35. What is the difference between jquery.size() and jquery.length?
jQuery .size() method returns number of element in the object. But it is not preferred to use the size() method as jQuery provide .length property and which does the same thing. But the .length property is preferred because it does not have the overhead of a function call.
36. What is the difference between $(‘div’) and $(‘<div/>’) in jQuery?

eq() returns the element as a jQuery object. This method constructs a new jQuery object from one element within that set and returns it. That means that you can use jQuery functions on it.
get() return a DOM element. The method retrieve the DOM elements matched by the jQuery object. But as it is a DOM element and it is not a jQuery-wrapped object. So jQuery functions can’t be used. Find out more here.
39. How do you implement animation functionality?
The .animate() method allows us to create animation effects on any numeric CSS property. This method changes an element from one state to another with CSS styles. The CSS property value is changed gradually, to create an animated effect.
Syntax is:
Hide Copy Code
(selector).animate({styles},speed,easing,callback)
styles: Specifies one or more CSS properties/values to animate.
duration: Optional. Specifies the speed of the animation.
easing: Optional. Specifies the speed of the element in different points of the animation. Default value is “swing”.
callback: Optional. A function to be executed after the animation completes.
Simple use of animate function is,
Hide Copy Code
$(“btnClick”).click(function(){
$(“#dvBox”).animate({height:”100px”});
});
40. How to disable jQuery animation?
Using jQuery property “jQuery.fx.off”, which when set to true, disables all the jQuery animation. When this is done, all animation methods will immediately set elements to their final state when called, rather than displaying an effect.
