Q:

What is the meaning of the four colour dots in the news paper?

newspaper-color-dots1525935299.jpg image

Answer

If you read newspaper daily, then you may be aware of the four coloured dots on the corner of the newspaper. 


 


The four dots CMYK — blue (Cyan), pink (Magenta), Yellow and black (Kalio) are registration marks used during printing to help ensure the print is aligned properly. Any colour can be obtained by adding the correct proportion of these four colours.


 


CMYK is used as a base for the colours used in printing newspapers, and these four colours are often printed on the paper in either a heart, dot, or square shape.


 


To print an image, the plates of all these colours are laid out on a page separately and lined up in the same spot while printing. If those four dots are blur or you find the colours overlapping on the image it means the printing is not good. To print an accurate and perfect image, the colors and shape must be arranged precisely and must be claear sharp in order to get the best output.


 



That's why CMYK is also called registration mark. As physically checking all the pages of the paper is not possible for a printer who prints number of news papers daily, he just checks these dots.

Q:

Hari Ram’s present age is three times his son’s present age and two fifth of his father’s present age. The average of the present age of all of them is 46 years. What is the difference between Hari Ram’s son’s present age and Hari Ram’s father’s present age? 

A) 44 yrs B) 56 yrs
C) 67 yrs D) 78 yrs
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 78 yrs

Explanation:

Let Hari Ram's present age = x

Then, his son's age = x/3

Father's age = 5x/2

x + x3 + 52x3 = 46=> x = 36 yrs

Now the required difference = 52x36 - 363 = 78 yrs

Q:

Two pipes A and B can fill a tank in 15 min and 20 min respectively. Both the pipes are opened together but after 4 min, pipe A is turned off. What is the total time required to fill the tank ?

A) 15 min 20 sec. B) 16 min 40 sec.
C) 13 min 10 sec. D) 14 min 40 sec.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 14 min 40 sec.

Explanation:

Part filled in 4 minutes = 4(1/15 + 1/20) = 7/15

 

Remaining part = 1 - 7/15 = 8/15

 

Part filled by B in 1 minute = 1/20

 

1/20 : 8/15 :: 1 : k

 

k = (8/15 )x 1 x 20 = 10( 2/3) min = 10 min 40 sec.

 

The tank will be full in (4 min. + 10 min. 40 sec) = 14 min 40 sec.

Q:

A ball is thrown vertically upward from the ground. It crosses a point at the height of 25 m twice at an interval of 4 seconds. The ball was thrown with the velocity of

A) 18 m/s B) 25 m/s
C) 30 m/s D) 36 m/s
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 30 m/s

Explanation:

The interval between object pass the same point is 4 sec.

That means in 2 sec, object reaches the top and in next 2 sec, it again reaches the same point.

By the info given, we can find the velocity of that point by using : v=u+(-gt)

0= u - 10×2

u = 20

Then the velocity at 25m is 20m/sec.

so the initial velocity is


-v2 = u2 + (-2gh)400 = u2 - 2x 10 x 25u2 = 900 => u = 30 m/s
