Answer : 1. "promise to pay for goods later."
Explanation :
Answer: A) promise to pay for goods later. Explanation: If as a business, you buy goods or services on credit from a supplier (accounts payable) then the supplier will supply the goods and business will incur a liability to the supplier for that amount, but no cash will change hands at that stage. Some of those shop keepers allowed regular "trustworthy" customers to purchase items without having the full payment. Hence, Buying on credit means that no actual money has changed hands.

Answer : 2. "Specific heat"
Explanation :
Answer: B) Specific heat Explanation: 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.

Answer : 1. "14/33"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 14/33 Explanation: Total number of chairs = (3 + 5 + 4) = 12. Let S be the sample space. Then, n(s)= Number of ways of picking 2 chairs out of 12 = 12×11/2×1 = 66 Let n(E) = number of events of selecting 2 chairs for selecting no white chairs. => 8C2 = 8×7/2×1 = 28 Therefore required probability = 28/66 = 14/33.

Answer : 1. "Rs. 6000"
Explanation :
Answer: A) Rs. 6000 Explanation: Let the sum invested be Rs. P Let the rate of interest be R% per annum => Interest earned for 5 years = (P x 5 x R/100) = PR/20 Now, given that the interest earned increased by Rs. 600 if the Rate increased to (R+2)% => SI = (P x 5 x (R+2))/100 = PR/20 + 10P/100 Hence, PR/20 + 10P/100 = PR/20 + 600 => P = 6000 Therefore, the sum invested is Rs. 6000
