The Lami's theorem states that " If three forces coplanar and concurrent forces acting on a particle keep it in equilibrium, then each force is proportional to the sine of the angle between the other two and the constant of proportionality is the same." This theorem is derived from the Sine rule of triangles.

The term biodiversity refers to the variety of life on Earth at all its levels, from genes to ecosystems, and the ecological and evolutionary processes that sustain it.

Maneela lent Rs. 8000 in two parts,

We know that the day repeats every 7 days, 14 days, 21 days,...

So if today is Monday, after 7 days it is again Monday, after 14 days again it is Monday.

Hence, after 2 weeks i.e, 14 days the day repeats and is the same day. 

Let 'K' be the total number of sweets.
Given total number of students = 112
If sweets are distributed among 112 children,
Let number of sweets each student gets = 'L'

=> K/112 = L ....(1)
But on that day students absent = 32 => remaining = 112 - 32 = 80
Then, each student gets '6' sweets extra.

=> K/80 = L + 6 ....(2)
from (1) K = 112L substitute in (2), we get
112L = 80L + 480
32L = 480
L = 15

Therefore, 15 sweets were each student originally supposed to get.

Let C's age be x years.
Then, B's age = 2x years.
A's age = (2x + 2) years.
(2x + 2) + 2x + x = 27
5x = 25 => x = 5
Hence, B's age = 2x = 10 years.

Distance = 70 x 1 ½ = 105 km

Relative Speed = 85 – 70 = 15

Time = 105/15 = 7 hrs

4:30 + 7 hrs = 11.30 p.m.

Let the total length of the pencil = x cms

From the given data,

'x/8' is black

Remaining part = x - x/8 = 7x/8

1/2 of 7x/8 is white

=> 7x/16 is white (Remaining part is 7x/16)

And given that the remaining part is blue and is 3 1/2 cm = 7/2 = 3.5 cm

That remaining part = 7x/16

Therefore,

7x/16 = 7/2

x = 16/2 = 8

Hence, the total length of the pencil = x = 8 cm.
