Hindi writer Krishna Sobti has been chosen for this years Jnanpith Award for her contribution to Indian Literature. This is 53rd Jnanpith Award for India.

Let the two digits be x & y

From given data in the question, we get

x + y = 3(x - y)

x + y = 3x - 3y

=> 2x = 4y

x/y = 2/1

For having the 2:1, numbers satisfying are

12, 21, 24, 42, 36, 63, 48, 84

From this 36 is eleminated because it is a perfect square and no others are prime or perfect squares.

Hence, there exists 7 such 2-digit numbers => 12, 21, 24, 42, 63, 48, 84.

From the above figure, we can say that there is the same amount of alcohol in one regular beer (340 ml/12 oz, 5% alcohol), one glass of wine (140 ml/5oz, 12% alcohol), one glass of fortified wine (85 ml/3oz, 20% alcohol) and one shot of spirits (45 ml/1.5 oz, 40% alcohol).

Hence, the given statement whiskey has more alcohol than wine is TRUE.

Rolling friction or rolling drag is the force resisting the motion when a body rolls on a surface. It is mainly caused by non-elastic effects, that is, not all the energy needed for deformation of the wheel, roadbed, etc... is recovered when the pressure is removed.

Another cause of rolling resistance lies in the slippage between the wheel and the surface, which dissipates energy.
