Age problems (for practice) | class 10 mathematics | advguruji | Physics Advocate

Linear Equations

Q1.
Ten years ago, father was twelve times as old as his son and ten years hence, he will be twice as old as his son will be. Find their present ages.
Ans. Present age of father = 34 years
         Present age of son = 12 years


Q2.
Three years ago, Priya's mother was six times older than her. Four years from now, Priya's mother will be one year older than thrice her age. Find the present age of Priya and her mother.
Ans. Present age of Priya = 8 years
      Present age of mother = 33 years


Q3.
Five years ago, Rakesh was five times younger than his mother. Ten years from now, his age will be half of his mother's age. Find the present age of Rakesh and his mother.
Ans. Present age of Rakesh = 10 years
     Present age of mother = 30 years


Q4.          (equation in one variable)
A is elder to B by two years. A's father F is twice as old as A. B is twice as old as his sister S. If the ages of the father and sister differ by 40 years, find the age of A.
Ans. 26 years
Comment down your thoughts :-)
For "fraction based problems"


BEST OF LUCK.. to my dear students..

Wind Energy | wind generators | advantages and disadvantages of Wind Energy by - advguruji

Moving air is called wind. Wind has energy. The energy possessed by wind is due to its high speed. So we can say the wind possesses kinetic energy . It is the kinetic energy of wind which is utilized for doing work. Solar energy or sun's energy is responsible for the blowing of wind, due to the uneven heating of earth by the sun in different regions. Now let's discuss about what is a wind mill. Wind mill The energy of wind is harnessed by using a windmill. A windmill consists of big sized table fan like blades which are fixed over the top of a tall pole in such a way that they are free to rotate when the fast moving wind strikes on the blades of the windmill. It makes the blades rotate continuously. The rotatory motion of the windmill is then used to do Mechanical work through a shaft connected to the rotating blades. The traditional use of wind energy has now been modified by the improvement in technology to generate electricity through wind powered generators. Wind Generator ...
