Q:

A jogger running at 9 kmph alongside a railway track is 240 metres ahead of the engine of a 120 metre long train running at 45 kmph in the same direction. In how much time will the train pass the jogger  ?

A) 10 sec B) 48 sec
C) 36 sec D) 56 sec
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 36 sec

Explanation:

Given speed of jogger = 9 kmph
Speed of train = 45 kmph
As they are in same direction,
Relative speed = 45 - 9 = 36 kmph = 36x5/18 = 10 m/s
Distance = 240 + 120 = 360 mts
Time = distance/speed = 360/10 = 36 sec.

Q:

Pavan and Sravan are two persons. If Pavan works with his actual efficiency and Sravan twice of his actual efficiency then it takes 25 days to complete the work. But If Pavan works twice of his actual efficiency and Sravan with his normal efficiency then the work is completed in 20 days. How many days would it take if Sravan alone works with his actual efficiency (in Days)?

A) 50 B) 100
C) 70 D) 35
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 100

Explanation:

Let the Efficiency of pavan be E(P)

Let the Efficiency of sravan be E(S)

Here Work W = LCM(25,20) = 100

Now, E(P+2S) = 100/25 = 4 ....(1)

E(2P+S) = 100/20 = 5 ....(2)

Hence, from (1) & (2) we get

E(S) = 1

=> Number of days Savan alone work to complete the work  = 100/1 = 100 days.

Q:

Prasanna invested certain amount in three different schemes X, Y and Z with the rate of interest 10% p.a, 12% p.a and 15% p.a respectively. If the total interest accrued in one year was Rs. 3200 and the amount invested in Scheme Z was 150% of the amount invested in Scheme X and 240% of the amount invested in Scheme Y, what was the amount invested in Scheme Y by Prasanna ?

A) Rs.6000 B) Rs.4500
C) Rs.7500 D) Rs.5000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Rs.5000

Explanation:

Let a, b and c be the amounts invested in schemes X, Y and Z respectively. Then,

As we know:

Simple interest (S.I.) = PTR/100

(a × 10 × 1/100) + (b × 12 × 1/100) + (c × 15 × 1/100) = 3200

= 10a + 12b + 15c = 320000 .........(1)

Now, c = 240% of b = 12b/5 .........(2)

And, c = 150% of a = 3a/2 => a = 2/3 c = (2 × 12)b/(3 × 5) = 8b/5 .......(3)

From (1), (2) and (3), we have

16b + 12b + 36b = 320000 => 64b = 320000 => b = 5000

∴ Sum invested in Scheme Y = Rs.5000.

Q:

Which of the following is not a correct variable type?

A) real B) char
C) float D) double
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) real

Explanation:

A variable provides us with named storage that our programs can manipulate. Each variable in C++ has a specific type, which determines the size and layout of the variable's memory the range of values that can be stored within that memory and the set of operations that can be applied to the variable.

The name of a variable can be composed of letters, digits, and the underscore character. It must begin with either a letter or an underscore. Upper and lowercase letters are distinct because C++ is case-sensitive −

 

Basic types of variables:


1. bool

Stores either value true or false.

2. char

Typically a single octet (one byte). This is an integer type.

3. int

The most natural size of an integer for the machine.

4. float

A single-precision floating point value.

5. double

A double-precision floating point value.

6. void

Represents the absence of type.

7. wchar_t

A wide character type.

Q:

If the price of diesel increases by 25% and Karthik intends to spend only an additional 15% on diesel, by how much % will he reduce the quantity of diesel purchased ?

A) 6.67 % B) 8 %
C) 7.41 % D) 9 %
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 8 %

Explanation:

Let the price of 1 litre of diesel be Rs.x and let Karthik initially buy 'y' litres of diesel.
Therefore, he would have spent Rs. xy on diesel.

When the price of diesel increases by 25%, the new price per litre of diesel is 1.25x.

Karthik intends to increase the amount he spends on diesel by 15%.
i.e., he is willing to spend xy + 15% of xy = 1.15xy

Let the new quantity of diesel that he can get be 'q'.
Then, 1.25x x q = 1.15xy
Or q = (1.15/1.25)y = 0.92y.

As the new quantity that he can buy is 0.92y, he gets 0.08y lesser than what he used to get earlier.

Or a reduction of 8%.

Q:

An express train takes 4 seconds to enter tunnel which is 1 km long. If it is traveling at 108 km an hour, how long will it take to pass completely through the tunnel ?

A) 33 sec B) 37.33 sec
C) 36.43 sec D) 32 sec
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 37.33 sec

Explanation:

Speed = 108 km/hr
enter a tunnel,, means that the train covers a distance equal to its own length
so (108 x 5/18) = x/4 where x= length of train
hence x = 120 mtrs
to pass completely train has to travel a distance = (x + tunnel length) that is 1120 mtrs.
so (1120/t) = (108x5/18)
t = 37.33 sec
