In a development plan of a city, a contractor has taken a contract to construct certain houses for which he needs building materials like stones, sand etc. There are three firms A, B, C that can supply him these materials. At one time these firms A, B, C supplied him 40, 35 and 25 truck loads of stones and 10, 5 and 8 truck load of sand respectively.

To find the sum of three numbers 14, 27 and 13. We can have two ways. We may add 27 and 13 to get 40 and then add 14 to get the sum 54. Thus This can be done for any three numbers. This property is known as the associativity of the addition of numbers. Express this property which we have already studied in the chapter on Whole Numbers, in a general way, by using variables a,b and c.

A current balance is a device to measure magnetic forces. It is constructed from two parallel coils, each with an average radius of 12.5 cm. The lower coil rests on a balance, it has 20 turns and carries a constant current of 4.0 A. The upper coil, suspended 0.314 cm above the lower coil, has 50 turns and a current that can be varied. The reading of the balance changes as the. magnetic force on the lower coil changes. What current is needed in the upper coil to exert a force of 1.0 N on the bottom coil?
