Q:

A man went downstream for 28 km in a motor boat and immediately returned. It took the man twice as long to make the return trip. If the speed of the river flow were twice as high, the trip downstream and back would take 672 minutes. Find the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the river flow.

A) 12 km/hr, 3 km/hr B) 9 km/hr, 3 km/hr
C) 8 km/hr, 2 km/hr D) 9 km/hr, 6 km/hr
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 9 km/hr, 3 km/hr

Explanation:

Let the speed of the boat = p kmph

Let the speed of the river flow = q kmph

From the given data,

2 x 28p + q = 28p - q

 

=> 56p - 56q -28p - 28q = 0

=> 28p = 84q

=> p = 3q.

Now, given that if

283q + 2q + 283q - 2q = 67260=> 285q + 28q = 67260=> q = 3 kmph=> x  =3q = 9 kmph

 

Hence, the speed of the boat = p kmph = 9 kmph and the speed of the river flow = q kmph = 3 kmph.

Q:

Brightness of bulb depends on voltage or current?

A) Current B) Voltage
C) Both A & B D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Both A & B

Explanation:

Brightness of bulb depends on both voltage and current. The brightness depends on power.

Since we know that  Power (P) = Voltage x Current = V I

So whether you increase the current or the voltage the brightness will increase.

 

Example Illustration:

 If you connect a long bulb and a round bulb in series, the long bulb glows but the round bulb does not. Both of them have the same current flowing through them (they are in series) but the long bulb has a greater voltage across it because it has more resistance (even though V= IR is not obeyed exactly, voltage drop does depend on the resistance). If you connect a round bulb and a long bulb in parallel, however, it is the round bulb that is brighter because now the voltage across both bulbs is the same but the current is larger through the round bulb (smaller resistance).

 

Hence, the brightness of a bulb depends on power i.e, both voltage and current.

Q:

A sum of money becomes 7/6 of itself in 3 years at a certain rate of simple interest. The rate per annum is ?

A) 45/7 % B) 50/9 %
C) 51/7 % D) 47/ 9 %
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 50/9 %

Explanation:

Let sum = S. Then, amount = 7S/6

S.I. = 7S/6 - S = S/6; Time = 3 years.

Rate = (100 x S) / (S x 6 x 3) = 5 5/9 = 50/9 %.
