Butane is a gaseous component (at room temperature and atmospheric pressure) of the Alkane group having the chemical formula is C4H10.
• It is a colourless, highly flammable, and easily liquefied gas.
• In the abundance of oxygen, it forms Carbon dioxide, but if limited oxygen is available, then it forms Carbon Monoxide.

2C4H10 + 13O2 → 8CO2 + 10H2O                   (oxygen in plenty)

2C4H10 + 9O2 → 8CO + 10H2O                      (oxygen is limited)

• Uses –
  • Gasoline blending
  • Fuel gas
  • Fragrance extraction solvent
  • Feedstock for the manufacture of ethylene and butadiene
  • Ingredient for synthetic rubber
  • Isobutane to enhance the Octane number of gasoline in refineries.
• A propane molecule has three carbon atoms and eight hydrogen bonds and has the formula C3H8. 
• Propane is a colourless, easily liquefied, gaseous hydrocarbon (compound of carbon and hydrogen) and the third member of the paraffin series following methane and ethane.
• Propane is produced as a by-product of two other processes, natural gas processing and petroleum refining.
• It is separated in large quantities from natural gas, light crude oil, and oil-refinery gases and is commercially available as liquefied propane or as a major constituent of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG).
• Uses: 
  • It is used in LPG, also used as biofuel in buses and taxis and it is also the main gas in blowtorches and for hot air balloons.
  • Propane gas has become a popular choice for barbecues and portable stoves because its low boiling point makes it vaporize as soon as it is released from its pressurized container.
• The chemical formula of Ethane is C2H6.
• It is a colourless, odourless gas at normal temperature and pressure.
• It is extracted from natural gas on an industrial scale and is a petrochemical by-product of petroleum refining.
• Michael Faraday first synthesized it in 1834, using the electrolysis of a solution of potassium acetate.

The correct answer is Gold.

• Gold is not found in the Chota Nagpur Plateau.

Key Points

• Chhota Nagpur Plateau:
  • Chotanagpur plateau represents the north-eastern projection of the Indian Peninsula.
  • Chhota Nagpur plateau has an abundance of mineral resources such as mica, bauxite, copper, limestone, iron ore and coal.

Additional Information

• Gold in India is found in Karnataka and Uttar Pradesh. 

Concept:

ArithmeticException is an unchecked exception in Java. Usually, one would come across java. lang. ArithmeticException: Divide ( / ) by zero which occurs when an attempt is made to divide two numbers and the number in the denominator is zero

Code snippet:

int a = 0;

int b = 10/a      // divide by zero exception.

Additional Information 

• A null pointer exception is thrown when an application attempts to use null in a case where an object is required. These include: Calling the instance method of a null object. Accessing or modifying the field of a null object.
• Signals that a method has been invoked at an illegal or inappropriate time. In other words, the Java environment or Java application is not in an appropriate state for the requested operation
• The array index out of bounds error is a special case of the buffer overflow error. It occurs when the index used to address array items exceeds the allowed value. It's the area outside the array bounds which is being addressed, that's why this situation is considered a case of undefined behavior..
