Q:

A triangle has a perimeter 13. The two shorter sides have integer lengths equal to x and x + 1. Which of the following could be the length of the other side?

A) 4 B) 6
C) 8 D) None of the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 6

Explanation:

The measure of the third side of a triangle must lie between the sum and the difference of the other two sides. Using this fact along with the answer choices, we can eliminate the wrong answers. 

 

    • Option A  cannot be correct because 4 would not be the longest side.(sides 4, 5, and 4)   

 

    • Option B could be correct because the other two sides would be 3 and 4.  

 

    • Option C cannot be correct because this third side would be greater than the sum of the other two sides.

Q:

Two trains of equal length, running with the speeds of 60 and 40 kmph, take 50 seconds to cross each other while they are running in the same direction. What time will they take to cross each other if they are running in opposite directions  ?

A) 10 sec B) 11 sec
C) 12 sec D) 8 sec
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 10 sec

Explanation:

Relative Speed = 60 -40 = 20 x 5/18 = 100/18

Time = 50

Distance = 50 x 100/18 = 2500/9

Relative Speed = 60 + 40 = 100 x 5/18

Time = 2500/9 x 18/500 = 10 sec.

Q:

Mirage is an example of

A) Reflection of light & Refraction of light B) Dispersion of light
C) Total Internal Reflection D) Refraction of light & Total Internal Reflection of light
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Refraction of light & Total Internal Reflection of light

Explanation:

A Mirage is a naturally occurring optical phenomenon in which light rays bend to produce a displaced image of distant objects or the sky.




      • It is caused due to Total internal Reflection.

 

      • It is an optical illusion observed in deserts or hot summer days due to which a person sees a pond of water some distance ahead of him in which the surrounding objects appear inverted.

How Mirage Forms::

 

1. The temperature of other layers of atmosphere goes on decreasing as we go up.
2. Therefore density and refractive index of air changes as one goes up.
3. Thus a ray of light,gets refracted more and more away from the normal.
4. At a particular angle when a ray of light exceeds critical angle, total internal reflection takes place and ray of light gets reflected in the same medium.
5. when the reflected ray reaches our eye, it appears as coming from tree or sky .
6. Hence the inverted image of tree creates an impression from a pond of water.
