Computer was invented by Charles Babbage.

The First Mechanical Computer Designed by Charles Babbage, a British mathematician was called as Analytical Engine which resembles today's modern machines  between 1833 and 1871.

The watch gains 5 seconds in 3 minutes = 100 seconds in 1 hour.

From 8 AM to 10 PM on the same day, time passed is 14 hours.

In 14 hours, the watch would have gained 1400 seconds or 23 minutes 20 seconds.

So, when the correct time is 10 PM, the watch would show 10 : 23 : 20 PM

Brightness of bulb depends on both voltage and current. The brightness depends on power.

Since we know that  Power (P) = Voltage x Current = V I

So whether you increase the current or the voltage the brightness will increase.

Example Illustration:

 If you connect a long bulb and a round bulb in series, the long bulb glows but the round bulb does not. Both of them have the same current flowing through them (they are in series) but the long bulb has a greater voltage across it because it has more resistance (even though V= IR is not obeyed exactly, voltage drop does depend on the resistance). If you connect a round bulb and a long bulb in parallel, however, it is the round bulb that is brighter because now the voltage across both bulbs is the same but the current is larger through the round bulb (smaller resistance).

Hence, the brightness of a bulb depends on power i.e, both voltage and current.

Other side = d2-s2= 2254-814 = 1444 = 6 ft

  Area of closet = (6 x 4.5) sq. ft = 27 sq. ft.

Given the cost price of the articles = Rs. 450

To get overall 20% gain,

Total Selling Price = (20/100) x 450 = 540

One third of the CP = 1/3 x 450 = Rs. 150

But given 1/3 of articles are sold at 10% loss

S.P of 1/3 of articles = 90% of 150

= 90 x 150/100 = 135

Then, S.P on remaining 2/3 goods must be

= 450 - 135 = 405 ...........(1)

CP on remaining goods

= 2/3 x 450 = 300 ............(2)

Profit = SP - CP = 405 - 300 = 105

Profit %  = (105/300) x 100

= 35%.

The man said, "Her father is the only son of my father."

Then the woman's father and the man's is the same

=> The woman and the man are brother and sisters.

Hence, the man is the brother of the woman.

The Indus Valley Civilization was Non-Aryan because it was Urban.

Harappan Civilization is also known as The Indus Valley Civilisation. It was a Bronze Age civilisation mainly in the northwestern regions of South Asia, extending from what today is northeast Afghanistan to Pakistan and northwest India.
