Okay.why is it showing intel hd 500 also in its display adapters along with nvidia?

Switchable graphics. Its quite common in modern laptops. It will use the lower powered Integrated GPU of the Processor until it detects software that needs the add-in GPU.
The software detection isn't perfect and sometimes you need to add the program to the list in control center or often you can just rt click the program and select 'Run with Nvidia'

edit - It does this to save power and lengthen battery time.
