In the absence of a partnership agreement, interest on loans provided by a partner is charged at 6% per annum. The loan was advanced on 1st January, 2023, and the year ends on 31\textsuperscript{st} March, 2023, making the duration 3 months. \[ \text{Interest} = 3,00,000 \times \frac{6}{100} \times \frac{3}{12} = ₹ 4,500. \] Hence, the correct answer is (B).

A ladder of fixed length \( h \) is to be placed along the wall such that it is free to move along the height of the wall.
Based upon the above information, answer the following questions:
(iii) (b) If the foot of the ladder, whose length is 5 m, is being pulled towards the wall such that the rate of decrease of distance \( y \) is \( 2 \, \text{m/s} \), then at what rate is the height on the wall \( x \) increasing when the foot of the ladder is 3 m away from the wall?
