See the following mathematical manipulations.
(i) Let x = 5
(ii) Then x2 – 25 = x – 5
(iii)(x – 5) (x + 5) = x – 5
(iv) x + 5 = 1 [Cancelling (x – 5) from both sides]
(v) 10 = 1 [Putting x = 5]
Which of the above is the wrong step?
(i) to (ii)
(ii) to (iii)
(iii) to (iv)
(iv) to (v)
Inner plates of the solar system are rocky, whereas outer planets are gaseous. One of the reasons for this is that
Solar heat drove away the gases to the outer region of the solar system.
Gravitational pull of the sun pulled all rocky material to the inner solar system.
Outer planets are larger than the inner planets.
Comets delivered the gaseous materials to the outer planets
The number of craters observed due to meteoritic impacts during the early stages of formation, is less on the earth than that on the Moon because,
Formation of craters on the Earth was difficult due to the presence of hard rocks.
Impacting bodies on the Earth were smaller in size.
Craters on the earth are now covered by ocean water.
Earlier craters are not preserved due to continuous modification of Earth’ssurface by geological processes.
