Raju goes to the vegetable vendor in the market. He notices that the needle of the balance is not in the centre of the balance. He takes the stuff, gets its mass checked in an electric balance and gets back to the vendor asking him to change the balance.
(a) How would you treat the vendor if you were in Raju’s place?
(b) Which values of Raju are noteworthy?
(c) Why is it important to check the weight of substance before buying it?
(a) I would do the same Raju has done. I would ask the vendor to change the balance and check if it is done by mistake. If the vendor does not agree, I shall complain about him to the concerned authorities.
(b) Raju shows values like observant, scientific temper.
(c) The weight of balance should be checked before buying a substance to ensure if we are not paying more for a lesser quantity.
