C) it exists as solid, liquid or gas	D) it cannot be split up into simpler substances by chemicals means

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) it contains two different elements joined by chemical bond

Explanation:

We know that All compounds are molecules, but not all molecules are compounds.

Water is a molecule because it is made from atoms that have been chemically combined. It is also a compound because the atoms that make water are not all the same - some are oxygen and some are hydrogen.

Q:

The Value of $[\log (\tan (1^{0})) + \log (\tan (2^{0})) + \dots \dots + \log (\tan (89^{0}))]$ is

A) -1	B) 0
C) 1/2	D) 1

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 0

Explanation:

$= [\log \tan (1^{0}) + \log \tan (89^{0})] + [\log \tan (2^{0}) + \log \tan (88^{0})] + \dots \dots + [\log \tan (45^{0})]$

$= \log [\tan (1^{0}) \times \tan (89^{0})] + \log [\tan (2^{0}) \times \tan (88^{0})] + \dots \dots + \log (1)$

$[∵ \tan (90 - θ) = c o t θ a n d \tan (45^{0}) = 1]$

= log 1 + log 1 +.....+log 1

= 0.

Q:

A tennis ball machine serves a ball vertically into the air from a height of 2 feet, with an initial speed of 110 feet per second. After how many seconds does the ball attain its maximum height?

A) 2.87 sec	B) 3.44 sec
C) 4.65 sec	D) 5.41 sec

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 3.44 sec

Explanation:

It is launched vertically with an initial speed of 110 ft/sec.

It will reach maximum height when the speed drops to 0.

Vo=110 feet per second

ho=2 feet

So, h(t) = -16t^2 +110t +2

Take the derivative: h'(t) = 110 -32t

The maximum height will be at the inflection when the derivative crosses the x-axis, then h'(t)=0.

So, set h'(t)=0 and solve for t:

0 = 110 -32t

-110 = -32t

t=3.4375

t=3.44 seconds.

Q:

Can you slove this Maths Puzzle?

maths_puzzle1537500715.jpg image

A) 12	B) 6
C) 3	D) 1

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 6

Explanation:

In the given puzzle, the logic behind is

9 = 72 => 9 x 8 = 72

8 = 56 => 8 x 7 = 56

7 = 42 => 7 x 6 = 42

6 = 30 => 6 x 5 = 30

5 = 20 => 5 x 4 = 20

Similarly,

4 = 12 => 4 x 3 = 12

3 = 6 => 3 x 2 = 6

Q:

Adam and Smith are working on a project. Adam takes 6 hrs to type 36 pages on a computer, while Smith takes 5 hrs to type 40 pages. How much time will they take, working together on two different computers to type a project of 120 pages?

A) 8 hrs 45 min	B) 8 hrs 42 min
C) 8 hrs	D) 8 hrs 34 min

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 8 hrs 34 min

Explanation:

Number of pages typed by Adam in 1 hour = 36/6 = 6
Number of pages typed by Smith in 1 hour = 40/5 = 8
Number of pages typed by both in 1 hour = (6 + 8) = 14
Time taken by both to type 110 pages = (120 * 1/14) = $8 \frac{4}{7}$ = 8 hrs 34 min.
