Answer : 2. "900/19 %"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 900/19 % Explanation: First ten odd numbers form an arithmetic progression of the form1,3,5,7,9......here a = first term = 1d = common difference = 2Average of first n numbers = (2a + (n - 1)d)/2n th term of the AP = a + (n - 1)dSubstituting a = 1, d = 2 and n = 10 in the above formulas average of first 10 numbers = 1010 th term of the AP = 19Therefore average of first 10 terms is 19 - 10 = 9 greater thanthe last term. Hence the average is greater than the sum by9/19 X 100 = 900/19 %

Answer : 3. "Specific Heat formula"
Explanation :

Answer: C) Specific Heat formula Explanation: Q = mc∆T refers to Specific Heat formula.   When heat energy is added to a substance, the temperature will change by a certain amount. The relationship between heat energy and temperature is different for every material, and the specific heat is a value that describes how they relate.   Q = mc∆T   Q = heat energy (Joules, J) m = mass of a substance (kg) c = specific heat (units J/kg∙K) ∆T = change in temperature (Kelvins, K)
