Review Questions

1. Explain the nature of thinking.

Answer

Thinking is the base of all cognitive activities or processes and is unique to human beings.  It involves manipulation and analysis of information received from the environment. Such manipulation and analysis occur by means of abstracting, reasoning, imagining, problem solving, judging, and decision- making. Thinking is mostly organised and goal directed.  One desires to reach the goal by planning, recalling the steps that one has already followed in the past if the task is familiar or inferring strategies if the task is new. Thinking is an internal mental process, which can be inferred from overt behaviour.

2. What is a concept? Explain the role of concept in the thinking process.

Answer

A concept is a mental representation of a category. It refers to a class of objects, ideas or events that share common properties.
Role of concept in the thinking process: Concept formation helps us in organising our knowledge so that whenever we need to access our knowledge, we can do it with less time and effort. For making our thought process quick and efficient, we form concepts and categorise objects and events Concepts usually fall into hierarchies or levels of understanding. The levels are classified as super ordinate (the highest level), basic (an intermediate level), and subordinate (the lowest level). While speaking us mostly use basic level concepts. Children also learn basic level concepts first and then the other levels.
Most of the concepts people use in thinking is neither clear nor unambiguous. They are fuzzy. They overlap one another and are often poorly defined. For example, under which category would you put a small stool? Would you put it under the category of ‘chair’ or under the category of ‘table’? The answer to these questions is that we construct a model or prototype. A prototype is the best representative member of the category. Eleanor Rosch argues that in considering how people think about concepts, prototypes are often involved in real life. In prototype matching, people decide whether an item is a member of a category by comparing it with the most typical item(s) of the category. Therefore, in the above example of the stool, you would try to compare it with a   standard study chair (if you consider it as the typical example of a chair) and a small study table (if you consider it as the typical example of a table) and then match the properties of the stool with these two concepts. If it matches with a chair you would put it under the category of chair otherwise under the category of table.

3. Identify obstacles that one may encounter in problem solving.

Answer

Two major obstacles to solving a problem are mental set and lack of motivation.
Mental Set
Mental set is a tendency of a person to solve problems by following already tried mental operations or steps.
Lack of Motivation:
Lack of motivation is another obstacle to solving problems. Sometimes people give up easily when they encounter a problem or failure in implementing the first step. Therefore, there is a need to persist in their effort to find a solution.

4. How does reasoning help in solving problems?

Answer

Reasoning is the process of gathering and analysing information to arrive at conclusions. In this sense, reasoning is also a form of problem solving. Reasoning, like problem solving, is goal directed, involves inference and can be either deductive or inductive Thus deductive reasoning begins with making a general assumption that you know or believe to be true or then drawing specific conclusion based on this assumption. In other words, it is reasoning from general to particular. Here general assumption is that people run on the railway platform only when they are getting late for the train. The man is running on the platform. Therefore, he is getting late for the train. One mistake that you are making (and generally people do commit such mistakes in deductive reasoning) is that you (they) assume but do not always know if the basic statement or assumption is true. If the base information is not true, i.e. people also run on the platform for other reasons then your conclusion would be invalid or wrong. 

5. Are judgment and decision-making interrelated processes? Explain.

Answer

Judgment and decision- making are interrelated processes. In decision- making the problem before us is to choose among alternatives by evaluating the cost and benefit associated with each alternative. For example, when you have the option to choose between psychology and economics as subjects in Class XI, your decision would be based upon your interest, future prospects, availability of books, efficiency of teachers, etc. You could evaluate them by talking to seniors and faculty members and attending a few classes, etc. Decision-making differs from other types of problem solving. In decision- making we already know the various solutions or choices and one has to be selected. Suppose your friend is a very good player of badminton. S/he is getting an opportunity to play at the state level. At the same time the final examination is approaching and s/he needs to study hard for it. S/he will have to choose between two options, practising for badminton or studying for the final examination. In this situation her/his decision will be based upon evaluation of all possible outcomes.
It can observe that people differ in their priorities and therefore their decisions will differ. 
In real life situations we take quick decisions and therefore, it is not possible always to evaluate every situation thoroughly and exhaustively.

6. Why is divergent thinking important in creative thinking process?

Answer

Divergent thinking is important in creative thinking process .It’s abilities facilitate generation of a variety of ideas which may not seem to be related. Divergent thinking abilities generally include fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. Fluency is the ability to produce many ideas for a given task or a problem. The more ideas a person produce, the higher his fluency ability. Flexibility indicates variety in thinking. It may be thinking of different uses of an object, or different interpretation of a picture, story or different ways of solving a problem. Originality is the ability to produce ideas that are rare or unusual by seeing new relationships, combining old ideas with new ones, looking at things from different perspectives etc. Elaboration is the ability that enables a person to go into details and workout implications of new ideas.

7. What are the various barriers to creative thinking?

Answer

Divergent thinking is important in creative thinking process .It’s abilities facilitate generation of a variety of ideas which may not seem to be related. Divergent thinking abilities generally include fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. Fluency is the ability to produce many ideas for a given task or a problem. The more ideas a person produce, the higher his fluency ability. Flexibility indicates variety in thinking. It may be thinking of different uses of an object, or different interpretation of a picture, story or different ways of solving a problem. Originality is the ability to produce ideas that are rare or unusual by seeing new relationships, combining old ideas with new ones, looking at things from different perspectives etc. Elaboration is the abiDifferent barriers to create thinking are as follows:
Habitual learning is necessary for smooth and efficient functioning within the daily routine, the tendency to be overpowered by habits particularly in one’s ways of thinking can be detrimental to creative expression. We become so used to thinking and perceiving things in a familiar way that it becomes difficult to think in novel ways. It may be related to our tendency to quickly jump to conclusions, not to see problems from fresh perspectives, be satisfied with routine patterns of doing things, or resist to overcome pre- conceived viewpoints, and not to change immediate judgment, etc.
The perceptual blocks prevent us from being open to novel and original ideas.
 Motivational and emotional blocks also interfere with creative thinking which shows that creative thinking is not merely a cognitive process. Lack of motivation, fear of failure, fear of being different, fear of ridicule or rejection, poor self-concept, negativism, etc. May hamper creative thinking. For example, some people may not be motivated enough to extend themselves and make extra efforts. A person may find that s/he cannot do it further, may leave the problem in between or may accept the intermediate idea as the final idea. Further, some people, for example, have negative assumptions about themselves. They feel that they are not capable of doing some tasks. You may be surprised to know that Thomas Alva Edison, the inventor of the bulb, took years of experimentation with hundreds of failures before he produced the first bulb.
 Cultural barriers are related to excessive adherence to traditions, expectations, conformity pressures, and stereotypes. Conformity to some extent is essential for social existence but excessive conformity to traditions, rituals, and procedures are likely to block creative thinking. Cultural blocks arise due to the fear of being different, the tendency to maintain status quo, willingness to accept mediocrity, preservation of personal security, social pressure, over dependence on others, etc.
lity that enables a person to go into details and workout implications of new ideas.

