Ayurveda Owes its Origin to Atharvaveda.

The early history of ayurveda asserts that around 1500 BC, ayurveda's fundamental and applied principles got organised and enunciated. In this historical construction, Ayurveda traces its origins to the Vedas, Atharvaveda in particular, and is connected to Hindu religion. Atharvaveda (one of the four most ancient books of Indian knowledge, wisdom and culture) contains 114 hymns or formulations for the treatment of diseases. Ayurveda originated in and developed from these hymns. In this sense, ayurveda is considered by some to have divine origin. Indian medicine has a long history, and is one of the oldest organised systems of medicine. Its earliest concepts are set out in the sacred writings called the Vedas, especially in the metrical passages of the Atharvaveda.

What is Dipole :

when two atoms in a molecule have substantially different electronegativity: One atom attracts electrons more than another, becoming more negative, while the other atom becomes more positive.

Let the first number be K and second number be L
Then, 2K + 3L = 100.....(1)
3K + 2L = 120.......(2)
solving (1)&(2), we get
K = 32 and L = 12

Hence the largest number is 32.

A Committee of 5 persons is to be formed from 6 gentlemen and 4 ladies by taking. 

(i) 1 lady out of 4 and 4 gentlemen out of 6 

(ii) 2 ladies out of 4 and 3 gentlemen out of 6 

(iii) 3 ladies out of 4 and 2 gentlemen out of 6 

(iv) 4 ladies out of 4 and 1 gentlemen out of 6 

In case I the number of ways = C14×C46 = 4 x 15 = 60 

In case II the number of ways = C24×C36 = 6 x 20 = 120 

In case III the number of ways = C34×C26 = 4 x 15 = 60

In case IV the number of ways = C44×C16 = 1 x 6 = 6 

Hence, the required number of ways = 60 + 120 + 60 + 6 = 246

Blotting paper absorbs ink by the process of capillary action. The capillary action is based on the property of surface tension of liquid.

All unsized paper will absorb water. Blotting paper is not sized and made bulkier to provide capillary action for faster absorption of liquid.

Blotting paper has also been sold as a cosmetic to aid in the removal of skin oils and makeup.

Volume of water collected in the tank in 1 hour

⇒ (0.3 × 0.2 × 20km × 1000mts) = 1200 m cubic

If after t hours, the water is at height of 12m,

1200t=200×150×12 

⇒ t = 300 Hours.
