Answer : 3. "71"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 71 Explanation: To find the greatest number which divides the numbers 964, 1238 and 1400 leaving the remainders 41, 31 and 51 is nothing but the HCF of (964 - 41), (1238 - 31), (1400 - 51). Therefore, HCF of 923, 1207 and 1349 is 71.

Answer : 4. "Refraction of light & Total Internal Reflection of light"
Explanation :

Answer: D) Refraction of light & Total Internal Reflection of light Explanation: A Mirage is a naturally occurring optical phenomenon in which light rays bend to produce a displaced image of distant objects or the sky. It is caused due to Total internal Reflection. It is an optical illusion observed in deserts or hot summer days due to which a person sees a pond of water some distance ahead of him in which the surrounding objects appear inverted. How Mirage Forms:: 1. The temperature of other layers of atmosphere goes on decreasing as we go up.2. Therefore density and refractive index of air changes as one goes up.3. Thus a ray of light,gets refracted more and more away from the normal.4. At a particular angle when a ray of light exceeds critical angle, total internal reflection takes place and ray of light gets reflected in the same medium.5. when the reflected ray reaches our eye, it appears as coming from tree or sky .6. Hence the inverted image of tree creates an impression from a pond of water.

Answer : 1. "84 km/hr"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 84 km/hr Explanation: Let the speeds of the car, train and bus be 5x, 9x and 4x km/hr respectively.Average speed = 5x + 9x + 4x/3 = 18x /3 = 6x km/hr.Also, 6x = 72 => x = 12 km/hrTherefore, the average speed of the car and train together is = 5x+9x2= 7x = 7 x 12 = 84 km/hr.
