Jasmine, the princess of Agrabah is enjoying the festival with her father. Since child- hood, Jasmine has been very fond of shooting games and she has become really good at it. After hitting at various shops she finally found a shooting place. The shopkeeper is smart and has changed the rules of the game. The shopkeeper has placed a sequence of n water balloons each with an integer written on it. The rules of the game are that the shooter can choose any balloon of the sequence (let's denote on it as ak) and remove it by shooting. During this step, all elements equal to a_(k)-1 and a_(k)+1 should also be shot down and removed from the sequence. This step will give the player a_(k) score. At each step, only one occurrence of a_(k) is deleted. The player should apply this step, again and again, to get as much score as possible. Example Seq: 1 2 3 In the first step choose element 3, delete it and delete 3-1=2 and 3+1=4 (4 not avail- able). The remaining array contains element only 1. now pick this and the array becomes empty now. therefore, maximum score obtained is 3+1=4 Given seq: 1 2 2 2 3 4 5 1 2 2 5 4 6 3 2 9 9 8 8 2 3 3 5 1 5 2 4 3 2 1 2 6 Find the maximum score that Jasmine can get?

In the figure shown, a balloon is pressed against a wall. It is in equilibrium and maximum compressed state. vecF= force of balloon on hand of man, vecF_2= force of balloon on wall, vecF_3= friction, vecF_4= weight of balloon. Which of the following statements are correct:

In the following item, passage consists of six sentences. The first and sixth sentence are given in the beginning as S_1 and S_6 . The middle four sentences in each have been jumbled up. These are labelled P, Q, R and S. You are required to find out the proper sequence of the four sentences and indicate your answer accordingly on the Answer Sheet. S_1 : The woman who lives a normal life is able to check the swelling conceit and egotism of her menfolk simply because her outlook is so different. S_6 : And both ranges of interest make her what only fools deny her to be, namely, essentially practical, her eye is steadily fixed on the concrete thing, and she mistrusts that chasing of the wild goose which is one of the chief pastimes and delights of man. P : She is primarily concerned with little ordinary things, the minutiae of talk and behaviour for example, on the one hand, and with very big ones, the colossal elementary facts of life, such as birth, mating and death on the other. Q : The first are personal and particular, whereas the second, those enormous facts about life which women are never allowed to lose sight of, are, of course, universal, meaning just as much in the Fiji Islands as they do here. R: Her interests are at once narrower and wider than those of men. S : It is more personal and yet more impersonal. The proper sequence should be :