8. How can creative thinking be enhanced?

Answer

There are many strategies which help in enhancing creative thinking. These are as follows
• Becoming more aware and sensitive to be able to notice and respond to feelings, sights, sounds, textures around you. Spot problems, missing information, anomalies, gaps, deficiencies, and so on. Try to notice contradictions and incompleteness in situations that others may not do. For this, cultivate the habit of wider reading, exposure to a variety of information, and develop the art of asking questions, pondering over the mysteries of situations and objects.
• Generating as many ideas, responses, solutions or suggestions on a given task or situation to increase your flow of thoughts. Try deliberately to look for multiple angles of a task and situation to increase flexibility in your thinking. It could be, for example, thinking of alternative arrangements of furniture in a room to generate more space, different ways of conversing with people, looking for costs and benefits of a course of study or career, looking for ways of dealing with an angry friend, helping others, etc.
• Osborn’s Brainstorming technique can be used to increase fluency and flexibility of ideas to open-ended situations. Brainstorming is based on the principle that producing ideas should be kept separate from the evaluation of their worth. The basic assumption is to let the minds think freely and the tendency to put judgment on the worth of ideas may be postponed, i.e. imagination should be given priority over judgment till all the ideas are exhausted. This helps in increasing the fluency of ideas and piling up alternatives. Brainstorming can be practised by playing brainstorming games with family members and friends keeping its principles in mind. Use of checklists and questions often provide a new twist for ideas like, what other changes? What else? In how many ways could it be done? What could be the other uses of this object? And so on.
• Originality can be developed by practicing fluency, flexibility, habit of associative thinking, exploring linkages, and fusing distinct or remote ideas. A creative thinker, it is said, may not evolve new ideas but evolve new combination of ideas. It is the chain of thoughts and cross-fertilisation of ideas that may bring out something new. The idea of the ‘rocking chair’ has come from the combination of ‘chair’ and ‘see- saw’. Practice making unusual and unexpected associations using analogies. Sometimes finding original ideas/solutions requires a dramatic shift of focus which can be facilitated by asking oneself: what is the opposite of the commonplace or usual solution to the problem? Allow conflicting thoughts to co-exist. Looking for solutions opposite to the obvious may lead to original solutions.
• Engaging yourself more frequently in activities which require use of imagination and original thinking rather than routine work according to your interest and hobbies. It may be decorating the house, improvising or redesigning of old objects, making use of waste products in multiple ways, completing incomplete ideas in unique ways, giving new twist to stories or poems, developing riddles, puzzles, solving mysteries and so on.
• Never accepting the first idea or solution. Many ideas die because we reject them thinking that the idea might be a silly idea. You have to first generate a number of possible ideas or solutions, then select the best from among them.
• Getting a feedback on the solutions you decide on from others who are less personally involved in the task.
• Trying to think of what solutions someone else may offer for your problems.
• Giving your ideas the chance to incubate. Allowing time for incubation between production of ideas and the stage of evaluation of ideas may bring in the ‘Aha!’ experience.

9. Does thinking take place without language? Discuss.

Answer

Thinking cannot take place without language. Benjamin Lee Whorf was of the view that language determines the contents of thought. This view is known as linguistic relativity hypothesis. In its strong version, this hypothesis holds what and how individuals can possibly think is determined by the and linguistic categories they use (linguistic determinism). Experimental evidence, however, maintains that it is possible to have the same level or quality of thoughts in all languages depending upon the availability of linguistic categories and structures. Some thoughts may be easier in one language compared to another.

10. How is language acquired in human beings?

Answer

It has been accepted by the most psychologist that both nature and nurture are important in language acquisition.
Behaviourist B.F. Skinner believed we learn language the same way as animals learn to pick keys or press bars. Language development, for the behaviourists follow the learning principles, such as association (the sight of bottle with the word ‘bottle’), imitation (adults use of word “bottle”), and reinforcement.
There is also evidence that children produce sounds that are appropriate to a language of the parent or care-giver and are reinforced for having done so. The principle of shaping leads to successive approximation of the desired responses so that the child eventually speaks as well as the adult. Regional differences in pronunciation and phrasing illustrate how different patterns are reinforced in different areas.
Linguist Noam Chomsky put forth the innate proposition of development of language. For him the rate at which children acquire words and grammar without being taught cannot be explained only by learning principles. Children also create all sorts of sentences they have never heard and, therefore, could not be imitating. Children throughout the world seem to have a critical period — a period when learning must occur if it is to occur successfully — for learning language. Children across the world also go through the same stages of language development. Chomsky believes language development is just like physical maturation- given adequate care, it “just happens to the child”. Children are born with “universal grammar”. They readily learn the grammar of whatever language they hear. Skinner’s emphasis on learning explains why infants acquire the language they hear and how they add new words to their vocabularies. Chomsky’s emphasis on our built-in readiness to learn grammar helps explain why children acquire language so readily without direct teaching.

(4) 3/7 + x = 17/7        (5) 6x = 12        (6) t/5 = 10
(7) 2x/3 = 18         (8) 1.6 = y/1.5        (9) 7x – 9 = 16
(10) 14y – 8 = 13        (11) 17 + 6p = 9         (12) x/3 + 1 = 7/15

Answer

(1) x - 2 = 7
⇒ x = 7 + 2
⇒ x = 9

(2)  y + 3 = 10
⇒ y = 10 - 3
⇒ y = 7

(3) 6 = z + 2
⇒ z + 2 = 6
⇒ z = 6 - 2
⇒ z = 4

(4) 3/7 + x = 17/7
⇒ x = 17/7 - 3/7
⇒ x = (17 - 3)/7
⇒ x = 14/7
⇒ x = 2

(5) 6x = 12
⇒ x = 12/6
⇒ x = 2

(6) t/5 = 10
⇒ t = 10 × 5
⇒ t = 50

(7) 2x/3 = 18
⇒ 2x = 18 × 3
⇒ x = 54/2
⇒ x = 27

(8) 1.6 = y/1.5
⇒ y/1.5 = 1.6
⇒ y = 1.6 × 1.5
⇒ y = 2.4

(9) 7x – 9 = 16
⇒ 7x = 16 + 9
⇒ x = 25/7

(10) 14y – 8 = 13
⇒ 14y = 13 + 8
⇒ 14y = 21
⇒ y = 21/14
⇒ y = 3/2

(11) 17 + 6p = 9
⇒ 6p = 9 - 17
⇒ 6p = -8
⇒ p = -8/6
⇒ p = -4/3

(12) x/3 + 1 = 7/15
⇒ x/3 = 7/15 - 1
⇒ x/3 = 7/15 - 15/15
⇒ x/3 = (7-15)/15
⇒ x/3 = -8/15
⇒ x = -8/15 × 3
⇒ x = -8/5

Exercise 2.2

1. If you subtract 1/2 from a number and multiply the result by 1/2, you get  1/8. What is the number?

Answer

Let the number be x.
A/q,
(x - 1/2) × 1/2 = 1/8
⇒ x/2 - 1/4 = 1/8
⇒ x/2 = 1/8 + 1/4
⇒ x/2 = 1/8 + 2/8
⇒ x/2 = (1+2)/8
⇒ x = 3/8 × 2
⇒ x = 6/8 = 3/4

2. The perimeter of a rectangular swimming pool is 154 m. Its length is 2 m more than twice its breadth. What are the length and the breadth of the pool?

