Q:

The Computer size was very large in

A) Fourth Generation B) Third Generation
C) Second Generation D) First Generation
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) First Generation

Explanation:

The First Generation Computers size was very large. 

 

Since the First generation computers used 1000s of vacuum tubes that required lot of space made them gigantic in size. Single transistor could replace 1000 vacuum tubes and a single IC chip replaced 1000s of transistors made computers smaller and more speedy.

 

It is obvious that computers developed with more power, reliability, speed and smaller sizes due to the enhancement of technology.

Q:

Find at what time between 9 and 10 o’clock will the hands of a clock be in 180° ?

A) 180/14 min past 10 B) 180/11 min past 9
C) 148/7 min past 10 D) 154/11 min past 9
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 180/11 min past 9

Explanation:

At 9 o’clock, the hour hand is at 9 and the minutes hand is at 12, i.e., the two hands are 15 min. spaces apart.
So, the minute hand should gain = (30 - 15) minutes = 15 minutes
55 minutes will be gained in 60 min.
15 minutes spaces will be gained in ((60/55) x 15) min. = 180/11 min.
The hands will be in the same straight line but not together i.e.,in 180 degrees at 180/11 min. past 9.

Q:

Eight years ago, Ajay's age was 4/3 times that of Vijay. Eight years hence, Ajay's age will be 6/5 times that of Vijay. What is the present age of Ajay ?

A) 41 yrs B) 40 yrs
C) 37 yrs D) 33 yrs
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 40 yrs

Explanation:

Let the present ages of Ajay and Vijay be 'A' and 'V' years respectively.

=> A - 8 = 4/3 (V - 8) and A + 8 = 6/5 (V + 8)

=> 3/4(A - 8) = V - 8 and 5/6(A + 8) = V + 8

V = 3/4 (A - 8) + 8 = 5/6 (A + 8) - 8

=> 3/4 A - 6 + 8 = 5/6 A + 20/3 - 8

=> 10 - 20/3 = 10/12 A - 9/12 A

=> 10/3 = A/12 => A = 40.
