Q:

The incomes of two persons A and B are in the ratio 3:4. If each saves Rs.100 per month, the ratio of their expenditures is 1:2. Find their incomes  ?

A) 200, 400 B) 100, 300
C) 100, 200 D) 150, 200
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 150, 200

Explanation:

The incomes of A and B be 3P and 4P.

Expenditures = Income - Savings

(3P - 100) and (4P - 100)

The ratio of their expenditure = 1:2

(3P - 100):(4P - 100) = 1:2

2P = 100 => P = 50

Their incomes = 150, 200

Q:

A boat takes 2 hours to travel from point A to B in still water. To find out its speed upstream, which of the following information is/are required?

A. Distance between point A and B.

B. Time taken to travel downstream from B to A.

C. Speed of the stream of water.

A) Only A and B B) Only B and C
C) All are required D) Any one pair of A and B, B and C or C and A is sufficient
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Any one pair of A and B, B and C or C and A is sufficient

Explanation:

Let distance between A & B = d km
Let speed in still water = x kmph
Let speed of current = y kmph

from the given data,
d/x = 2

From A) we get d
From B) we get d/x+y
From C) we get y

 

So, Any one pair of A and B, B and C or C and A is sufficient to give the answer i.e, the speed of upstream.

Q:

The difference between 4632 and 20000 is what number

A) 15368 B) 12652
C) 14562 D) 14965
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 15368

Explanation:

The difference between 4632 and 20000 is given by subtracting smaler number from the bigger number.

Here the bigger number is 20000

Smaller number is 4632

Now, subtracting 4632 from 20000

20000 - 4632 = 15368 and the resut is an even number.

 

Hence, The difference between 4632 and 20000 is 15368 and is an even number.

Q:

Intermolecular forces in HCl are

A) Hydrogen bonding B) Dipole-dipole
C) Dispersion force D) All the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) All the above

Explanation:

Intermolecular forces :

The forces of attraction present in between the molecules or atoms or compounds is termed as intermolecular forces.


The molecule HCl is composed of hydrogen and chlorine atom. There is high difference in electronegativities therefore, it is polar in nature. The H end of HCl is permanently slightly positive charge. The Cl end of HCl has a permanent slight negative charge. the "H" in one molecule is attracted to the "Cl" in a neighbor. The intermolecular force is weak compared to a covalent bond. But this dipole-dipole interaction is one of the stronger intermolecular attractions.

It also has hydrogen bonding and dispersion forces. 

Dispersion forces are the weakest forces which are present in between all molecules or atoms.
Hydrogen bonds are present in molecules having at least one H-A bond where A is the strong electronegative atom (mainly F, Cl and N).

Q:

Priya can do a work in 16 days. In how many days will the work be completed by Sai, if the efficiency of Sai is 60% more than that of Priya ?

A) 8 days B) 12 days
C) 14 days D) 10 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 10 days

Explanation:

Ratio of efficiencies of Priya and Sai is

Sai : Priya = 160 : 100 = 8 : 5

Given Priya completes the work in 16 days

Let number of days Sai completes the work be 'd'

=> 5×16 = 8×d

d = 10 days.

Therefore, number of days Sai completes the work is 10 days.
