Q:

The circumference of a circular base of Cylinder is 44 cm and its hight is 15 cm. Then the volume of the cylinder is?

A) 2759 cub. cm B) 2247 cub. cm
C) 2614 cub. cm D) 2311 cub. cm
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 2311 cub. cm

Explanation:

Given Circumference of a circular base of a cylinder = 44 cm

We know that Circumference of a circle = 2πr = 44r = 22π

Now given the height of a cylinder h = 15 cm

Volume of a cylinder V = πr2h = π22π215 = 22 x 22 x 153.14 = 2311 cm3.

Q:

Which type of molecule is CF4?

A) nonpolar, with a symmetrical distribution of charge B) polar, with an asymmetrical distribution of charge
C) nonpolar, with an asymmetrical distribution of charge D) polar, with a symmetrical distribution of charge
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) nonpolar, with a symmetrical distribution of charge

Explanation:

CF4 is tetrahedral.

Since the four 'F' atoms have the same electronegativity values, there is no bias in electron distribution toward any one.

 

Therefore, electron/charge distribution is symmetrical, which also means that the molecule is nonpolar.

 

Hence, CF4 is nonpolar molecule with a symmetrical distribution of charge.

Q:

How long will it take for two pipes A and B to fill an empty cistern if they worked alternately for an hour each ?

A. Working alone, Pipe A can fill the cistern in 40 hours
B. Pipe B is one third as efficient as Pipe A

A) Only A is sufficient B) Only B is sufficient
C) Both (A) and (B) are sufficient D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Both (A) and (B) are sufficient

Explanation:

From statement A, we know that Pipe A can fill the tank in 40 hours. However, this information is not sufficient as we do not have the data for Pipe B. Hence, statement A alone cannot answer the given question.

From statement B, we know that Pipe B is one third as efficient as pipe A. However, we do not know the rate at which Pipe A fills the tank. Hence, we will not be able to find the rate at which Pipe B fills the cistern. Therefore, statement B alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

Now, if we combine the two statements, we know that Pipe A take 40 hours to fill the cistern.
Pipe B takes 120 hours to fill the cistern.

If they worked alternately, then either Pipe A could have started the cycle or Pipe B could have started the cycle.

If Pipe A started the sequence of filling alternately, then at the end of two hours, the two pipes together would have filled 1/40 + 1/120 = 1/30  th of the tank in an hour. Or the cistern will fill in 30 hours.

If Pipe B started the sequence, then at the end of 2 hours, the two pipes together would have filled 1/120 + 1/40 = 1/30 th of the tank in an hour. Or the cistern will fill in 30 hours.

As the answer obtained irrespective of which pipe started the sequence is the same, the correct answer is (3) - i.e., both the statement are sufficient to answer the question.

Q:

A chartered bank offers a five-year Escalator Guaranteed Investment Certificate.In successive years it pays annual interest rates of 4%, 4.5%, 5%, 5.5%, and 6%, respectively, compounded at the end of each year. The bank also offers regular five-year GICs paying a fixed rate of 5% compounded annually. Calculate and compare the maturity values of $1000 invested in each type of GIC. (Note that 5% is the average of the five successive one-year rates paid on the Escalator GIC.)

A) 1276.28 B) 1234
C) 1278 D) 1256
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1276.28

Explanation:

FV = $1000(1.04)(1.045)(1.05)(1.055)(1.06) = $1276.14

 the maturity value of the regular GIC is

 

 FV = $ 1000 x 1.055=  $1276.28

Q:

The ratio of K’s and M’s ages is 4: 5. If the difference between the present age of M and the age of K, 5 years hence is 3 years, then what is the difference and total of present ages of K and M?

A) 8, 72 yrs B) 16, 65 yrs
C) 12, 84 yrs D) 10, 60 yrs
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 8, 72 yrs

Explanation:

Let the present ages be K,M

Given K/M = 4/5

5K - 4M = 0 ......(1)

Also given that,

M - (K + 5) = 3

M - K = 8 .........(2)


Then, by solving (1) & (2)

M = 40 yrs and K = 32 yrs

Hence, Total of ages = 40 + 32 = 72 yrs

Difference of ages = 40 - 32 = 8 yrs.
