Q:

The compound interest on a certain sum for 2 years at 10% per annum is Rs. 1155. The simple interest on the same sum for double the time at half the rate percent per annum is ?

A) Rs. 1100 B) Rs. 5500
C) Rs. 1400 D) Rs. 4120
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 1100

Explanation:

Let the sum be Rs.x. Then, 

 

 x1+101002-x=1155

 

x11102-1=1155

 

=> x =5500

 

sum = Rs. 5500.

 

So, S.I = Rs. 5500×5×4100 = 1100

Q:

Solve the Puzzle?

Answer

From the assumption and trial and error method,


last three digits sum must leave the same digit as the answer. It is possible only if the answer must be units digit number leaving tens digit as carry.


And the possible 3rd digit is 5. Since 5 + 5 + 5 = 15 


Now, 2nd step is  1 + x + x + x = 5


=> 3x = 4


It is possible with x = 8. 8 + 8 + 8 + 1 = 25 leaving 2 as carry. 


Now, 3rd step is 2 + x + x + x = 5 => x = 1


 


Hence, the three dgits are 1, 8, 5.


185 + 185 + 185 = 555.

Q:

Metals are good conductors of electricity because

A) The atoms are lightly packed B) They contain free electrons
C) They have high melting point D) All the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) They contain free electrons

Explanation:

Metal particles are held together by strong metallic bonds, which is why they have high melting and boiling points. The free electrons in metals can move through the metal, allowing metals to conduct electricity.

Because the electrons in the atom's higher energy levels can separate from the atoms easily, they can be pulled out with very little energy. Because the molecular structure of the metal is such that 'free electrons' are free to move, thus being categorized as electrically conductive.

 

For example, copper is used for electrical wiring because it is a good conductor of electricity.

Which of the following is true of a scientific theory?

A) It is only accepted after the person who came up with it has died. B) It is a method or device that applies scientific knowledge for some specific purpose.
C) It generates testable hypotheses, is supported by a large body of evidence, and is broad in scope. D) It must demonstrate the effect of one variable by testing control groups and experimental groups.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) It generates testable hypotheses, is supported by a large body of evidence, and is broad in scope.

Explanation:

A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. Such fact-supported theories are not "guesses" but reliable accounts of the real world. Scientific theories are not ever proved in the sense of being proved to be 100% correct.

 

Examples of some scientific theories are ::

Evolution, gravity, atomic theory, the germ theory of disease, relativity, quantum theory, electromagnetic theory, layered Earth theory, etc...

Q:

K is 4 times as fast as L and working together, they can complete a work in 24 days. In how many days can L alone complete the work ?

A) 30 days B) 40 days
C) 120 days D) 80 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 30 days

Explanation:

Given K=4L 

-->K+L = 4L+L = 5L

 

These 5L people can complete the work in 24 days, which means L alone can do the work in (24 x 5)=120 days.

 

Hence, K alone can do the work in 120/4= 30 days.
