Q:

The ratio of speeds of a car, a train and a bus is 5:9:4. The average speed of the car, the bus and the train is 72 km/hr together. What is the average speed of the car and the train together ?

A) 84 km/hr B) 96 km/hr
C) 72 km/hr D) 60 km/hr
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 84 km/hr

Explanation:

Let the speeds of the car, train and bus be 5x, 9x and 4x km/hr respectively.
Average speed = 5x + 9x + 4x/3 = 18x /3 = 6x km/hr.
Also, 6x = 72 => x = 12 km/hr
Therefore, the average speed of the car and train together is = 5x+9x2= 7x = 7 x 12 = 84 km/hr.

Q:

A circular swimming pool is surrounded by a concrete wall 4ft wide. If the area of the concrete wall surrounding the pool is 11/25 that of the pool, then the radius of the pool is?

A) 10ft B) 20ft
C) 30ft D) 40ft
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 20ft

Explanation:

let the radius of the pool be Rft

 

Radius of the pool including the wall = (R+4)ft

 

Area of the concrete wall = πR+42-R2=πR+4+RR+4-R = 8πR+2 sq feet

 

=> 8πR+2 = 1125πR2 =>11R2 =200R+2

 

Radius of the pool R = 20ft

Q:

The purpose of choke in tube light is

A) Induce high voltage B) Induce low resistance
C) Induce high resistance D) Induce low voltage
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Induce high voltage

Explanation:

When the switch is ON, in a tube light choke is nothing but the coil/ballast ( inductor) which is used to induce the high voltage across it. as we know that inductor has property to induce high voltage for the brief period of time, this high voltage is required to ionize the gases in the starter.

Then gas inside the starter gets ionized due to this full voltage and heats the bimetallic strip that is caused to be bent to connect to the fixed contact. Current starts flowing through the starter. Although the ionization potential of the neon is the little bit more than that of the argon but still due to small electrode gap high voltage gradient is appeared in the neon bulb and hence glow discharge is started first in a starter.

As voltage gets reduced due to the current causes a voltage drop across the inductor, the strip cools and breaks away from the fixed contact. At that moment a large L di/dt voltage surge comes across the inductor at the time of breaking.

This high valued surge comes across the tube light electrodes and strikes penning mixture (mixture argon gas and mercury vapor).

Gas discharge process continues and current gets the path to flow through the tube light gas only due to low resistance as compared to the resistance of starter.

Q:

With an average speed of 40 km/hr, a train reaches its destination in time. If it goes with an average speed of 35 km/hr, it is late by 15 minutes. Find the length of the total journey?

A) 70 kms B) 60 kms
C) 45 kms D) 30 kms
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 70 kms

Explanation:

Let the time taken by train be 't' hrs.

Then,

40t = 35t + 1560

40t = 35t + 35/4

t = 7/4 hrs

Therefore, Required length of the total journey d = s x t

= 40 x 7/4

= 70 kms.

Q:

In a class of 39 students the ratio of boys and girls is 2 : 1. Radhika ranks 15th among all the students from top and 8th among girls from bottom. How many boys are there below Radhika ?

A) 9 B) 17
C) 11 D) 15
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 17

Explanation:

Total student= 39, boys : girls = 2:1, hence no of boys= 2/3(39)= 26
num of girls= 1/3(39) = 13 , since radhika ranked 15 among 39 student from top
and ranked 8 among girls from bottom , this means 7 girls are below radhika, rest 13-9= 5 girls are above her, now from 14 toper 5 are girls hence 14-5=9 boys.
Hence num of boys below radhika are 26-9=17