Answer

Given,
Perimeter of rectangular swimming pool = 154 m
Let the breadth of rectangle be x.
A/q,
Length of the rectangle = 2x + 2
Perimeter = 2(length + breadth)
⇒ 2(2x + 2 + x) = 154 m
⇒ 2(3x + 2) = 154
⇒ 3x + 2 = 154/2
⇒ 3x = 77 - 2
⇒ x = 75/3
⇒ x = 25 m
Thus,
Breadth = x = 25 m
Length = 2x + 2 = 50 + 2 = 52 m

3. The base of an isosceles triangle is 4/3 cm. The perimeter of the triangle is 62/15 cm. What is the length of either of the remaining equal sides?

Answer

Base of isosceles triangle = 4/3 cm
Perimeter of triangle = 62/15 cm
Let the length of equal sides of triangle be x.
A/q,
4/3 + x + x = 62/15 cm
⇒ 2x = (62/15 - 4/3) cm
⇒ 2x = (62 - 20)/15 cm
⇒ 2x = 42/15 cm
⇒ x = 42/15 × 1/2
⇒ x = 42/30 cm
⇒ x =7/5 cm
The length of either of the remaining equal sides are 7/5 cm.

4. Sum of two numbers is 95. If one exceeds the other by 15, find the numbers.

Answer

Let the one of the number be x.
Then, other number will be x + 15
A/q,
x + x + 15 = 95
⇒ 2x + 15 = 95
⇒ 2x = 80
⇒ x = 40
First number = x = 40
Other number = x + 15 = 40 + 15 = 55

5. Two numbers are in the ratio 5:3. If they differ by 18, what are the numbers?

Answer

Let the two numbers be 5x and 3x.
A/q,
5x - 3x = 18
⇒ 2x = 18
⇒ x = 9
Thus, the numbers are 5x = 45 and 3x = 27.

6. Three consecutive integers add up to 51. What are these integers?

Answer

Let the three consecutive integers are x, x+1 and x+2.
A/q,
x + (x+1) + (x+2) = 51
⇒ 3x + 3 = 51
⇒ 3x = 51 - 3
⇒ 3x = 48
⇒ x = 16
Thus, the integers are x = 16, x+1 = 17 and x+2 = 18

7. The sum of three consecutive multiples of 8 is 888. Find the multiples.

Answer

Let the three consecutive multiples of 8 are 8x, 8(x+1) and 8(x+2).
A/q,
8x + 8(x+1) + 8(x+2) = 888
⇒ 8 (x + x+1 + x+2) = 888    (Taking 8 as common)
⇒ 8 (3x + 3) = 888
⇒ 3x + 3 = 888/8
⇒ 3x + 3 = 111
⇒ 3x = 108
⇒ x = 36
Thus, the three consecutive multiples of 8 are 8x = 8 × 36 = 288,
8(x+1) = 8 × (36+1) = 8 × 37 = 296 and
8(x+2) = 8 × (36+2) = 8 × 38 = 304

8. Three consecutive integers are such that when they are taken in increasing order and multiplied by 2, 3 and 4 respectively, they add up to 74. Find these numbers.

Answer

Let the three consecutive integers are x, x+1 and x+2.
A/q,
2x + 3(x+1) + 4(x+2) = 74
⇒ 2x + 3x +3 + 4x + 8 = 74
⇒ 9x + 11 = 74
⇒ 9x = 74 - 11
⇒ x = 63/9
⇒ x = 7
Thus, the numbers are x = 7, x+1 = 8 and x+2 = 9

9. The ages of Rahul and Haroon are in the ratio 5:7. Four years later the sum of their ages will be 56 years. What are their present ages?

Answer

Let the ages of Rahul and Haroon be 5x and 7x.
Four years later their age will be (5x + 4) and (7x + 4) respectively.
A/q,
(5x + 4) + (7x + 4) = 56
⇒ 5x + 4 + 7x + 4 = 56
⇒ 12x + 8 = 56
⇒ 12x = 56 - 8
⇒ x = 48/12
⇒ x = 4
Present age of Rahul = 5x = 5×4 = 20
Present age of Haroon = 7x = 7×4 = 28

10. The number of boys and girls in a class are in the ratio 7:5. The number of boys is 8 more than the number of girls. What is the total class strength?

Answer

Let the number of boys be 7x and girls be 5x.
A/q,
7x = 5x + 8
⇒ 7x - 5x = 8
⇒ 2x = 8
⇒ x = 4
Number of boys = 7×4 = 28
Number of girls = 5×4 = 20

11. Baichung’s father is 26 years younger than Baichung’s grandfather and 29 years older than Baichung. The sum of the ages of all the three is 135 years. What is the age of each one of them?

Answer

Let the age of Baichung’s father be x.
Therefor, Age of Baichung’s grandfather = (x+26)
and, Age of Baichung = (x-29)
A/q,
x + (x+26) + (x-29) = 135
⇒ 3x + 26 - 29 = 135
⇒ 3x = 135 + 3
⇒ 3x = 138
⇒ x = 138/3
⇒ x = 46
Age of Baichung’s father = x = 46
Age of Baichung’s grandfather = (x+26) = 46 + 26 = 72
Age of Baichung = (x-29) = 46 - 29 = 17

12. Fifteen years from now Ravi’s age will be four times his present age. What is Ravi’s present age?

Answer

Let the present age of Ravi be x.
Fifteen years later, Ravi age will be x+15 years.
A/q,
x + 15 = 4x
⇒ 4x - x = 15
⇒ 3x = 15
⇒ x = 5
Present age of Ravi = 5 years.

13. A rational number is such that when you multiply it by 5/2 and add 2/3 to the product, you get -7/12. What is the number?

Answer

Let the rational be x.
A/q,
x × (5/2) + 2/3 = -7/12
⇒ 5x/2 + 2/3 = -7/12
⇒ 5x/2 = -7/12 - 2/3
⇒ 5x/2 = (-7 - 8)/12
⇒ 5x/2 = -15/12
⇒ 5x/2 = -5/4
⇒ x = (-5/4) × 2/5
⇒ x = -10/20
⇒ x = -1/2
Thus, the rational number is -1/2

14. Lakshmi is a cashier in a bank. She has currency notes of denominations ₹100, ₹50 and ₹10, respectively. The ratio of the number of these notes is 2:3:5. The total cash with Lakshmi is ₹4,00,000. How many notes of each denomination does she have?

Answer

Let the numbers of notes of  ₹100, ₹50 and ₹10 be 2x, 3x and 5x respectively.
Value of ₹100 = 2x × 100 = 200x
Value of ₹50 = 3x × 50 = 150x
Value of ₹10 = 5x × 10 = 50x
A/q,
200x + 150x + 50x = 4,00,000
⇒ 400x = 4,00,000
⇒ x = 4,00,000/400
⇒ x = 1000
Numbers of ₹100 notes = 2x = 2000
Numbers of ₹50 notes = 3x = 3000
Numbers of ₹10 notes = 5x = 5000

15. I have a total of ₹300 in coins of denomination ₹1, ₹2 and ₹5. The number of ₹2 coins is 3 times the number of ₹5 coins. The total number of coins is 160. How many coins of each denomination are with me?

