  • Can you find new height of the marble pile ? (. .see details)?

    Please follow up the link given below for the picture.

    http://i854.photobucket.com/albums/ab104/RakeshDub...

    Kedar sent a container of marbles by road from Mumbai to Pune. The container was 2m × 2m × 2.5m in size with height being the larger dimension. Marbles of 2 cm diameter were arranged to fill the entire base and then additional layers of marbles were arranged with each upper marble exactly on top of corresponding marble in the previous layer (as in the given figure ). The marbles were thus placed upto 2m height to complete the cubical structure. However, on reaching Pune, when opened the container, he found the height of structure was not 2m as promised by Kedar, but something else. Kedar defended saying that marbles may have readjusted due to jiggling. Can you find new height of this marble pile ?

  • A Solar Eclipse Question?

    A person claimed that he saw a solar eclipse when the size of the solar disk was 26' and that of the lunar disk was 30'. He also claimed that at the the time of the maximum eclipse, distance between the centres of the two discs was 7'. Qualitatively show that he could not have observed a total eclipse. Find the percentage of the solar disc covered at the time of maximum eclipse. (Given: cos^-1 (1/26) ≈ 0.49π rad.) Thanks.

  • Doubt ! how do you find the equation of the straight line?

    A ball moving around the circle, x² + y² – 2x – 4y – 20 = 0, in anti-clockwise direction leaves it tangentially at the point P(–2, –2). After getting reflected from a straight line it passes through the centre of the circle. Find the equation of the straight line if its perpendicular distance from P is 5/2.

  • What's your opinion about such answerers?

    As we know that there is no end of knowledge and a

    Mathematics-question can be solved in different-different

    ways/methods (shorter-smarter or lengthy-boring/tedious

    or funny-interesting) yet some answerers show off, tend to

    be over smart after giving their answers and they also comment

    about other answerer's answers. They as well as think that if

    they have attempted a question, no-one can now attempt

    that question even if the question is still open to answer or

    it shows,"left for 3 days" / "left for four days". After giving

    their so-called nice and correct answer they think 'now

    it is a copyright matter' so no-one can solve it better than that.

    They don’t forget to distribute the certificates of 'stalkers, trolls

    . ..etc, if you tried to solve that question after being solved by

    them. They any how want to become a top answerer in two-

    three weeks. I don't want to disclose the name of such

    answerer as he is my contact-friend. What’s your opinion plz. ??

    Should anyone not to answer such questions whose answers are already come at the screen even if the

    the question is still open ? . . . . . .

    Should anyone comment for other's answers rudely ?

    Shouldn’t we report this to Y/A team, if anyone is doing these unfair ?
