The given statement, The heat from the sun reaches earth through Convection is FALSE.

Heat from the sun actually reaches the earth through Radiation. The process occurs through electromagnetic radiation, specifically, in which molecules are warmed when the heat reaches them, and these molecules then warm other molecules touching them, which continues until we feel the sun's heat.

In VIBGYOR. It has colors ordered from highest to lowest frequency.

              Violet > Indigo > Blue > Green > Yellow > Orange > Red

That says Violet has the highest frequency.

We know, Speed of light = Frequency x Wavelength

=> As frequeny is inversely proportional to wavelength i.e, as frequwncy goes high wavelength goes down.

So, the violet color has the highest frequency.

From the given data,

Largest number = 974

Therefore, the required number is 749.

Initial quantity of copper =80100 x 50 = 40 g 

And that of Bronze = 50 - 40 = 10 g

Let 'p' gm of copper is added to the mixture

=> 50 + p x 90100 = 40 + p

=> 45 + 0.9p = 40 + p

=> p = 50 g

Hence, 50 gms of copper is added to the mixture, so that the copper is increased to 90%.

1/2 as a percentage means

1/2 = 0.5 in decimal

Now, in percentage means 0.5 x 100% = 50%.

According to the given data,

Let Cost price of the article be 'cp'

Then,

102.25 cp - 92 cp = 164 x 100

10.25 cp = 16400

cp = 1600

Now, if he sells at Rs. 1760

Profit = 1760 - 1600 = 160

Profit% = 160/1600 x 100 = 10%.

Antarctica is surrounded on all sides by water. The Indian, Pacific and Atlantic Oceans surround it on all sides. These three Oceans all meet at Antarctica. The three oceans are collectively called the Southern Ocean.

This is the area located south of 50° latitude.

Let the number be 'x'. Then, from given data

x/2 + x/3 + x/4 = x+22
13x/12 = x+22
x = 264
