5. It is easier to roll a barrel full of coal tar than to pull it because

Explanation

The correct answer is that the rolling friction is much less than the sliding friction. When an object is rolled, the friction between the object and the surface is distributed over a smaller area compared to when it is slid. This reduces the overall frictional force acting on the object, making it easier to move. In the case of rolling a barrel full of coal tar, the rolling friction allows for smoother movement and requires less force compared to pulling it, where the full weight of the barrel would come into play and increase the sliding friction.

9. The khilafat movement subsided the following 

Explanation

The Khilafat movement subsided due to the assumption of power by Mustafa Kamal Pasha in Turkey and the abolition of the caliphate. This event weakened the movement as it removed the central figure of the caliphate that the movement was advocating for. With the caliphate abolished, the movement lost its main objective and support dwindled. The withdrawal of support by Congress, abandonment of the policy of discrimination against Muslims by the British, and reservation of seats for Muslims in the legislature were important factors, but the assumption of power by Mustafa Kamal Pasha had the most significant impact on the subsiding of the movement.

The nationalized bank will still hold the same deposits that were previously held by the individual banks. Therefore, there will be no change in the total deposits.

Submit
25. What type of farming is common in areas of low rainfall?

Explanation

Livestock ranching is the most suitable type of farming in areas with low rainfall because it requires less water compared to other types of farming. Livestock such as cattle, sheep, and goats can graze on natural vegetation, reducing the need for extensive irrigation. This type of farming is commonly practiced in arid and semi-arid regions where water scarcity is a major challenge. Livestock ranching allows farmers to utilize the available land and resources efficiently while adapting to the environmental conditions of low rainfall areas.

Submit
26. How does common salt help in separating soap from the solution after saponification?

Explanation

Common salt helps in separating soap from the solution after saponification by decreasing the solubility of soap. When common salt is added to the solution, it causes the soap molecules to aggregate and form larger particles called micelles. These micelles are insoluble in water and can easily be separated from the solution through processes such as filtration or sedimentation. Therefore, the addition of common salt decreases the solubility of soap, allowing it to be separated from the solution more effectively.

Explanation

The President of India is responsible for causing the laying of the Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General, the Report of the National Commission for Scheduled Castes, and the Recommendations of the Union Finance Commission before the Parliament. The President does not have the duty to cause the laying of the Report of the Public Accounts Committee, so option 2 is incorrect. Therefore, the correct answer is option 3, which includes only the Reports of the Comptroller and Auditor General, the National Commission for Scheduled Castes, and the Recommendations of the Union Finance Commission.

40. An aeroplane is flying horizontally with a velocity of 600 km/h and at a height of 1960 m. When it is vertically at a point A on the ground a bomb is released from it. The bomb strikes the ground at point B. The distance AB is

Explanation

As the airplane is flying horizontally, the horizontal velocity of the bomb will be the same as the airplane, which is 600 km/h. The time taken by the bomb to reach the ground can be calculated using the formula: time = height / vertical velocity. Since the vertical velocity is 0 (as the bomb is dropped), the time taken will be 0. Therefore, the horizontal distance covered by the bomb will be 0 km. However, the question asks for the distance AB, which is the total distance covered by the bomb. Since the bomb is dropped vertically, the distance AB will be equal to the horizontal distance covered by the airplane, which is 600 km/h * time taken. Substituting the values, AB = 600 km/h * 0 = 0 km. Therefore, the correct answer is 0.33 km.
