1 cubic meter contains 500 bricks
The Standard size of the 1st class brick is
190mm
x 90mm x
90mm and motor joint should be 10mm thick
So brick with motor=200 x 100 x 100.
Volume of 1st class brick = 0.19 x 0.09 X 0.09 =
0.001539
cu.m
Volume of 1st class brick with motor =0.2 x 0.1 x0.1=0.002 cu.m
No. on bricks per 1cu.m= 1/volume of1st class
brick with
motor
=1/0.002
= 500 no’s of bricks

A rope having length 100cm.You can form any
shape using this rope (Example: Triangle,
Rectangle, etc.,). Which shape will covers
maximum area
1 Newton = o.101971 kg
1 mm2 = 0.01 cm2
1 cm2 = 100 mm2
1 mm2 = 20 N
100 mm2 = 2000N
1 cm2 = 2000N
2000 N = 203.942 kg
So 20 N/ mm2 = 203.942 kg / cm2
RATIO IS 1:1.5:3
