Correct Answer: George Gabriel Stokes


Solution : The correct option is George Gabriel Stokes.

In 1851, George Gabriel Stokes, an Irish mathematician and physicist, founded the science of hydrodynamics with his law of viscosity. This seminal work described the motion of a small sphere through a viscous fluid, providing fundamental insights into fluid dynamics and paving the way for significant advancements in fluid mechanics. He also made significant contributions to fluid dynamics, optics, and the behaviour of waves, coining the term Stokes' Law for viscous drag in fluids.

Question : Law of Demand violations include:

Option 1: Substitution effect is negative

Option 2: Income effect is negative

Option 3: Negative income effect is less than substitution effect

Option 4: Negative income effect is greater than substitution effect

Team Careers360 15th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Negative income effect is greater than substitution effect


Solution : Income effect is greater than substitution effect in giffen goods. Giffen goods are the exceptions to the law of demand.
GIffen goods are those incredibly subpar products that, even if their prices go down, their demand goes down. Giffen products have a strong negative income effect, which indicates that when buyer income rises, so does consumer demand for these products.
Hence option d is the correct answer.

Team Careers360 12th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Mandatory spending is spending that is required by law, while discretionary spending is spending that is not required by law


 


Solution : The correct answer is (b) Mandatory spending is spending that is required by law, while discretionary spending is spending that is not required by law. 

Mandatory spending, also known as entitlement spending, refers to government expenditures that are determined by existing laws and obligations. These are typically programs like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and other mandatory benefit programs. The funding for mandatory spending is considered mandatory because it is required by the eligibility criteria and rules established in the legislation.

On the other hand, discretionary spending is spending that is determined by annual appropriation acts passed by Congress. It includes funding for various government agencies, defense, education, infrastructure, research, and other programs. Unlike mandatory spending, discretionary spending is subject to annual budget decisions and can be adjusted by Congress through the appropriations process.

To summarize, mandatory spending is legally required, while discretionary spending is subject to annual congressional appropriations.

Question : Which of the following scientists had discovered "the law of electric resistance"?

Option 1: Charles Coulomb

Option 2: George Simon Ohm

Option 3: Michael Faraday

Option 4: None of the options is correct

Team Careers360 16th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: George Simon Ohm


Solution : The correct option is G.S. Ohm.

The law of electric resistance is commonly attributed to George Simon Ohm. He formulated Ohm's Law, which describes the relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) in an electrical circuit. Ohm's law is fundamental to the understanding of electrical circuits and is expressed by the equation V = I * R, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance.
