Identify the practical measure from the following to control air pollution in the metropolitan cities in India. Choose the most appropriate option.
- Public Transport with Ring Railway
- Carpooling with Metro Rail
- Metro Rail with CNG Buses
- Ring Railway with CNG Buses
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Air pollution in metropolitan cities primarily arises due to vehicular emissions and industrial activities. To effectively control air pollution, practical measures must focus on reducing the use of fossil fuel-driven vehicles and promoting cleaner and efficient modes of transport.
- Metro Rail: Provides mass rapid transit reducing the number of individual vehicles on the road, leading to lower emissions.
- CNG Buses: Use compressed natural gas which burns cleaner than petrol or diesel, significantly reducing air pollutants.
Combining Metro Rail and CNG Buses offers a practical, sustainable solution for mitigating air pollution in cities.
Other options, although beneficial, either lack the emphasis on cleaner fuel (like Ring Railway) or on reducing individual vehicle use as effectively as Metro and CNG.

- Consider a cylindrical conductor of length \( l \) and area of cross-section \( A \). Current \( I \) is maintained in the conductor and electrons drift with velocity \( \vec{v}_d \, (|\vec{v}_d| = \frac{eE}{m} \tau) \), where symbols have their usual meanings. Show that the conductivity of the material of the conductor is given by \[ \sigma = \frac{n e^2 \tau}{m}. \]
