Bheja Fry question

 This Bheja Fry question I came across on TV.

Question 

If a clock strikes 1 time for first hour, 2 times for second hour and like that, then how many times it will strike on a new years day  ???

Answer 

A clock strikes 1 time at 1.00 am

                               2  times at 2.00 am

....

....

                                12 times at 12.00 pm, (  noon  )

Again strikes  1 time at 1.00 pm

                             2 times at 2.00 pm 

.....

....

                               12 times at 12.00 am ( mid night   )

 

Total strikes from 1.00 am to 12 pm

1 + 2 + 3 +...............+ 12  =  78 times 

Similarly, 

Total strikes from 1  pm to 12am

Clock strikes  78 times. 

Totally strikes from both the periods is 

 78   +     78      =    156 times.

So, the clock strikes 156   times on new year day   !!!!

Understanding the behavior of cat....

 Cats communicate with humans using body language and vocalization. Cats meow at humans and meows vary depending on the context !!!!

Let's try to decode them.

1.  Cat's slow eye blinking likely to indicate a positive emotional state.

2.   If the cat don't want to be touched , it will freeze, move away, flatten their ears or hiss.

If they feel they have no other option left, they scratch or bite !!!!

3.   It is better to allow cats to approach on their terms.

       If the cat approach with tail up, it is giving a friendly signal.

        If the cat approach with its tail swishing from side to side, that signals annoyance.

       If the cats walk away from us, that means they are not interested.

        If they rub their head against you, that means they want to continue the conversation.

4.  If there are more than one cat in the house, tensions between them is common.

     But it is not always physical fighting. Signs of inter cat tensions include prolonged staring, blocking the use of resources etc.

5.  Many cats prefer to be the only cat in the household. They don't cope well with other cats. 

6.   Outdoor access is very important for cats with supervision.
