The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to compare the temperatures reported by Sania and Trapi. 1. **Identify the temperatures:** - Sania reported a temperature of -4°C in Leh. - Trapi reported a temperature of -2°C in Tawang. 2. **Understanding negative integers:** - In the context of integers, a smaller negative number indicates a lower temperature. - For example, -4 is less than -2 because when you move left on the number line, the values decrease. 3. **Compare the temperatures:** - We can visualize the temperatures on a number line: ``` -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 ``` - Here, -4°C (Sania's temperature) is to the left of -2°C (Trapi's temperature), indicating that -4°C is colder than -2°C. 4. **Conclusion:** - Since -4°C is colder than -2°C, we can conclude that Leh (where Sania was) is cooler than Tawang (where Trapi was). 5. **Select the correct option:** - Based on our comparison, the correct answer is that Leh is cooler than Tawang. **Final Answer:** Leh is cooler than Tawang. ---

In a tennis match Maria Sharapova returns an incoming ball at an angle that is 4° below the horizontal at a speed of 15 m//s . The ball was hit at a height of 1.6 m above the ground. The opponent, Sania Mirza, reacts 0.2 s after the ball is hit and runs to the ball and manages to return it just before it hits the ground. Sania runs at a speed of 7.5 m//s and she had to reach 0.8 m forward, from where she stands, to hit the ball. (a) At what distance Sania was standing from Maria at the time the ball was returned by Maria? Assume that Maria returned the ball directly towards Sania. (b) With what speed did the ball hit the racket of Sania? [g = 9.8 m//s^(2)]
