Q:

10 years ago, the average age of a family of 4 members was 24 years. Two children having been born (with age diference of 2 years), the present average age of the family is the same. The present age of the youngest child is :

A) 1	B) 2
C) 3	D) 4

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 3

Explanation:

Total age of 4 members, 10 years ago = (24 x 4) years = 96 years.

Total age of 4 members now = [96 + (10 x 4)] years = 136 years.

Total age of 6 members now = (24 x 6) years = 144 years.

Sum of the ages of 2 children = (144 - 136) years = 8 years.

Let the age of the younger child be x years.

Then, age of the elder child = (x+2) years.

So, x+(x+2) =8 <=> x=3

Age of younger child = 3 years.

Q:

Suppose you have a computional circuit between two registers driven by a clock. What will you do if the delay of the combinational circuit is greater than your clock signal?

Answer

Use the concept of register-retiming.

divide the totla combinatorial delay in two segments such that individually the delay is less the clock period.

this can be done by inserting a flip-flop in the combinational path.

e.g.,

clock period --- 5 ns

total cominational delay ---- 7

then divide the 7ns path in two path of 4 or 3 (best resutls are obtained if delays are same for both path i.e 3.5ns) by inserting a flip-flop in between.

Q:

A motorist travels to a place 150 km away at an average speed of 50 km/hr and returns at 30 km/hr. His average speed for the whole journey in km/hr is :

A) 35	B) 36
C) 37.5	D) 38.2

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 37.5

Explanation:

Average speed = (2xy) /(x + y) km/hr

= (2 * 50 * 30) / (50 + 30) km/hr.

37.5 km/hr.

Q:

A car owner buys petrol at Rs 7.50, Rs. 8 and Rs. 8.50 per litre for three successive years. What approximately is the average cost per litre of petrol if he spends Rs. 4000 each year ?

A) 6.23	B) 7.98
C) 8.97	D) 9.89

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 7.98

Explanation:

Total quantity of petrol consumed in 3 years =(4000/7.50+4000/8+4000/8.50) liters

= 4000(2/15+1/8+2/17) liters

= 76700/51 liters

Total amount spent = Rs. (3 x 4000) = Rs. 12000.

$\therefore$ Average cost = Rs. (12000*51/76700) = Rs. 7.98.
