Ajay had a 1 cm piece of gum. He put it through repeater machine given below and it came out `1/(100,000)` cm long. What is the missing value?

उत्तर
Since, Ajay put a 1 cm piece of gum and came out `1/100000`.
So, it is shrinking machine.
Hence, it is a `(xx 1^1/10)^5` type shrinking machine.
Thus, missing value is 5.

- Which planet has about the same mass as earth?
Suppose you have a stretching machine which could stretch almost anything. For example, if you put a 5 metre stick into a (× 4) stretching machine (as shown below), you get a 20 metre stick. Now if you put 10 cm carrot into a (× 4) machine, how long will it be when it comes out?

Two machines can be hooked together. When something is sent through this hook up, the output from the first machine becomes the input for the second. Which two machines hooked together do the same work a (× 102) machine does? Is there more than one arrangement of two machines that will work?

Similarly, repeater machine is a hypothetical machine which automatically enlarges items several times. For example, sending a piece of wire through a (× 24) machine is the same as putting it through a (× 2) machine four times. So, if you send a 3 cm piece of wire through a (× 24) machine, its length becomes 3 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 48 cm. It can also be written that a base (2) machine is being applied 4 times.

What will be the new length of a 4 cm strip inserted in the machine?
What will the following machine do to a 2 cm long piece of chalk?

In a shrinking machine, a piece of stick is compressed to reduce its length. If 9 cm long sandwich is put into the shrinking machine below, how many cm long will it be when it emerges?

Neha needs to stretch some sticks to 252 times their original lengths, but her (× 25) machine is broken. Find a hook-up of two repeater machines that will do the same work as a (× 252) machine. To get started, think about the hookup you could use to replace the (× 25) machine.

Find two repeater machines that will do the same work as a (× 81) machine.
Find three machines that can be replaced with hook-ups of (× 5) machines.
