Q:

Which of the following is true of a scientific theory?

A) It is only accepted after the person who came up with it has died. B) It is a method or device that applies scientific knowledge for some specific purpose.
C) It generates testable hypotheses, is supported by a large body of evidence, and is broad in scope. D) It must demonstrate the effect of one variable by testing control groups and experimental groups.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) It generates testable hypotheses, is supported by a large body of evidence, and is broad in scope.

Explanation:

A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. Such fact-supported theories are not "guesses" but reliable accounts of the real world. Scientific theories are not ever proved in the sense of being proved to be 100% correct.

 

Examples of some scientific theories are ::

Evolution, gravity, atomic theory, the germ theory of disease, relativity, quantum theory, electromagnetic theory, layered Earth theory, etc...

Q:

To what kingdom do common bacteria belong

A) Archaea B) Protista
C) Eubacteria D) All the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Eubacteria

Explanation:

There are two kingdoms of bacteria. They are

1. Eubacteria  and 

2. Archaea

 

The members of these two kingdoms appear similar in shape and appearance, even under the extreme magnification of the electron microscope . However, they are very different from each other in a number of molecular and biochemical aspects. It is these differences that have resulted in the microorganisms being grouped into separate kingdoms.

 

For example, eubacteria contain the rigid, stress-bearing network known as the peptidoglycan . The only exceptions are the bacteria from the genera Mycoplasma and Chlamydia. Archaebacteria do not contain peptidoglycan. Instead, they contain a different structure that is called pseudomurein.

 

The common bacteria belongs to Eubacteria kingdom.

Q:

A passenger train is moving at a speed of 120 km/hr. If the length of the train is 101 meters, how long will it take to cross a railway platform 154 meters long ?

A) 6.24 sec B) 6.58 sec
C) 7.325 sec D) 7.65 sec
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 7.65 sec

Explanation:

Here total distance = 154 + 101 = 255 mts
Given speed = 120 kmph = 120x5/18 m/sec
Hence, Time = d/s = 255x18/120x5 = 7.65 sec

Q:

'K' cycled from A to B at 10 kmph and returned at the rate of 9 kmph. 'L' cycled both ways at 12 kmph. In the whole journey 'L' took 10 minutes less than 'K'. Find the distance between A and B ?

A) 32.1 km B) 15.23 km
C) 3.75 km D) 32.1 m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 3.75 km

Explanation:

Let 'd' be the distance between A and B
K -time = d/10 + d/9 = 19d/90 hours
L -time = 2d/12 = d/6 hours
We know that, 10 min = 1/6 hours
Thus, time difference between K and L is given as 10 minutes.
=> 19d/90 - d/6 = 1/6
=> (19d-15d)/90 = 1/6
=> 4d/90 = 1/6
Thus,
d= 15/4 km = 3.75 km.

hence the distance between A and B is 3.75 km.

Q:

A room contains 3 brown, 5 black and 4 white chairs. Two chairs are picked and are put in the lawn. What is the probability that none of the chairs picked is white ?

A) 14/33 B) 14/55
C) 12/55 D) 13/33
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 14/33

Explanation:

Total number of chairs = (3 + 5 + 4) = 12.

Let S be the sample space.

Then, n(s)= Number of ways of picking 2 chairs out of 12

12×11/2×66

Let n(E) = number of events of selecting 2 chairs for selecting no white chairs.

=> 8C8×7/2×28

Therefore required probability = 28/66 = 14/33.

Q:

A and B can do a piece of work for Rs 1540. Find the difference between the wages of C and B for the same work If A can do the work in 12 days and B can do the same work in 8 days and with the help of C, A and B can do the same work in 2 days?

A) 980 B) 1232
C) 810 D) 1121
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1232

Explanation:

From the given data,


                       Day      Capacity

A              ->    12          2

B              ->     8           3             2

A + B + C ->     2            12

=> Capacity of C = 12 - 5 = 7

Ratio of capacity of A : B : C = 2 : 3 : 7

Difference of wages of C & B = 4/5 x 1540

= 4 x 308 = Rs. 1232
