The molecules are also frequently and randomly undergoing collisions, which tend to oppose the effect of fall under gravity. The density of air is nearly uniform throughout the room because (A) the mass of the molecules is very small (B) the gravitational potential energy mgh is such lesser than the average thermal energy kT. (C) the gravitational potential enrgy mgh is mush greater the the average thermal energy kT. (D) mgh is nearly of the same magnitude as kT, which results in the cancellation of the two opposing factors. A parallel plate capacitor is charged fully by using a battery.

The ionization energy or enthalpy of Na is less than that of Li but the hydration enthalpy of Li is higher than that of Na. Difference between ionization enthalpy of both is less than difference between their hydration enthalpy so overall oxidation potential of Li is greater than Na. Therefore Li metal is a better reducing agent than Na metal.

We can find the answer through option as the sum of weight of packet taken from trucks is 1022870 gm and its unit digit is 0. The truck that have heavier bags have unit digit 0. So, the truck have lighter bags in which the sum of weight of bags must have unit digit 0. So, according to option D. i.e. truck no. 2, 8 Track 2 have 21 bags and total weight = 21 × 999 gm = .......8 gm Truck have 27 bags and total weight = 27 × 999 = 128 × 999 gm = ......2 gm So, the unit digit of the weight contain by truck 2, 8 together is 0. 1

As we want the distance between two point is at least r. Now when the point A, B are at distance r.Then the angle made arc BA is 60º. Now as chord AB come closer to centre the length of chord AB is increased that is it is greater than r and the angle is also increases i.e. from 60º to 180º and now when chord AB move way from centre then the length of chord AB decreases , when chord AB reach CD the length of AB equal to r and the angle chang from 180º to 60º CLASS-XII_STREAM-SB+2_PAGE # 189

So, the angle required for desired conditions = 2(180 – 60) = 240 Total angle for all around the circle = 360º So, required propability = 89.
