A random sample of the daily amount of fuel (in litres) used for running power and heating systems in a manufacturing unit is listed here. Estimate the mean fuel consumption with 90% confidence. => 974.6 < μ < 1233.7 or 1084.8 < μ < 1123.6 or 900 < μ <..

Relation Between Atomic Mass Unit and MeV (Mass Energy Relation) - The unit in which atomic and nuclear masses are measured is called atomic mass unit (a.m.u). 1 a.m.u is defined as 1/12 t h of the mass of an atom of 6 C 1 2 isotope. It can be shown that 1 a.m.u = 1.66..

One lunar month is the time in which the moon completes one revolution around the earth. Units of all other physical quantities can be derived from the basic units and hence are called "derived units". The following table shows the list of various physical q..

The cell is the fundamental structural and functional unit of living organisms. Cells need energy for active transport, to move molecules between the environment and the cells across cells or within cells. Cells obtain energy by oxidation of molecules like glucose. This oxidation takes pl..

The word root represents the number of carbon atoms in the parent chain and it is the basic unit of the name. The parent chain is selected as per the longest chain rule i.e., the parent chain is the longest continuous chain of C-atoms including the functional group and the multiple bonds..

If we rub our hands for a while, the hands become warm. Let us examine the process. Rubbing hands is mechanical work and in this process heat is generated. We can say heat energy is produced as a result of mechanical work. Let us examine another example - when you light a matchstick, you strike it ..

Every organism has a tendency to increase its entropy, which is very much in accordance with the second law of thermodynamics. In order to maintain its organisation at the molecular, cellular and organismic levels, every organism is forced to obtain energy from its surroundings, so that the state ..

Carolus Linnaeus (1707-1778) was a Swedish biologist. He is considered as a pioneer in the field of taxonomy because of two significant contributions. fig. 6.2 -Carolus Linnaeus He made an attempt to classify living organisms to two kingdoms-the plant kingdom and the animal kingdom. He divided each..
