Q:

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

A) 56 years B) 62 years
C) 69 years D) 72 years
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 72 years

Explanation:

Let us consider Karthik as K1 and Kalyan as K2.


Given k18+k1 and K2 - (K1 + 5) = 3 

K2 - K1 = 8

K2 = 8 + K1

Now, 

k18+k1= 45

=> K1 = 32 years

Therefore K2 = 40 years.

K1 + K2 = 72 years.

Q:

Ramu rides his bike at an average speed of 45 km/hr and reaches his desitination in four hours. Somu covers the same distance in six hours. If Ramu covered his journey at an average speed which was 9 km/hr less and Somu covered his journey at an average speed which was 10 km/hr more, then the difference in their times taken to reach the destination would be (in minutes).

A) 18 min B) 30 min
C) 27 min D) 32 min
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 30 min

Explanation:

Distance travelled by Ramu = 45 x 4 = 180 km

Somu travelled the same distance in 6 hours.

His speed = 180/6 = 30 km/hr

Hence in the conditional case, Ramu's speed = 45 - 9 = 36 km/hr and Somu's speed = 30 + 10 = 40km/hr.

Therefore travel time of Ramu and Somu would be 5 hours and 4.5 hours respectively.

Hence difference in the time taken = 0.5 hours = 30 minutes.

Q:

Two metallic plate of equal thickness and coefficient thermal conductivity K1 and K2 put together face to face. A common plate is constructed. What is equivalent K? 

A) K1k2/k1+k2 B) 2k1k2/k1+k2
C) K1+k2/k1k2 D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 2k1k2/k1+k2

Explanation:

We know that,

 

The equivalent K =  L1 + L2L1K1+L2K2

 

where L1 & L2 are plate1 & Plate2 thicknesses, K1 & K2 are coefficient thermal conductivity of plate1 & Plate2 respectively.

 

But here L1 = L2 = L (say)

 

Then K = L+L/(L/K1 + L/K2)  =  2K1K2K1+K2