Answer

Let the number of ₹5 coins be x.
Therefor, number ₹2 coins = 3x
and, number of ₹1 coins = (160 - 4x)
Now,
Value of ₹5 coins = x × 5 = 5x
Value of ₹2 coins = 3x × 2 = 6x
Value of ₹1 coins = (160 - 4x) × 1 = (160 - 4x)
A/q,
5x + 6x + (160 - 4x) = 300
⇒ 11x + 160 - 4x = 300
⇒ 7x = 140
⇒ x = 140/7
⇒ x = 20
Number of ₹5 coins = x = 20
Number of ₹2 coins = 3x = 60
Number of ₹1 coins = (160 - 4x) = 160 - 80 = 80

16. The organisers of an essay competition decide that a winner in the competition gets a prize of ₹100 and a participant who does not win gets a prize of ₹25. The total prize money distributed is ₹3,000. Find the number of winners, if the total number of participants is 63.

Answer

Let the numbers of winner be x.
Therefor, number of participant didn't win = 63 - x
Total money given to the winner = x × 100 = 100x
Total money given to participant didn't win = 25×(63-x)
A/q,
100x + 25×(63-x) = 3,000
⇒ 100x + 1575 - 25x = 3,000
⇒ 75x = 3,000 - 1575
⇒ 75x = 1425
⇒ x = 1425/75
⇒ x = 19
Thus, the numbers of winners are 19.

(7) x = 4/5(x + 10)           (8) 2x/3 + 1 = 7x/15 + 3
(9) 2y + 5/3 = 26/3 - y           (10)  3m = 5 m – 8/5

Answer

(1) 3x = 2x + 18
⇒ 3x - 2x = 18
⇒ x = 18
Putting the value of x in RHS and LHS we get,
3 × 18 = (2 × 18)+18
⇒ 54 = 54
⇒ LHS = RHS

(2) 5t – 3 = 3t – 5
⇒ 5t - 3t = -5 + 3
⇒ 2t = -2
⇒ t = -1
Putting the value of t in RHS and LHS we get,
5×(-1) - 3 = 3×(-1) - 5
⇒ -5 - 3 = -3 - 5
⇒ -8 = -8
⇒ LHS = RHS

(3) 5x + 9 = 5 + 3x
⇒ 5x - 3x = 5 - 9
⇒ 2x = -4
⇒ x = -2
Putting the value of x in RHS and LHS we get,
5×(-2) + 9 = 5 + 3×(-2)
⇒ -10 + 9 = 5 + (-6)
⇒ -1 = -1
⇒ LHS = RHS

(4) 4z + 3 = 6 + 2z
⇒ 4z - 2z = 6 - 3
⇒ 2z = 3
⇒ z = 3/2
Putting the value of z in RHS and LHS we get,
(4 × 3/2) + 3 = 6 + (2 × 3/2)
⇒ 6 + 3 = 6 + 3
⇒ 9 = 9
⇒ LHS = RHS

Putting the value of x in RHS and LHS we get,
(2×5) - 1 = 14 - 5
⇒ 10 - 1 = 9
⇒ 9 = 9
⇒ LHS = RHS

(6) 8x + 4 = 3 (x – 1) + 7
⇒ 8x + 4 = 3x – 3 + 7
⇒ 8x + 4 = 3x + 4
⇒ 8x - 3x = 4 - 4
⇒ 5x = 0
⇒ x = 0
Putting the value of x in RHS and LHS we get,
(8×0) + 4 = 3 (0 – 1) + 7
⇒ 0 + 4 = 0 - 3 + 7
⇒ 4 = 4
⇒ LHS = RHS

(7) x = 4/5(x + 10)

⇒ 40 = 200/5
⇒ 40 = 40
⇒ LHS = RHS

(8) 2x/3 + 1 = 7x/15 + 3
2x/3 - 7x/15 = 3 - 1
⇒ (10x - 7x)/15 = 2
⇒ 3x = 2 × 15
⇒ 3x = 30
⇒ x = 10
Putting the value of x in RHS and LHS we get,
(2×10)/3 + 1 = (7×10)/15 + 3
⇒ 20/3 + 1 = 70/15 + 3
⇒ (20 + 3)/3 = (70 + 45)/15
⇒ 23/3 = 115/15
⇒ 23/3 = 23/3
⇒ LHS = RHS

(10) 3m = 5 m – 8/5

Exercise 2.4

1. Amina thinks of a number and subtracts 5/2 from it. She multiplies the result by 8. The result now obtained is 3 times the same number she thought of. What is the number?

Answer

Let the number be x.
A/q,
(x - 5/2) × 8 = 3x
⇒ 8x - 40/2 = 3x
⇒ 8x - 3x = 40/2
⇒ 5x = 20
⇒ x = 4
Thus, the number is 4.

2. A positive number is 5 times another number. If 21 is added to both the numbers, then one of the new numbers becomes twice the other new number. What are the numbers?

Answer

Let one of the positive number be x then other number will be 5x.
A/q,
5x + 21 = 2(x + 21)
⇒ 5x + 21 = 2x + 42
⇒ 5x - 2x = 42 - 21
⇒ 3x = 21
⇒ x = 7
One number = x = 7
Other number = 5x = 5×7 = 35
The two numbers are 5 and 35.

3. Sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 9. When we interchange the digits, it is found that the resulting new number is greater than the original number by 27. What is the two-digit number?

Answer

Let the digit at tens place be x then digit at ones place will be (9-x).
Original two digit number = 10x + (9-x)
After interchanging the digits, the new number = 10(9-x) + x
A/q,
10x + (9-x) + 27 = 10(9-x) + x
⇒ 10x + 9 - x + 27 = 90 - 10x + x
⇒ 9x + 36 = 90 - 9x
⇒ 9x + 9x = 90 - 36
⇒ 18x = 54
⇒ x = 3
Original number = 10x + (9-x) = (10×3) + (9-3) = 30 + 6 = 36
Thus, the number is 36.

4. One of the two digits of a two digit number is three times the other digit. If you interchange the digits of this two-digit number and add the resulting number to the original number, you get 88. What is the original number?

Answer

Let the digit at tens place be x then digit at ones place will be 3x.
Original two digit number = 10x + 3x
After interchanging the digits, the new number = 30x + x
A/q,
(30x + x) + (10x + 3x) = 88
⇒ 31x + 13x = 88
⇒ 44x = 88
⇒ x = 2
Original number = 10x + 3x = 13x = 13×2 = 26

5. Shobo’s mother’s present age is six times Shobo’s present age. Shobo’s age five years from now will be one third of his mother’s present age. What are their present ages?

