Q:

A passenger train is moving at a speed of 120 km/hr. If the length of the train is 101 meters, how long will it take to cross a railway platform 154 meters long ?

A) 6.24 sec B) 6.58 sec
C) 7.325 sec D) 7.65 sec
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 7.65 sec

Explanation:

Here total distance = 154 + 101 = 255 mts
Given speed = 120 kmph = 120x5/18 m/sec
Hence, Time = d/s = 255x18/120x5 = 7.65 sec

Q:

Intermolecular forces in HCl are

A) Hydrogen bonding B) Dipole-dipole
C) Dispersion force D) All the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) All the above

Explanation:

Intermolecular forces :

The forces of attraction present in between the molecules or atoms or compounds is termed as intermolecular forces.


The molecule HCl is composed of hydrogen and chlorine atom. There is high difference in electronegativities therefore, it is polar in nature. The H end of HCl is permanently slightly positive charge. The Cl end of HCl has a permanent slight negative charge. the "H" in one molecule is attracted to the "Cl" in a neighbor. The intermolecular force is weak compared to a covalent bond. But this dipole-dipole interaction is one of the stronger intermolecular attractions.

It also has hydrogen bonding and dispersion forces. 

Dispersion forces are the weakest forces which are present in between all molecules or atoms.
Hydrogen bonds are present in molecules having at least one H-A bond where A is the strong electronegative atom (mainly F, Cl and N).

Laser printing is an electrostatic digital printing process. It produces high-quality text and graphics by repeatedly passing a laser beam back and forth over a negatively charged cylinder called a "drum" to define a differentially charged image.

 

Compared to inkjet printers which use ink for printing laser printers are more expensive as they use toner which lasts for long.

Q:

To what kingdom do common bacteria belong

A) Archaea B) Protista
C) Eubacteria D) All the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Eubacteria

Explanation:

There are two kingdoms of bacteria. They are

1. Eubacteria  and 

2. Archaea

 

The members of these two kingdoms appear similar in shape and appearance, even under the extreme magnification of the electron microscope . However, they are very different from each other in a number of molecular and biochemical aspects. It is these differences that have resulted in the microorganisms being grouped into separate kingdoms.

 

For example, eubacteria contain the rigid, stress-bearing network known as the peptidoglycan . The only exceptions are the bacteria from the genera Mycoplasma and Chlamydia. Archaebacteria do not contain peptidoglycan. Instead, they contain a different structure that is called pseudomurein.

 

The common bacteria belongs to Eubacteria kingdom.

Q:

In a triangle ABC, angle 'a' is the smallest one & A+7B = 112. Find the range of value 'c' ?

A) 138 to 164 B) 125 to 147
C) 148 to 158 D) 152 to 164
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 152 to 164

Explanation:

A+7B=112

it is clear that A = 14, then it becomes A>=B, but A is smallest angle) given
so, range of A is 0.0001 to 13.9999 ( I am taking upto 4 decimal places)
so, range of B becomes 14 to 16 ( after rounding off to 4 decimal places)
so, range of C becomes 152 to 164 ( after rounding off to 4 decimal places)

Q:

In an election between two candidates 70% of the voters cast their votes, out of which 2% of the votes were declared invalid. A candidate got 7203 votes which was 60% of the total valid votes. Find the total number of voters enrolled in that election.

A) 18050 B) 17500
C) 17000 D) 7203
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 17500

Explanation:

Let total number of votes enrolled = x
No. of voted cast = 70% of x = 0.7x
Valid votes = 98% of 0.7x
⇒ 60% of total valid votes = 7203 = 60% of 98% of 0.7x
⇒ 0.6 X 0.98 X 0.7x = 7203
⇒ x = 7203 / (0.6 X 0.98 X 0.7)
⇒ x = 17500
