Answer C is incorrect because net present value (NPV) is the present value of cash inflows(benifits) minus the present value of cash outflows (costs).

The usual cause of sea breeze is the difference in specific heat capacity between land and water Land heats and cools more quickly than water.

What is the cause of a sea breeze?

The air over the land is warmed and rises, to a greater temperature than that over the sea. This produces a convection current, with cooler air flowing in from over the sea to replace that rising from the land. At night the land cools more than the sea, so the action reverses to produce a land-breeze, blowing off the land.

Archetypes were models of people, behaviors, or personalities. They were inborn tendencies that play a role in influencing human behavior.

For example: A hero, an innocent, the villain, the mentor, etc...

1. The mentor is a common archetype in literature. The mentor is usually old, and this person often has some kind of magical abilities or a much greater breadth of knowledge than others possess.

2. Characters representing the innocent archetype are often women or children. These character archetypes are pure in every way.

3. The villain wants to stop the hero archetype from achieving his or her goal. The villain is often evil, though there is often a reason—however warped that reason may be—why villains are so bad. Villains often want nothing more than to control and have power over everyone and everything around them.

Example :: I’m more interested in music than studies, Arun is taller than Karthik.

Key Challenges of s/w testing:

1. Testing considered late in project

2. Requirements not testable

3. Integration is done after all components have been developed: This might result into full testing not being covered.

4. Complete testing is not possible
