Q:

A rectangular lawn of dimensions 80 m x 60 m has two roads each 10 m wide running in the middle of the lawn, one parallel to the length and the other parallel to the breadth. What is the cost of traveling the two roads at Rs.3 per sq m ?

A) Rs. 3600 B) Rs. 3800
C) Rs. 3900 D) Rs. 3700
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 3900

Explanation:

Area = (l + b – d) d

= (80 + 60 – 10)10

=> 1300 sq.mts

=> 1300 x 3 = Rs.3900

Q:

Two trains are running at 40 km/hr and 20 km/hr respectively in the same direction. Fast train completely passes a man sitting in the slower train in 5 seconds. What is the length of the fast train?

A) 27 7/9 mts B) 25 8/7 mts
C) 21 1/4 mts D) 22 mts
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 27 7/9 mts

Explanation:
Relative speed = (40 - 20) km/hr = ( 20 x 5 ( m/sec = ( 50 ( m/sec.
18 9
Therefore Length of faster train = ( 50 x 5 ( m = 250 m = 27 7 m.

Q:

Light travels slowest in

A) Glass B) Water
C) Air D) Vacuum
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Glass

Explanation:

Because the refractive index of glass is highest, light travels slowly in Glass. 

We know that the speed of light depends on the refraction index. The higher the index of refraction is, the slower the speed of light is.


R.I of air and vacuum = 0 (air is a teeny bit more but can be taken as 0)
R.I of water = 1.33
R.I of glass = 1.4.

 

Hence, Light travels slowest in Glass.

A) 33.5% B) 33.1%
C) 32.1% D) 53.1%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 33.1%

Explanation:

v1= 13πr12h1

 

v2=13πr22h2

 

% Increase in volume = (V2-V1) / (V2*100)

Q:

The magnetic moment (spin only) of  [NiCl4]2-is

A) 1.41 BM B) 1.82 BM
C) 5.46 BM D) 2.82 BM
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 2.82 BM

Explanation:

Hybridisation of Ni is e-  

Unpaired 3d8in  is 2 

So Ω = n(n+2)BM=2x4 = 8 = 2.82BM
