Q:

In a 48 ltr mixture, the ratio of milk and water is 5:3. How much water should be added in the mixture so as the ratio will become 3:5 ?

A) 24 lit B) 16 lit
C) 32 lit D) 8 lit
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 32 lit

Explanation:

Given mixture = 48 lit

Milk in it = 48 x 5/8 = 30 lit

=> Water in it = 48 - 30 = 18 lit

Let 'L' lit of water is added to make the ratio as 3:5

=> 30/(18+L) = 3/5

=> 150 = 54 + 3L

=> L = 32 lit.

Q:

Which one of the following is applicable to collision-coalescence process of precipitation?

 

A) Clouds which do not extend beyond the freezing level B) Clouds which extend beyond the freezing level
C) All types of clouds D) Cirrocumulus cloud
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Clouds which do not extend beyond the freezing level

Explanation:

In colder clouds: droplets formed by Bergeron mechanism. But, in many parts of the world the air is too warm for ice crystals to form. This being the case, rain and snow cannot develop following the Bergeron Process. Instead, tiny droplets form as they collide into one another creating larger and larger droplet, this is known as collision-coalescence process. So, warmer clouds are associated with this keyword.
