  • Q. Electricity is produced through dry cell from
  • filter_dramaExplanation
    Answer is : A

    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.

  • 2. Relations produced from E - R Model will always be in ______
  • filter_dramaExplanation
    Answer is : A

    Concept:

    ER model describes data as entities, relationships, and attributes. It is a high-level conceptual data model. This model is used to define the data elements and relationships for a specified system.

    Entity:

    The entity is a thing in the real world with an independent existence. An entity may be an object with physical existence. For example particular person, car or it may be an object with a conceptual existence For example company, job, etc.

    Attributes:

    Each entity has attributes – the particular properties that describe it.

    Relationship:

    It is used to describe the relation between two entities.

    Explanation:

    E-R Diagram is design level task and Relational model is implementation.

    The relational model is implemented from E-R Diagram and in this, it gets rid of the multivalued attributes.

    Relations produced from the E - R Model will always be in 1NF, that is, Simple atomic values with non-multivalued attributes.

    NOTES:

    The relation is also referred to as a table.
  • 3. Find the L.C.M of 35, 90 and 45
  • filter_dramaExplanation
    Answer is : D

    Factors of 35 = 5 × 7

    Factors of 90 = 2 × 3 × 3 × 5

    Factors of 45 = 3 × 3 × 5

  • 4. Which of the following is a biotic component of the ecosystem
  • filter_dramaExplanation
    Answer is : C

    Key Points

    • The environment of an organism is all the biotic and abiotic factors that make up its surroundings
    • Biotic components are the living things that shape an ecosystem. Example: plants, fungi, animals, bacteria, Blue-Green Algae (BGA), etc.
    • Abiotic components are non-living components that influence an ecosystem. 
    • Examples of abiotic factors are temperature, air currents, soil, water, sunlight, minerals, etc. 

    Important Points

    • A virus is considered a connecting link between Living and Non-living things because of its biotic and abiotic characters.
