Given,

mean of 100 observations is 40

=> Total of 100 observations = 40 x 100 = 4000

84 is misread as 48

=> Difference = 84 - 48 = 36

=> Now, new total of 100 observations = 4000 + 36 = 4036

Correct Mean = 4036/100 = 40.36

Let the amount collected be 'A'
Then, from the given conditions,
A x 110/100 x 90/100 = 7920
A x 0.99 = 7920
A = 7920/0.99
=> 8000

The panchatantra was written by Vishnu sharma, an Indian scholar during the period of Gupta rule. It is during 3rd Century BCE.

Value of Maruti Van, V1 = Rs. 1,96,000
Rate of depreciation, r = 14(2/7)% = 100/7%; Time, t = 2 years
Let V2 is the value after depreciation.

V2 = V11 - r100t
V2 = 196001 - 10071002

V2 = 196000(6/7)(6/7)

V2 = (196000x36)/49 = Rs. 1,44,000.

The stability of the ions is determined by the energy of the lone pairs. Carbon has the least effective nuclear charge (Zeff) and so the lone pair on the CH3− ion has the highest energy, making it the least stable ion and so the strongest base. The Zeff increases as we move across the period until we get to fluorine which has the greatest Zeff and so its lone pairs have the lowest energy, making F− the least basic ion.

In order of decreasing basicity they are ranked LiCH3 > LiNH2 > LiOH > LiF. We are dealing with the ions F−, OH−, NH2− and CH3− and so the factor which influences their basicity is the stability of the ion compared to its conjugate acid.

Mixtures are combination of two or more substances physically which can be separated in to the original.

Matter can be breakdown into two categories. 

1) Pure substances 

2) Mixtures

Here in the given options, options A, B, C are pure substances as they are indicated as S & L in brackets. Option D) is an aqueous solution, that can be dissolved in water.

Except pineapple remaining all three are types of apples.

Pineapple is what kind of apple isn't an apple.

let 't' be the time after which they met since L starts.

Given K is 50% faster than L

50 t + 1.5*50(t-1) = 300

50 t +75 t = 300 + 75

t = 375 / 125 = 3 hrs past the time that L starts

So they meet at (9 + 3)hrs = 12:00 noon.
