Combinational Logic Circuits: Adders, Subtractors & MUX
Half Adder
Half Adder: A half adder is a basic combinational logic circuit used to add two single-bit binary numbers. It produces two outputs called Sum and Carry. It is called a half adder because it does not consider any carry input from a previous stage.
Inputs and Outputs
- Inputs: A, B
- Outputs: Sum (S), Carry (C)
- Operation performed: A + B
Working Principle
- When both input bits are 0, the Sum and Carry are 0.
- When one input is 1 and the other is 0, the Sum is 1 and Carry is 0.
- When both inputs are 1,
Calculating Gravitational Force and Work on a Spacecraft
Problem Q2: Spacecraft Dynamics in the Earth-Moon System
At a certain instant, the Earth, the Moon, and a stationary 1250-kg spacecraft lie on the vertices of an equilateral triangle whose sides are 3.84 x 105 km in length.
Given Parameters
- Mass of the Earth ($M_E$): 5.97 x 1024 kg
- Mass of the Moon ($M_M$): 7.35 x 1022 kg
- Total Mass ($M_{Total}$): 6.04 x 1024 kg (Verification required)
The simplest way to approach this problem is to find the gravitational force between the spacecraft and the center of

Literature, Human Rights, and Social Resistance
The relationship between literature and human rights is deeply interconnected, as literature has historically functioned as a powerful medium to represent, question, and challenge violations of human dignity, freedom, and justice. While human rights provide a legal and moral framework for protecting individuals, literature humanizes these abstract principles by narrating lived experiences of suffering, resistance, and hope. Through storytelling, poetry,

The Development of the Colonial Judicial System in India
The British judicial system in India developed gradually through experiments, trials, and administrative reforms. Every major judicial event or reform reflected the British objective of establishing political control, standardizing laws, and projecting the superiority of English legal principles. However, the system also exposed several critical contradictions:
- Racial discrimination
- Conflict between Company officials and Indian traditions
- The
