11. Scientific explanation for what?The Himalayas separate the Indian subcontinent from the Tibetanplateau and represent sediments that accumulated in the Tethys Seaprior to the collision of Indo-Australian plate with the Eurasian plate.The Tethys sediments could be easily uplifted into lofty mountains as a

result of this collision that began in the Upper Cretaceous period ~70m years ago, when the Indo-Australian Plate, moving at about 15 cm peryear, collided with the Eurasian Plate. About 50 m years ago, this fast-moving Indo-Australian plate had completely closed the Tethys Seaand uplifted the sediments accumulated over there. The Arakan Yomahighlands in Myanmar and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands in the

Bay of Bengal were also formed as a result of this collision. Thiscollision also produced arcuate bends in the structural trend of theHimalayas in the north-west and north-east, these bends being calledsyntaxial bends. These two points of acute inflexion constitute themajor syntaxial bends in the Himalayas.

12.One theory says that the term bears its roots in the Second World Warwhere trucks were often run on kerosene when there was a shortage ofpetrol. Kerosene, being highly unstable in nature, would cause thetrucks to explode at the slightest accident. Hence a warning would bepainted on the back saying "___________ Kerosene". Gradually this

became a norm and is still seen on most trucks even today.Another theory says that,The first mode is that of X: if the following vehicle wants to overtake a

vehicle ahead of it from the left side, then the X should be blown. Thisway the vehicle leading is advised of the vehicle passing, and does notmake a sudden left turn.

The second mode is that of Y: if the following vehicle is exactly behindthe leading vehicle, the leading vehicle is Y with this.The third mode is that of Z: if the following vehicle wishes to overtakeon the right side, it may do so without blowing its horneffectively,the leading vehicle is saying, "Z proceed."
