aptitude

question; you have two flask one having 3 litre capacity  and the other having 4 litre capacity and you need to show a way to get 2 litre water out of these two

such a questions can be solved within 20 second by modeling the situation mathematically:
 let us consider we have two input 3 and 4 and with arithmatic you need to get 2 (in arithmatic we  are allwed to perform only additon and substraction because it is easy to visualise  these in real life...)

now 4-3=1 ,now we have have generated one but we cant do 1+1=2 because we have generated only one 1 . so....3-1=2 is valid so we got the required answer 2.
                                                                                              convert it into physical situation, subtraction means you are pouring one fill into other unfill and addition means you are pouring filled into other filled. so 4-3 suggest either you pour 4 litre into three or three litre into 4 litre ,since 4 litre cant be poured into 3 so we have to pour 3 into 4 litre flask. then 3-1. when you poured  3 into 4 litre flask 4 litre flask became 1 litre flask but here you cant pour 1 litre into three litre (common sense as it contains already 3 litre and has capacity of 4 litre) so you need to pour 3 litre into 1 litre(that is 4 litre flask) so the water left in the flask is 3-1=2 litre your required answer

evaporation

what causes water to evaporate every fluid (pure) has a definite vapor pressure at a fixed temperature , now if any how the partial pressure of the fluid is less then the the vapor pressure of the fluid then the fluid starts evaporating to attain the partial pressure equal to the  vapor pressure of the fluid, and then the equillibrium is reached and evaporation stops.                              basically at the top of the fluid there is a random motion of the fluid molecule due to the difference between the addhesve and cohesive forces, some molecule say 'n' goes into the vapour phase and some strikes back say m such that n>m then after the above explained condition is achieved then the constraint m=n. conclusion whenever there is the fluid in liquid state is  present then in that system partial pressure is exactly to the ...

USA violating international cyber Law

Any law not only cyber security, related should not be violated for any purpose, although we can change the rule following the proper guide lines enshrined within the law. The main reason to this argument is simple, as any law gains its strength till it is followed once violated irrespective of the reason weakens its sole purpose. Now in today’s digital world information is the most precious thing we have to keep as a individual or as a nation. Violating cyber laws creates a big dent on our future’s security as no one knows the value of information which one thinks to be null today, in future. Violating cyber laws by USA can lead to big brother syndrome for rest of the country who are not that technically advanced in digital arena. And it will eventually lead to mistrust impacting international ties which may in extreme scenario result in conservative approach by various nation in economic world , mostly by the countries having trade deficit with USA. This segregation of ec...
