2. Question
The `Electromagnetic Air Lift System` is a technology primarily used for launching aircraft from warships. To explain, these systems are employed in warships, particularly aircraft carriers to catapult airplanes into the air, enabling them to take off in a limited space. This system uses electromagnetic power instead of the traditional steam, generating a smoother and more controlled push and reducing wear and tear on aircraft.
The Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) is a type of electromagnetic catapult system developed for the United States Navy. EMALS uses stored kinetic energy and solid-state electrical power conversion. It can launch both larger and lighter aircraft than a steam piston-driven device.

3. Question
Aluminium oxides is classified as an amphoteric oxide because it reacts with both acids and bases. When aluminium oxide comes into contact with an acid, it works as a base, neutralizing the acid. Conversely, when it encounters a base, it behaves as an acid, neutralizing the base.

The Mahavamsa (5th century CE) is a meticulously preserved historical record of Sri Lanka written in the manner of an epic poem in Pali. It covers the history of Sri Lanka from its legendary origins to the reign of Mahasena of Anuradhapura, encompassing the era from the arrival of Prince Vijaya from India in 543 BCE to his rule and was later modified by other writers. It was written about the 5th century CE by a Buddhist monk at the Mahavihara temple in Anuradhapura. (Statement 1 is incorrect and statement 2 is correct)
It spans the era from the 6th century BC to the early 4th century AD and focuses on the history of Buddhism and dynasty succession in Ceylon rather than the island’s political or social history. (Statement 3 is incorrect).
Buddhism arrived in the Indonesian archipelago in the early 1st century AD through trade along the Maritime Silk Road. The religion’s history is closely linked to Hinduism, as many Indian-influenced empires were founded around the same time.
