C. 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

When two pink marbles are taken without replacement then the total number of marbles in the bag are reduced to 21 marbles. So the blue marble, which are currently in total 6 marbles, is taken out of the total of 21 marbles. The calculation of which is done as below:

Probability of Next Marble to be blue

= Blue Marble / Total Marbles in the bag

= 6 / 21

= 2 / 7

Hence, the correct option is C. 2/7

F=ma

where F=force

m=mass

a=acceleration

Here,

F=4300

a=3.3m/s2

m=F/a

    =4300/3.3

    =1303.03kg

Approximately it is aqual to 1300kg

Let the father's age be x and son's be y

10 years before-

Father age=x-10

sons age=y-10

Given,

x-10=10(y-10)

x-10=10y-100

Given present age of father=40

therefore,

x=40

40-10=10y-100

10y-100=30

10y=130

y=130/10

y=13

Therefore present age of son=13years