Answer

Let the present age of Shobo be x then age of her mother will be 6x.
Shobo's age after 5 years = x + 5
A/q,
(x + 5) = 1/3 × 6x
⇒ x + 5 = 2x
⇒ 2x - x = 5
⇒ x = 5
Present age of Shobo = x = 5 years
Present age of Shobo's mother = 6x = 30 years

6. There is a narrow rectangular plot, reserved for a school, in Mahuli village. The length and breadth of the plot are in the ratio 11:4. At the rate ₹100 per metre it will cost the village panchayat ₹75000 to fence the plot. What are the dimensions of the plot?

Answer

Let the length of the rectangular plot be 11x and breadth be 4x.
Rate of fencing per metre = ₹100
Total cost of fencing = ₹75000
Perimeter of the plot = 2(l+b) = 2(11x + 4x) = 2×15x = 30x
Total amount of fencing = (30x × 100)
A/q,
(30x × 100) = 75000
⇒ 3000x = 75000
⇒ x = 75000/3000
⇒ x = 25
Length of the plot = 11x = 11×25 = 275
Breadth of the plot = 4x = 4×25 = 100

7. Hasan buys two kinds of cloth materials for school uniforms, shirt material that costs him ₹50 per metre and trouser material that costs him ₹90 per metre. For every 3 meters of the shirt material he buys 2 metres of the trouser material. He sells the materials at 12% and 10% profit respectively. His total sale is ₹36,660. How much trouser material did he buy?

Answer

Let 2x m of trouser material and 3x m of shirt material be bought by him.
Selling price of shirt material per metre = ₹ 50 + 50×(12/100) = ₹ 56
Selling price of trouser material per metre = ₹ 90 + 90×(10/100) = ₹99
Total amount of sale = ₹36,600
A/q,
(2x × 99) + (3x × 56) = 36600
⇒ 198x + 168x = 36600
⇒ 366x = 36600
⇒ x = 36600/366
⇒ x =100
Total trouser material he bought = 2x = 2×100 = 200 m.

8. Half of a herd of deer are grazing in the field and three fourths of the remaining are playing nearby. The rest 9 are drinking water from the pond. Find the number of deer in the herd.

Answer

Let the total number of deer be x.
Deer grazing in the field = x/2
Deer playing nearby = 3/4(x - x/2) = 3/4×x/2 = 3x/8
Deer drinking water = 9
A/q,
x/2 + 3x/8 + 9 = x
⇒ (4x + 3x)/8 + 9 = x
⇒ 7x/8 + 9 = x
⇒ x - 7x/8 = 9
⇒ (8x - 7x)/8 = 9
⇒ x = 9×8
⇒ x = 72

9. A grandfather is ten times older than his granddaughter. He is also 54 years older than her. Find their present ages.

Answer

Let the age of granddaughter be x and grandfather be 10x.
Also, he is 54 years older than her.
A/q,
10x = x + 54
⇒ 10x - x = 54
⇒ 9x = 54
⇒ x = 6
Age of grandfather = 10x = 10×6 = 60 years.
Age of granddaughter = x = 6 years.

10. Aman’s age is three times his son’s age. Ten years ago he was five times his son’s age. Find their present ages.

Answer

Let the age of Aman's son be x then age of Aman will be 3x.
A/q,
5(x - 10) = 3x - 10
⇒ 5x - 50 = 3x - 10
⇒ 5x - 3x = -10 + 50
⇒ 2x = 40
⇒ x = 20
Aman's son age = x = 20 years
Aman age = 3x = 3×20 = 60 years

बूढ़े भारत में भी आई फिर से नयी जवानी थी,
गुमी हुई आज़ादी की कीमत सबने पहचानी थी,
दूर फिरंगी को करने की सबने मन में ठानी थी।

चमक उठी सन सत्तावन में, वह तलवार पुरानी थी,
बुंदेले हरबोलों के मुँह हमने सुनी कहानी थी,
खूब लड़ी मर्दानी वह तो झाँसी वाली रानी थी।।

कानपूर के नाना की, मुँहबोली बहन छबीली थी,
लक्ष्मीबाई नाम, पिता की वह संतान अकेली थी,
नाना के सँग पढ़ती थी वह, नाना के सँग खेली थी,
बरछी, ढाल, कृपाण, कटारी उसकी यही सहेली थी।

अभ्यास

1. कविता से

नीची लिखी पंक्तियाँ पढ़कर उत्तर दो।

क. "नया संसार बसाएँगे, नया इंसान बनाएँगे।"
      तुम्हारे विचार से नया संसार बसाने और नया इंसान बनाने की जरूरत है या नहीं? कारण भी बताओ।

उत्तर

मेरे विचार से नया संसार बसाने और नया इंसान बनाने की जरूरत नहीं है। हमें खुद में बदलाव लाना होगा। नैतिक मूल्य, अच्छी बातें और ज्ञान अर्जित कर हम अच्छा इंसान बन सकते हैं जिससे हम बेहतर संसार का निर्माण कर सकते हैं।

ख. "रोज त्योहार मनाएँगे।" तुम्हारे विचार से क्या रोज त्योहार मनाना उचित है? क्यों?

उत्तर

मेरे विचार से रोज त्योहार मनाना उचित नहीं है चूँकि त्योहार में लोग अपने काम को छोड़ आनंद में मग्न रहते हैं। अगर हम रोज त्योहार मनाएँगे तो लोग काम नहीं कर पाएँगे और उनका समय बर्बाद होगा। लोगों के जीवन में धीरे-धीरे आनंद समाप्त हो जाएगा। रोज त्योहार मनाने से इनका महत्व भी खत्म हो जाएगा।

ग. "सौ-सौ स्वर्ग उतर आएँगे, सूरज सोना बरसाएँगे। दूध पूत के लिए बदल देंगे तारों की चाल"
क्या ऊपर लिखीं बातें संभव हों सकती हैं? कारण भी पता करो।

उत्तर

नहीं, ऊपर लिखीं बातें पूरी तरह से संभव नहीं हो सकती हैं चूँकि सूरज एक गैस का गोला है, उससे सोना नहीं बरस सकता है। अगर हम मेहनत करें तो हम धरती पर सौ स्वर्ग उतारने के जगह इसे स्वर्ग बना सकते हैं। हम तारों की चाल नहीं बदल सकते हैं।

घ. कवि 'हम धरती के लाल' ही क्यों कहना चाहते हैं?

उत्तर

कवि मनुष्य और धरती के सम्बन्ध को स्थापित करने के लिए हमें 'धरती का लाल' कहना चाहते हैं। वे चाहते हैं कि हम धरती के प्रति अपनी जिम्मेदारियों को निभाएँ।

2. वाक्य बनाओ

'सुख-स्वपनों के स्वर गूँजेंगे।'
इसमें 'स' अक्षर बार-बार आया है।
तुम भी नीचे लिखे वर्णों से वाक्य बनाओ। ध्यान रखो कि उस वर्ण से शुरू होने वाले तीन शब्द तुम्हारे वाक्य में हों।

क. क  ............................
ख. त   ............................
ग. द   ............................

