There is a clock which shows false timing ie it shows 20 minutes less for each 1 hour. If the clock shows 12 noon now how many minutes will be lost when it shows 2 pm ?

A) 36 minutes	B) 48 minutes
C) 35 minutes	D) 60 minutes

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 60 minutes

For 1 hour, 20 minutes is slower, then for
06 miuntes - 2 minutes is slower
30 minutes - 10 minutes
Actual time | false time
12 12
01 PM 12:40 PM (20 minutes slower)
02 PM 01:20 PM
03 PM 02:00 PM

So, when actual time is 3pm, the false time is 2 pm.
So, it loses 60 minutes when it shows 2 pm.

Q:

Fish and other aquatic creatures can live inside a deep frozen pond because

A) fish are cold-blooded animals	B) ice is a bad conductor of heat
C) there will always be water just beneath the ice level	D) they can adapt themselves to live in ice

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) there will always be water just beneath the ice level

Explanation:

Water has the maximum density at $4^{o} C$ . So at this temperature, it sinks down to bottom and stays here. If it cools further, it will become less dense and move up. So while the upper layers can cool enough to form ice, the bottom layers remain as water at $4^{o} C$ .
