Q:

Instruments for measuring Solar Radiation?

A) Ammeter B) Pyranometer
C) Dynamometer D) Anemometer
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Pyranometer

Explanation:

Solar radiation instruments may be produced to measure different types of solar energy. When sunlight encounters the Earth's atmosphere, some of it is absorbed or scattered by water vapor, aerosols, clouds, and other air molecules. The radiation which penetrates to the Earth's surface is termed direct solar radiation.

 

A thermopile pyranometer is a type of actinometer used for measuring solar radiation on a planar surface and it is designed to measure the solar radiation flux density (W/m2) from the hemisphere above within a wavelength range 0.3 μm to 3 μm.

Q:

Karthik is now 32 years old and his son is 7 years old. In how many years will Karthik be twice as old as the son?

A) 18 B) 25
C) 7 D) 15
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 18

Explanation:

Given Karthik’s age = 32 years

Karthik’s son age = 7 years

Difference between their ages = K - S = 32 - 7 = 25 years ….(1)

Now, required K = 2S ……(2)

Put (2) in (1)

2S - S = 25

=> S = 25 years

Hence, at the age of 25 years of Karthik’s son, Karthik will be twice as his son’s age.

25 - 7 = 18 years

 

Therefore, after 18 years the father be twice as old as the son.