उत्तर

क. कथनी और करनी में कितना फर्क था?
ख. तुम्हारी तबियत कब तक ठीक होगी?
ग. दस का दम देखा है मैंने।

पृष्ठ संख्या: 59

3. शब्द सज्जा

क. 'हम नया भूगोल बनाएँगे।'
ऊपर लिखी पंक्ति में भूगोल शब्द की जगह और कौन-कौन से शब्द आ सकते हैं?
नीचे दिए गए बॉक्स में से छाँटो और कुछ शब्द स्वयं सोचकर लिखो।

संसार, कल्पना, पौधा, चेतना, ज़माना, दुनिया, इतिहास

उत्तर

संसार, दुनिया, इतिहास, विश्व, देश

क. देश
► देश

ख. धरती
► पृथ्वी

ग. दूध
► दूध

घ. जनता
► लोग

ड़. त्योहार
► पर्व

च. इंसान
► मनुष्य

4. सोचो और बताओ

कवि एक नया संसार बसाना चाहता है जहाँ मानव की मेहनत पूजी जाए, जहाँ जनता में एकता हो, जहाँ सब समान हों, जहाँ सभी सुखी हों। तुम्हें अपने संसार में ऊपर लिखीं बातें नज़र आतीं हैं या नहीं? इन बातों के होने या ना होने का क्या कारण है?

उत्तर

नहीं, हमारे संसार में ऊपर लिखीं बातें पूरी तरह से नज़र नहीं आतीं। कई लोग मेहनत करने के बावजूद पीछे रह जाते हैं। यहाँ आपस में लोग झगड़ा कर रहे हैं। कोई व्यक्ति बहुत धनवान हो तो किसी को भोजन भी प्राप्त नहीं हो रहा है। यहाँ सभी लोग सुखी नहीं हैं इसलिए दंगे-फ़साद भी हो रहे हैं।

ख. तुम भी अपने संसार के बारे में कल्पनाएँ जरूर करते होंगे। अपने सपने की दुनिया के बारे में बताओ।

उत्तर

हाँ, मेरी भी अपने सपनों की दुनिया है। वह दुनिया पूरी तरह से प्रदुषण मुक्त है। चारों तरफ पेड़-पौधे लगे हैं। कोई व्यक्ति भूखा नहीं है और सभी लोग समान हैं।

5. कैसे

बताओ तुम ये काम कैसे करोगे? शिक्षक से भी सहायता लो।

क. समय को राह दिखाना
► हम अपने कामों की समय सारणी बनाकर तय वक्त में उस काम को खत्म कर सकते हैं। आने वाले वक्त की योजना बना सकते हैं। इस तरह हम समय को राह दिखा सकते हैं।

ख. जनता को एक करना
►हम लोगों को मिलजुलकर रहना सिखाकर जनता को एक कर सकते हैं।

ग. तारों की चाल बदल देना
► हम अपनी मेहनत से अपनी किस्मत बदल कर तारों की चाल सकते हैं।

घ. नया भूगोल बनाना
► लोगों को एकजुट कर विश्व की रेखा बदल देंगे जिससे एक नया भूगोल बनेगा।

ड़. नया इंसान बनाना
► अपनी बुरी आदतों को दूर कर तथा कमियों को पूरा कर हम एक नया इंसान बन सकते हैं।

Introduction

• Natural Resources are anything that people can use which comes from nature such as land, water, air etc

Land

• One of the most important natural resources

• Covers about thirty percent of the total area of the earth’s surface, however all parts are not habitable.

• The reason behind uneven distribution of population in different parts of the world is mainly due to varied characteristics of land and climate.

• Areas which are normally sparsely populated or uninhabited: rugged topography, steep slopes
of the mountains, low-lying areas susceptible to water logging, desert areas, thick forested areas.

• Areas which are densely populated: Plains and river valleys offer suitable land for agriculture.

Land Use

• The different purpose such as agriculture, forestry, mining, building houses, roads and setting up of industries for which land is used is known as land Use.

• The factors that determine use of land are:
→ Topography
→ Soil
→ Climate
→ Minerals
→ Availability of water

• Important determinants of land use pattern:
→ Human factors such as population
→ Technology

• Land Division on the basis of private land and community land:

→ Private land is owned by individuals

→ Community land is owned by the community for common uses like collection of fodder, fruits, nuts or medicinal herbs. Also called common property resources.

• Population and demands are increasing but land is limited. Many constructional activities are going on also agricultural land is expanding. These are leading to land degradation, landslides, soil erosion, desertification which are major threats to the environment.

Conservation of Land Resources

Causes of degradation of land resources: Large scale destruction of forest cover and fertile
land due to increasing demand.

How to check present rate of degradation of land resources:
→ Afforestation
→ Land reclamation
→ Regulated use of chemical pesticide and fertilisers
→ Checks on overgrazing

Soil

Definition: The thin layer of grainy substance covering the surface of the earth is called soil.

• Soil is made up of organic matter, minerals and weathered rocks found on the earth. Landforms determine the type of soil.

• The right mix of minerals and organic matter make the soil fertile.

Soil Profile

Factors of Soil Formation

• Major Factors:
→ Nature of the parent rock
→ Climate

• Other Factors:
→ Topography
→ Role of organic material
→ Time

Below chart (from NCERT Book) explain the various factors of soil formation:


Degradation of Soil

• Soil erosion and depletion are the major threats to soil as a resource.

• Factors for soil degradation:
→ Deforestation
→ Overgrazing
→ Overuse of chemical fertilisers or pesticides
→ Rain wash
→ Landslides
→ Floods.

Soil Conservation

• Methods of Soil conservation

→ Mulching: The uncovered ground between plants is covered with a layer of organic matter like straw. Helps in retaining soil moisture.

Mulching
→ Contour barriers: Stones, grass, soil are used to build barriers along contours. Trenches(Channels) are made in front of the barriers to collect water.

→ Rock dam: Rocks are piled up to slow down the flow of water. This prevents gullies and further soil loss.

→ Terrace farming: Terraces are developed on the steep slopes so that flat surfaces are available to grow crops which helps in reducing surface run-off and soil erosion.

→ Intercropping: Different crops are grown in alternate rows and are sown at different times to protect the soil from rain wash.

→ Contour ploughing: Ploughing parallel to the contours of a hill slope to form a natural barrier
for water to flow down the slope.

→ Shelter belts: In the coastal and dry regions, rows of trees are planted to check the wind movement to protect soil cover.

Water

Important and renewable resource.

Three-Fourth's of earth's surface is covered with water, therefore the earth is called 'water planet'.

Ocean cover two-thirds of the earth’s surface whose water is saline and not fit for human consumption.

• Fresh water accounts for only about 2.7 percent from which 70 percent occurs as ice sheets and glaciers in Antarctica, Greenland and mountain regions which are inaccessible.

•  Only 1 percent of freshwater is available and fit for human use which is found as ground water, as surface water in rivers and lakes and as water vapour in the atmosphere.

• Fresh water is therefore, the most precious substance on earth as Water can neither be added nor subtracted from the earth.

• An abundance of water only seems to vary because it is in constant motion, cycling through the oceans, the air, the land and back again, through the processes of evaporation, precipitation and run-off. This is known as Water Cycle.

Use of water by Humans: not only for drinking and washing but also for agriculture, industries, generating electricity through reservoirs of dams are the other usages.

