With slight modifications, the basic formula can be made to deal with compounding at intervals other than annually.

Since the compounding is done at six-monthly intervals, 4 per cent (half of 8 per cent) will be added to the value on each occasion.

Hence we use r = 0.04. Further, there will be ten additions of interest during the five years, and so n = 10. The formula now gives:

V = P(1 + r)10 = 5,000 x (1.04)10 = 7,401.22

Thus the value in this instance will be £7,401.22.

In a case such as this, the 8 per cent is called a nominal annual

rate, and we are actually referring to 4 per cent per six months.

Stratification as actually the settling down of sediments with different properties to form layers/strata over years. Stratification especially occurs on the bed of water bodies such as oceans.

Stratified sedimentary rocks are used to study the ecological conditions over previous years/eras.  

The other choices like Windstorms, Glacial Ice and Stream water are mediums which sediments are transported.

IBM has unveiled the world's smallest computer - a device no bigger than a grain of salt. Presented at the company's Think 2018 conference in Las Vegas, Nevada, the unit measures just 1mm by 1mm but has the same processing power as the x86 chip that ran early Nineties IBM desktop computers.

Given that three athletes can complete one round around a circular field in 16, 24 and 36 min respectively.

Now, required time after which they met for the first time = LCM of (16, 24 & 36) min

Now, LCM of 16, 24, 36 = 144 minutes = 2 hrs 24 min.

A Carpet is the pet which always stays on the floor.

A Secret is what you want to share if you have with you. And if you share that secret with anyone, then secret will not be with you only.

Nutrients that are needed in large amounts are called Macronutrients.

There are three macronutrients required by humans:

1. carbohydrates (sugar),

2. lipids (fats), and

3. proteins.

Each of these macronutrients provides energy in the form of calories.

Some other macronutrients are: nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), sulfur (S), magnesium (Mg), sodium (Na).
