The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem using a Venn diagram, we will analyze the statements step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the Statements 1. **S1**: If a man is a bachelor, he is unhappy. - This implies that all bachelors are included in the set of unhappy people. 2. **S2**: If a man is unhappy, he dies young. - This implies that all unhappy people are included in the set of people who die young. 3. **S**: All bachelors die young. - This is what we need to prove based on the previous statements. ### Step 2: Draw the Venn Diagram 1. **Draw three circles**: - Let Circle A represent **Bachelors**. - Let Circle B represent **Unhappy people**. - Let Circle C represent **People who die young**. 2. **Place Circle A inside Circle B**: - Since all bachelors are unhappy, Circle A (Bachelors) is a subset of Circle B (Unhappy people). 3. **Place Circle B inside Circle C**: - Since all unhappy people die young, Circle B (Unhappy people) is a subset of Circle C (People who die young). ### Step 3: Analyze the Relationships - From the Venn diagram: - Since Circle A is inside Circle B, and Circle B is inside Circle C, this means that Circle A (Bachelors) is also inside Circle C (People who die young). ### Step 4: Conclusion - Therefore, we conclude that all bachelors die young, which validates statement S. ### Final Answer The argument is valid; all bachelors die young. ---

With the usual notations , check if the following equation S_(t) = u + (1)/(2) a ( 2t -1) is dimensionally correct or not.

Two coherenet source of sound S_(1) and S_(2) produce sound waves of the same wavelength lambda = 1 m , in phase , S_(1) and S_(2) are placed 1.5 m a part ( see fig). A listener , loacted at L , directly in fornt of S_(2) finds that the intensity is at a minimum when he is 2 m away form S_(2) . The listener moves aways form S_(1) keeping his distance for S_(2) fixed . The adjacent maximum of inesity is observed when the listener is at a distane d from S_(1) . Then d is

In Young's doulbe-slit experiment the separation between two coherent sources S_(1) and S_(2) is d and the distance between the source and screen is D. In the interference pattern, it is found that exactly in front of one slit, there occurs a minimum. Then the possible wavelengths used in the experiment are

Let S_1 and S_2 be the two slits in Young's double slit experiment. If central maxima is observed at P and angle S_1 P S_2 = theta , ( theta is small) find the y-coordinates of the 3rd minima assuming the origin at the central maxima. ( lambda = wavelength of monochromatic light used).

A man is coming down an incline of angle 30^@ . When he walks with speed 2(sqrt(3)) m s^-1 he has to keep his umbrella vertical to protect himself from rain. The actual speed of rain is 5 ms^-1 . At angle with vertical should he keep his umbrella when he is at rest so that he does not getb drenched ? .

A man can swim in still water with a speed of 3 m//s x and y axis are drawn along and normal to the bank of river flowing to right with a speed of 1 m//s .

A man is standing on a road and observes that rain is failing at angle 45^(@) with the vertical. The man starts running on the road with constant acceleration 0.5m//s^(2) . After a certain time from the start of the motion, it appears to him that rain is still falling at angle 45^(@) with the vertical, with speed 2sqrt(2)m//s . Motion of the man is in the same vertical plane in which the rain is falling. Then which of the following staement(s) are true.

While conduction the Young's double slit experiment, a student replaced the two slits with a large opaque plate in the x-y plane containing two small holes that act as two coherent point sources (S_(1),S_(2)) emitting light of wavelength 600nm. The student mistakenly placed the screen parallel to the x-z plane (for zgt0) at a distance D=3 m from the mid-point of S_(1) , S_(2) , as shown schematically in the figure. The distance between the sources d=0.6003 mm . The origin O is at the intersection of the screen and the line joining S_(1)S_(2) . Which of the following is (are) true of the intensity pattern of the screen?