Factors responsible for shortages in supply of fresh water:
→ Increasing population
→ Rising demands for food and cash crops
→ Increasing urbanisation 
→ Rising standards of living
These leads to either drying up of water sources or water pollution.

Problems of Water Availability

Areas facing shortages in fresh water supply: Most of Africa, West Asia, South Asia, parts of western USA, north-west Mexico, parts of South America and entire Australia.

Water shortage may be a result of variation in seasonal or annual precipitation or the scarcity is caused by over-exploitation and contamination of water sources.

Conservation of Water resources


Major Contaminants: Discharge of untreated or partially treated sewage, agricultural chemicals and industrial effluents in water bodies.

How to control Water pollution:
→ Forest and other vegetation slow the surface runoff and replenish underground water.
→ Water harvesting also save surface runoff.
→ The canals should be properly lined to minimise losses by water seepage.
→ Using of sprinklers effectively irrigate the area by checking water losses through seepage and evaporation. In dry regions with high rates of evaporation, drip or trickle irrigation is very useful.

Natural Vegetation and Wildlife

• The narrow zone of contact between the lithosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere where natural vegetation and wildlife exist is called Biosphere.

 • Ecosystem is a network of interactions among organisms, and between organisms and their environment living in a specific space.

Usefulness of Plants:
→ Provide timber
→ Give shelter to animals
→ Produce oxygen we breathe
→ Protects soils so essential for growing crops
→ Act as shelter belts
→ Help in storage of underground water,
→ Provide us fruits, nuts, latex, turpentine oil, gum, medicinal plants and also the paper.

• Wildlife includes animals, birds, insects as well as the aquatic life forms.

Usefulness of Wildlife:
→ Provide us milk, meat, hides and wool.
→ Insects like bees provide honey
→ Help in pollination of flowers
→ Play important role as decomposers in the ecosystem.
→ Birds feed on insects and act as decomposers as well.

Vulture due to its ability to feed on dead livestock is a scavenger and considered a vital cleanser of the environment.

Distribution of Natural Vegetation

• The growth of vegetation depends primarily on temperature and moisture.

Major Vegetation of the World

• Major vegetation types of the world:
→ Forests
→ Grasslands
→ Scrubs
→ Tundra

Heavy rainfall = Huge Trees. Forests flourish in the areas having abundant water supply.

• As the amount of moisture decreases the size of trees and their density reduces.

• In the regions of moderate rainfall short stunted trees and grasses grow forming the grasslands of the world.

• In dry areas of low rainfall, thorny shrubs and scrubs grow which have deep roots and leaves have thorny and waxy surface to reduce loss of moisture by transpiration.

• Tundra vegetation of cold Polar Regions comprise of mosses and lichens.

Division of forests depending on when they shed their leaves

• Division of forests depending on when they shed their leaves:

→ Evergreen forests: do not shed their leaves simultaneously in any season of the year.

→ Deciduous forests shed their leaves in a particular season to conserve loss of moisture through transpiration.

• Deciduous Forests further classified on their location in different latitudes.
→ Tropical
→ Temperate

• Forest cover all over the world is vanishing rapidly.

Conservation of Natural Vegetation and Wildlife

• Plants give shelter to the animals and together they maintain the ecosystem.

• Changes of climate and human interferences can cause the loss of natural habitats for the plants and animals.

• Many species have become vulnerable or endangered and some are on the verge of extinction.

Factors (Natural and Man-made) responsible for the process of extinction of great natural resources:
→ Deforestation
→ Soil erosion
→ Constructional activities
→ Forest fires
→ Tsunami and landslides

Poaching activities are also increasing that result in a sharp decline in the number of particular species. The animals are poached for collection and illegal trade of hides, skins, nails, teeth, horns as well as feathers.

Some animals who are poached: Tiger, lion, elephant, deer, black buck, crocodile, rhinoceros, snow leopard, ostrich and peacock.

Measures for Natural Vegetation and Wildlife:
→ National parks, wildlife sanctuaries, biosphere reserves are made to protect our natural vegetation and wildlife.
→ Conservation of creeks, lakes, and wetlands is necessary to save the precious resource from depletion.
→ Awareness programmes like social forestry and Vanamohatasava should be encouraged at the regional and community level.
→ School children should be encouraged for bird watching and visiting nature camps so that they appreciate the habitat of varied species.
→ Killing and Hunting of birds and animals should be banned.

• In India, killing of lions, tigers, deers, great Indian bustards and peacocks have been banned.

• An international convention CITES has been established that lists several species of animals and birds in which trade is prohibited.

Glossary

• Weathering: The breaking up and decay of exposed rocks, by temperature changes, frost action, plants, animals and man.

• National Park: A natural area designated to protect the ecological integrity of one or more ecosystems for present and future generations.

Internet

Internet: It is a global network of computer networks. It comprises of millions of computing devices that carry and transfer volumes of information from one device to the other.

WWW

History of World Wide Web (WWW):
→ Invented by Tim Berners-Lee in 1989.
→ By the end of 1990, the first Web page was served. 
→ In April 1993, the World Wide Web technology was available for anyone to use on a royalty-free basis.

Definition of WWW: The World Wide Web (WWW) is an internet based service, which uses common set of rules known as Protocols, to distribute documents across the Internet in a standard way.

Difference between Internet and WWW

• The Internet is a massive network of networks. It connects millions of computers together globally, forming a network in which any computer can communicate with any other computer as long as they are both connected to the Internet. Information that travels over the Internet does so via a variety of languages known as protocols.

• The World Wide Web or simply Web, is a massive collection of digital pages to access information over the Internet. The Web uses the HTTP protocol, to transmit data and allows applications to communicate in order to exchange business logic. The Web also uses browsers, such as Internet Explorer, Google Chrome etc. to access Web pages that are linked to each other via hyperlinks.

Search Engines

Definition: Search engines are the programs which are needed to extract the information from the internet.

Working of Search Engines:

Web crawling: Web search engines work by storing information about many web pages. These pages are retrieved by the program known as Web crawler - which follows every link on the site. Web crawler may also be called a Web spider.

Indexing: Indexing also known as web indexing, it stores data to facilitate fast and accurate information retrieval. It is done by program called Indexer.

Searching: A web search query fetches the result from the web search engine entered by the user to meet his information needs.

Examples: Google, Yahoo, Bing, Ask

Web Server

Definition: A server is a computer that provides data to other computers. The entire structure of the Internet is based upon a client-server model.

Uses:
→ The most common use of web servers is to host websites.
→ The web server also deliver web pages to clients.

• The communication between the client node and server node takes place using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP).

Server Software

• A web server commonly known as HTTP server or application server is a program that serves content using the HTTP protocol.

• The server content served by the web server can be static content or dynamic content.

Different Server Software:

→ Apache web server - the HTTP web server: This is free and open source web server and can be installed and made to work on almost all operating systems including Linux, Unix, Windows, FreeBSD, Mac OS X and more. Almost, 60% of the web server machines run the Apache web server.

