Q:

Sneha’s weight is 140% of Veena’s weight. Rina’s weight is 90% of Sana’s weight. Sana weighs twice as much as Veena. If Sneha’s weight is x% of Rina’s weight, then x is equal to:

A) 596/9 B) 605/9
C) 645/9 D) 700/9
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 700/9

Explanation:

Let Veena's weight = 1 kg

Sana's weight = 2 kg

Sneha's weight = 1.4 kg

Rina's weight = 1.8 kg

Now,according to the given data in the question,

1.8x100 = 1.4

 

x = 1.4 × 1001.8 = 7009 = 77 79.

Q:

The marked price of an article is increased by 25% and the selling price is increased by 16.66%, then the amount of profit doubles. If the original marked price be Rs. 400 which is greater than the corresponding cost price by 33.33%, what is the increased selling price?

A) Rs. 380 B) Rs. 420
C) Rs. 460 D) Rs. 440
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 420

Explanation:

As given in the question, Marked price is 25% more than the Cost price.

=> C.P of the article = 34 x 400 = 300 

Now, 

Let the original S.P of the article be Rs. P

Now the new S.P = P + 16.666 +13.333300 x P 

=> S.P = 7P6

According to the question,

7P6 - 300 = 2P - 300

=> 5P = 1800

=> P = Rs. 360

Hence, the increased S.P = 360 x 7/6 = Rs. 420.

Q:

A standing wave occurs when

A) a wave reflects upon itself B) the amplitude of a wave exceeds its wavelength
C) two waves overlap D) the speed of the wave is zero or near zero
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) a wave reflects upon itself

Explanation:

A standing wave also known as a stationary wave, is a wave in which its peaks or any other point on the wave do not move spatially.

This phenomenon can occur because the medium is moving in the opposite direction to the wave, or it can arise in a stationary medium as a result of interference between two waves traveling in opposite directions. The most common cause of standing waves is the phenomenon of resonance, in which standing waves occur inside a resonator due to interference between waves reflected back and forth at the resonator's resonant frequency.

 

Hence, standing wave occurs when a wave reflects upon itself.
