confirm the answer is correct or not with a third man

thank u frnd

question  35 d is the correct answer

To show each sequential step and their movement the spiral is divided into four
quadrants by two lines perpendicular to each other intersecting at the centre. This also
results in four cardinal points.
• The spiral moves forward in clockwise direction.
• Lowest end of the vertical line is called nadir – literally means the lowest point.
• Upper end of the vertical line is called Zenith –the highest point.
• Left end of the horizontal line is called Ascendency i.e., going upwards.
• Right end of the horizontal line is called descendent – means going downwards.

Table 5.1: Ranganathan’s Spiral (Source: Sharma, 1990)
Quadrant Span/Situation Phase of Research Method/Tool
I N –A Empirical Experience and observationSouth-West servation/literature survey
II A-Z Hypothesizing Intitution & Imagination North-West
III Z-D Deductive Intellection/ Logic/StatisticsNorth-East
IV D-N Verification Applications/ Mathematics


Four sections thus formed by the interesting lines are called quadrants. First quadrant
is on lower-left side (i.e. South-West). Moving clockwise this way the fourth quardrant
is on the lower-right (i.e. South-East).Working of the Spiral
At the nadir is the problem to be solved. In this first quadrant (called empirical phase is Nadir)
data is collected empirically and the problem may be refined further.  Inexperimental method the data is collected by means of many meters, scopes and other
instruments. Data may be qualitative or quantitative. In the second quadrant (called
hypothesis phase ie Ascend) the data is collected, tabulated, classified and analysed. It is knownas data processing. From the analysed data cause-effect inferences are drawn or stateof-
the-art i.e. ground situation is assessed. Here hypothesis is drawn by using inductive
logic and intuition. In the third quadrant (called deductive phase ie Zenith) laws are deduced with
the help of deductive logic. The fourth quadrant is also known as the verification phase ie.Descendent Here the laws formulated in the third quadrant are tested and verified; and further some higher generalisation may be drawn. Statistical techniques may be used for verification
and to support or disprove the hypothesis.

Thank u very much for ur valuable reply sir
