Q:

Two horses start trotting towards each other, one from A to B and another from B to A. They cross each other after one hour and the first horse reaches B, 5/6 hour before the second horse reaches A. If the distance between A and B is 50 km. what is the speed of the slower horse?

A) 30 km/h B) 15 km/h
C) 25 km/h D) 20 km/h
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 20 km/h

Explanation:

If the speed of the faster horse be fs and that of slower horse be ss then

 fs+ss=501=50 

and       50ss-50fs=56

Now, you can go through options.

The speed of slower  horse is 20km/h

Since,   20+30=50

and  5020-5030=56

Q:

Arjun and Bhishma are running on a circular track of length 600m. Speed of Arjun is 30 m/s and that of Bhishma is 20 m/s .They start fro the same point at the same time in the same direction. When will they meet again for the first time?

Answer

SolTime = Circumference Relative Speed = 60010 = 60 sec.


 


Actually Arjun has to make a lead of 600 m, because when Arjun will be 600m ahead of Bhishma, they will be together again as a person when completes the total length it starts retracing he same path and thus Arjun and Bhishma can be together again.


 


Since , they make  a difference of 10 m in 1 second. so, he will create 600m difference in 60 second.

Q:

Four pipes P,Q, R and S can fill a cistern in 20,25, 40 and 50 hours respectively.The first pipe P was opened at 6:00 am, Q at 8:00 am, R at 9:00 am and S at 10:00 am. when will the Cistern be full?

A) 4:18 pm B) 3:09 pm
C) 12:15 pm D) 11:09 am
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 3:09 pm

Explanation:

Efficiency of P= 100/20= 5% per hour  

Efficiency of Q= 100/25= 4% per hour  

Efficiency of R= 100/40= 2.5% per hour  

Efficiency of S=100/50= 2% per hour 

 

Cistern filled till 10 am by P, Q and R  

Till 10.00am Pipe P filled 20%Till 10.00am Pipe Q filled 8%Till 10.00am Pipe R filled 2.5%30.5%  

Thus, at 10 am pipe P,Q and R filled 30.5% of the cistern. 

Rest of cistern to be filled = 100 - 30.5 = 69.5%  

 

Now, the time taken by P,Q,R and S together to fill the remaining capacity of the cistern 

= 69.5 / (5+4+2.5+2) = 5 Hours and 9 minutes(approx).

Therefore, total time =4 hrs + 5hrs 9 mins = 9 hrs and 9 mins

 

It means cistern will be filled up at 3:09 pm

Q:

What do you think you will be doing during your first year in investment banking?

Answer

Much of your answer to this question will depend on your role – so do some careful research into your chosen department. In M&A, you might spend much of your time on financial models related to the deals you’re working on, while in a trading role you might start out by assisting more senior members of the team before being given the chance to manage a trading book yourself. Beyond that, it’s important to show that you’ll be keen to take on responsibilities, but that you also recognise that your first year is about learning the ropes, usually means include following instructions from others and completing some mundane tasks.