Apache Tomcat: This is free and open source web server that can run on different operating systems like Linux, Unix, Windows, Mac OS X, Free BSD. It was developed to support servlets and JSP scripts. It can serve as a standalone server.

Lighttpd: It is a free and open source web server distributed with the FreeBSD operating system. This is fast, secure and consumes much less CPU power. Lighttpd can also run on Windows,
Mac OS X, Linux and Solaris operating systems.

Jigsaw: Jigsaw (W3C’s Server) is introduced by the World Wide Web Consortium. It is open source and free and can run on various platforms like Linux, Unix, Windows, Mac OS X Free BSD etc. Jigsaw is written in Java thus can run CGI scripts and PHP programs.

Services Provided by the Servers

• Many of the servers are based on Cloud computing which is popular amongst the researchers, scientists & entrepreneurs.

Cloud Computing is distributed computing over a network, and has the ability to run a program or application on many connected computers at the same time.

• Various services provided by the Web server are:

Cost Efficient: Web server is the most cost efficient method to use, maintain and upgrade. ALso, one-time-payment, pay-as-you-go and other scalable options available, which makes it very reasonable for the company.

Resource Sharing: Web Server has the capability to store unlimited information such as Google Drives, Cloud computing etc. The space where the data can be stored is shared by the other users at the same time like hard disk can be shared on physical network as LAN.

Data Sharing: With the help of web servers one can easily access the information from anywhere, where there is an Internet connection using Google docs such as Documents, Excel sheets, Drawings, Powerpoint presentations etc.

→ Backup and Recovery: The entire process of backup and recovery much simpler than other traditional methods of data storage.

Types of Server

Mail Server: Mail Servers provides a centrally-located pool of disk space for network users to store and share various documents in the form of emails.

Application Server: An application server acts as a set of components accessible to the software developer through an API defined by the platform itself.

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Server: FTP uses separate control and data connections between the client and the server. FTP users may authenticate themselves in the form of a username and password, but can connect anonymously if the server is configured to allow it.

Database Server: A database server is a computer program that provides database services to other computer programs or computers using client-server model.

Domain Name System (DNS) Server: A name server is a computer server that hosts a network service for providing responses to queries.

Function fo DNS Server:
♣ Primary function is to translate human- memorable domain names and hostnames into the corresponding numeric Internet Protocol (IP) addresses.
♣ The secondary function of DNS is to recognize a name space of the Internet, used to identify and locate computer systems and resources on the Internet.

Web Site

Definition: The collection of web pages on the World Wide Web that is accessed by its own Internet address is called a Web site.

Difference between Website and Portal

→ Web portal is a medium by which users access the resources, while a website is a destination in itself.

• Minimal Scroll: Use less scrolling as  users do not like scrolling the page instead they need to see all the information on one screen.

Consistent Layout: Always use a consistent layout in the whole website which will help you to retain the theme of the site.

Cross-platform/browser Compatibility: Create a website which should be platform independent as many web browsers are being used by the users.

WebPage

Definition: A Web page also known as Electronic Page, is a part of the World Wide Web. It is the basic unit of every Web site. It is a combination of text and graphics.

Static Web Page: Also called flat page or stationary page. It is a web page that is delivered to the user exactly as stored. A static web page displays the same information for all users, such versions are available and the server is configured to do so.

Dynamic Web Page: It is a web page which needs to be refreshed every time whenever it
opens in any of the web browsers to display the updated content of the site.

How Web Page works
→ The server receives the request for a page sent by your browser.
→ The browser connects to the server through an IP Address; the IP address is obtained by translating the domain name.
→ In return, the server sends back the requested page.

Difference between Webpage and Website
A web page is one single page of information, while a website is made up of a number of different web pages connected by links known as Hyperlinks.

Web Browser

• A browser is a software that lets you view web pages, graphics and the online content.

What browsers do: Browser software convert HTML and XML into readable documents.

Examples: Google Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera and UC Browser.

Tool Bar: The Tool Bar is much like the Menu Bar stretching from left to right across the top of the screen.

Web Browser Tool Bar

→ Back button : Helps to open the previously opened website.
→ Back history : Helps to bring up a list of the sites visited.
→ Forward button : This button will only be available once you have used the Back button at least once. It helps to take you to the page you just left when you clicked on the Back button.
→ Forward history : That brings up a list of the sites you have visited and then used the Back button to return.
→ Stop : Helps to stop the current download.
→ Refresh : Gives the most recent version of the page that we are on.
→ Home : Helps you to instantly get back home page (first page).
→ Search : Helps to retrieve the specified files using web search engine.
 → Favourites : Helps to open up the most frequently visited sites.
→ History : Helps you to see where you have been on the Internet.

SSL: The Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol, uses Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and Transport Control Protocol (TCP) for managing the security of a message transmission on the Internet.
→ The “sockets” term refers to the sockets method of passing data back and forth between a client and a server program in a network or between program layers in the same computer.
→ SSL uses the public-and-private key encryption system, which also includes the use of a digital certificate.

Blogs

URL

Definition: URL’s, or ‘uniform resource locators’, are the web browser addresses of internet pages and files.

Format of a url: Protocol://site address/path/filename

Parts of URL:
→ Protocol which ends with a ‘//:’
→ Host computer which ends with web extensions such as .com,.org etc.
→ Filename or page name which displays the related information.

Examplehttp://www.banks.com/login/password.htm

• An Absolute URL is independent or free from any relationship. It specifies the exact location of a file or directory on the internet. Each absolute URL is unique, which means that if two URLs are identical, they point to the same file.

→  For example: http://www.developers.com/images/hardware.gif

In above URL specifies an image file hardware.gif located in the images directory, under
domain name www.developers.com.

• A Relative URL is targeted to a file or directory in relation to the present file or directory. The relative URLs are shorter than absolute URLs and hence the file size of the web page would reduce, if you use the former.

For example:
If we want to include the image file hardware.gif stored in the images directory of www.developers.com domain on this page using an absolute URL. The <img> tag for this image display will be as follows: using a relative url in an <IMG> tag.
<img src=”../images/hardware.gif” width=”...” height=”...” />

Protocols

• Definition: A protocol is a set of rules that governs the communication between computers on a network.

• The most popular protocols used on internet are the World Wide Web, FTP, Telnet, Gopherspace, instant messaging, and email.

Types of Protocols:

TCP/IP: TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) is the basic point-to-point meaning each communication is from one point (or host computer) in the network to another point or host computer communication protocol on the Internet.

♠ It is used as a communication protocol in all types of networks.
♠ TCP/IP is a two-layer protocol. 

HTTP stands for HyperText Transfer Protocol, is a set of standards that allows users of the World Wide Web to exchange information found on web pages on internet.

♠ It defines how messages are formatted and transmitted, and what actions Web servers and browsers should take in response to various commands.
♠ The HTTP provides a standard for Web browsers and servers to communicate.

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard protocol used on network to transfer the files from one host computer to another host computer using a TCP based network, such as the Internet.

♠ FTP uses separate control and data connections between the client and the server.
♠ To use FTP server, users need to authenticate themselves using a sign-in protocol, using a username and password, but can connect anonymously if the server is configured to allow it.
