Metamorphic rocks are formed from other rocks that are changed because of heat or pressure. They are not made from molten rock – rocks that do melt form igneous rocks instead. Earth movements can cause rocks to be deeply buried or squeezed. As a result, the rocks are heated and put under great pressure. Rock that was once one form of rock but has changed to another under the influence of heat, pressure, or some other agent without passing through a liquid phase. Metamorphic rocks were once igneous or sedimentary rocks, but have been changed (metamorphosed) as a result of intense heat and/or pressure within the Earth's crust. They are crystalline and often have a “squashed” (foliated or banded) texture.

Services provided by wholesalers are as follows:
- Buying and assembling : The wholesaler buys the product from the manufacturer and collects the same at one place and supplies goods to the retailers according to their requirement.
- Storage function : The wholesaler also performs the storage function. The goods are purchased by the wholesalers from the manufacturers and stored at warehouses in order to meet the demand of retailers. The wholesalers act as bridge between the production and consumption of goods.
- Breaking the bulk : The wholesaler purchases goods from manufacturers in bulk and avails discounts. He sells goods in small quantities to the retailers which saves the retailers from maintaining large stocks.
- Advertisement : A wholesaler undertakes advertising and sales promotion of the product which automatically result in the increase in sales.
- Market information : Wholesalers inform the retailers about the introduction of new products in the market. He also gets feedback from the retailers about the needs and preferences of customers. He passes the information to the producer to make necessary changes in the products.

Isomerism is the phenomenon in which more than one compounds have the same chemical formula but different chemical structures. Chemical compounds that have identical chemical formulae but differ in properties and the arrangement of atoms in the molecule are called isomers. Therefore, the compounds that exhibit isomerism are known as isomers.
The word “isomer” is derived from the Greek words “isos” and “meros”, which mean “equal parts”. This term was coined by the Swedish chemist Jacob Berzelius in the year 1830.

The plate movements are classified into three types:
(i) Some plates come towards each other and form convergent boundaries.
(ii) Some plates move away from each other and form divergent boundary.
(iii) At times, they may also move horizontally past each other and form transform boundary.
When two plates come together, they are known as convergent plates. They are also known as constructive plates. When two plates move far away from each other, they are known as divergent plates. When two plates coming towards each other collide or burst pass, they are known as transform plate. The movement of plates causes volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, formation of mountains, etc.

In physics Coriolis effect is a deflection of moving objects when they are viewed in a rotating reference frame In a reference frame with clockwise rotation, the deflection is to the left of the motion of the object; in one with counter-clockwise rotation, the deflection is to the right.
The Coriolis effect is the one that makes low pressures rotate anti-clockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern. At the equator, the forces cancel each other out. That's why the direction of rotation changes between the two hemispheres.
The Coriolis effect is greatest at the poles and zero at the equator because of the earth's spherical shape. If the surface of the rotating object is flatter, the Coriolis effect will be noticed more.

Here, Mass of machine gun , M = 20 kg
mass of each bullet , m = 35 kg = 0.035 kg
velocity of bullet υ=400m/sυ=400m/s
Number of bullets/sec (n) =400/60=20/3
Force required = rate of change of linear momentum of bullets =n(mυ)/t = 20/3 × 0.035×400/1 =93.3N

Humanism: Humanism was one of the movements that started in Italy in fourteenth century. Italian universities were centres of legal studies. Francesco Petrarch is known as ‘Father of Humanism’. He suggested a shift from the study of law to the ancient Roman culture and texts. The term ‘humanism’ was first used by Roman lawyer and essayist Cicero. Humanists thought that they were restoring ‘true civilisation’ after centuries of darkness, for they believed that a ‘Dark Age’ had set in after the collapse of the Roman Empire. The period from the fifth to fourteenth centuries was the Middle Ages, and the Modern Age started from fifteenth century.

Factors which led to the beginning of Industrial Revolution in England were:
- The beginning of Renaissance and Reformation led to awakening among the people in Europe. Inventions made by the British scientists brought a revolution in the industries of Great Britain. Invention of the “Spinning Jenny’ by James Hargreaves in 1769 made the speed of spinning faster. Invention of ‘Water Frame’ by Richard Arkwright produced stronger and harder yarn than that of the Spinning Jenny and ushered in the factory system.
- England had a large colonial empire. She procured raw materials from colonies at cheaper rates for her industries. India was one of the countries from where she purchased raw materials like cotton at extremely cheap rates. She not only brought raw materials at cheap rates but also sold her manufactured goods in the colonial markets. Thus availability of markets led to the flourishing of industries in England.
- Several raw materials like iron and coal were available in England. Further, she was a supreme naval power. She was able to procure raw materials from other parts of the world by ships. Moderate climate of England helped in the development of textile industries.
- As England began to reap huge benefits from the international trade, industries in England began to expand bringing about increase in production of goods and materials. Napoleonic Wars had damaged the trade and industry of the continental countries. But since these wars were never fought in Britain, the long period of peace prevailed which led to the development of industrial production in England.
- The decline of feudalism resulted in large number of unemployed peasants. They came to cities in search of jobs and thus labourers were easily available for factories in England.
- The use of charcoal and tar enabled the construction of roads in many European countries. In 1804, locomotive engine was manufactured by George Stephenson. This improved transport system in England.
- The invention of steam engine by James Watt led to the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. In 1813, the railways ran with the help of steam.
- Many protestant artisans of Spain and France migrated to England for the fear of religious persecution in their own countries. The English government provided them with shelter and monetary help. Their skills helped in the development of industries in England.

Metamorphic rocks arise from the transformation of existing rock types, in a process called metamorphism, which means "change in form". ... Some examples of metamorphic rocks are gneiss, slate, marble, schist, and quartzite. Sedimentary rocks, formed from the products of weathering by cementation or precipitation on the Earth's surface. Metamorphic rocks, formed by temperature and pressure changes inside the Earth. All three types of rock make up the Earth's lithosphere, the outermost layer. ... Quick cooling lavas are called volcanic rocks.
