The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "A system of rotating crops with legume or grass pasture to improve soil structure and fertility is called," we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Question**: The question is asking for a specific agricultural practice that involves rotating crops, particularly with legumes or grasses, to enhance soil quality. 2. **Analyze the Options**: - **Counter Farming**: This method involves planting in rows and is typically used in hilly areas. It does not specifically mention rotation with legumes or grasses. - **Strip Farming**: This involves dividing the field into strips and alternating crops in those strips to maintain soil fertility. However, it does not specifically focus on legumes or grasses. - **Shifting Agriculture**: This practice involves cultivating a field for a period and then leaving it fallow for natural vegetation to restore soil fertility. It does not emphasize the use of legumes or grasses. - **Lay Farming**: This method specifically involves alternating the cultivation of legumes or grasses with other crops to improve soil fertility. Legumes are known for their ability to fix nitrogen in the soil, which enhances soil fertility. 3. **Identify the Correct Answer**: Based on the analysis, the correct answer is **Lay Farming**. This practice directly corresponds to the description in the question. 4. **Conclusion**: The system of rotating crops with legume or grass pasture to improve soil structure and fertility is called **Lay Farming**. ### Final Answer: Lay Farming ---

A Crop rotation decreases the soil fertility. R High concentration of minerals is required as fertilizers.

A frame of reference that is accelerated with respect to an inertial frame of reference is called a non-inertial frame of reference. A coordinate system fixed on a circular disc rotating about a fixed axis with a constant angular velocity omega is an example of non=inertial frame of reference. The relationship between the force vecF_(rot) experienced by a particle of mass m moving on the rotating disc and the force vecF_(in) experienced by the particle in an inertial frame of reference is vecF_(rot)=vecF_(i n)+2m(vecv_(rot)xxvec omega)+m(vec omegaxx vec r)xxvec omega . where vecv_(rot) is the velocity of the particle in the rotating frame of reference and vecr is the position vector of the particle with respect to the centre of the disc. Now consider a smooth slot along a diameter fo a disc of radius R rotating counter-clockwise with a constant angular speed omega about its vertical axis through its center. We assign a coordinate system with the origin at the center of the disc, the x-axis along the slot, the y-axis perpendicular to the slot and the z-axis along the rotation axis (vecomega=omegahatk) . A small block of mass m is gently placed in the slot at vecr(R//2)hati at t=0 and is constrained to move only along the slot. The distance r of the block at time is
