6. In December 2000 Girish Wagh was given a brief

by Ravi Kant to create a new very light truck line that would add to current truck range. It was to be economical and to take on the three-wheeled cargo auto rickshaws in the Indian market.Based on this brief Wagh approached users of three-wheel cargo rickshaws and got their feed back on ****'s future four-wheel cargo vehicle. The feedback indicated the need for an economical vehicle that could take light loads over short distances. Additionally the feedback also revealed that future owners would prefer owning a four-wheeler cargo vehicle for the perceived prestige it would offer over a three-wheeled vehicle.

X has created a new mini segment in India. Priced between 2.25 to 3.35 lakhs INR, the company aims to convert three-wheeler users to four-wheelers.

1. Two magazine publishers, Peter Heldt of The

Horseless Age, and Horace Swetland of The Automobile were advocates of the concepts for X. Heldt wrote an editorial in June 1902 in which he said, "Now there is a noticeable tendency for automobile manufacturers to follow certain accepted lines of construction, technical questions constantly arise which seek solution from the cooperation of the technical men connected with the industry. These questions could best be dealt with by a technical society. The field of activity for this society would be the purely technical side of automobiles.

4. The first reaction is the decomposition of NaN3 under high

temperature conditions using an electric impulse. This impulse generates to 300 °C temperatures required for the decomposition of the NaN3 which produces Na metal and N2 gas. Since Na metal is highly reactive, the KNO3 and SiO2 react and remove it, in turn producing more N2 gas.

The reason that KNO3 is used rather than something like NaNO3 is because it is less hygroscopic. It is very important that the materials used in this reaction are not hygroscopic because absorbed moisture can de-sensitize the system and cause the reaction to fail.

The final reaction is used to eliminate the K2O and Na2O produced in the previous reactions because the first-period metal oxides are highly reactive. These products react with SiO2 to produce a silicate glass which is a harmless and stable compound

City, which will also include a 100,000 seating capacity international cricket stadium, 18-hole golf course, 25,000 seat field hockey stadium and a sports academy.

The planned hairpin at turn seven was removed, and the track at turn three was widened to allow drivers to take different lines throughout the corner.
