The dipeptide given below is used as: 
- A Detergent
- B Preservative
- C Sweetening agent
- D Antioxidant (Drug)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Sweetening agent
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The given dipeptide is an artificial sweetening agent and is known a 'aspartame'. The structure of aspartame is as follows: It is methyl cster of dipeptide derivative, derived from phenyl alanine and aspartic acid. It is about 150-200 times sweetener than sucrose, but is…

- Consider a parallel plate capacitor with plates in the shape of square and in \(X Y\)-plane. The gap between the plates is filled with dielectric material. The dielectric constant \(k\) varies with \(X\)-axis as \(k(x)=\left[1+\left(\frac{x}{L}\right)^\alpha\right]\), where \(\alpha\) is a constant. Let \(C_d\) and \(C_a\) are capacitance in the presence of dielectric and air, respectively. If the ratio \(\frac{C_d}{C_a}=\frac{7}{6}\), then the value of \(\alpha\) must beTS EAMCET 2018 Hard
