Q:

From a container of wine, a thief has stolen 15 litres of wine and replaced it with same quantity of water. He again repeated the same process. Thus, in three attempts the ratio of wine and water became 343 : 169. The initial amount of wine in the container was:

A) 75 litres B) 100 litres
C) 150 litres D) 120 litres
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 120 litres

Explanation:

wine(left)wine(added) = 343169

 

It means  wine(left)wine(initial amount) = 343512    (since 343 + 169 = 512)

  

Thus,  343x = 512x1 - 15k3

 

 343512 = 783 = 1 - 15k3

 

 1-15k=78=1-18

  

Thus the initial amount of wine was 120 liters.

Q:

A ball is thrown vertically upward from the ground. It crosses a point at the height of 25 m twice at an interval of 4 seconds. The ball was thrown with the velocity of

A) 18 m/s B) 25 m/s
C) 30 m/s D) 36 m/s
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 30 m/s

Explanation:

The interval between object pass the same point is 4 sec.

That means in 2 sec, object reaches the top and in next 2 sec, it again reaches the same point.

By the info given, we can find the velocity of that point by using : v=u+(-gt)

0= u - 10×2

u = 20

Then the velocity at 25m is 20m/sec.

so the initial velocity is


-v2 = u2 + (-2gh)400 = u2 - 2x 10 x 25u2 = 900 => u = 30 m/s

Q:

A can do a work in 24 days. B is 20% more efficient than A. If C can do the work in 10 more days than B, find the time taken by A and C together to complete the work.

A) 43/3 days B) 40/3 days
C) 50/3 days D) 41/2 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 40/3 days

Explanation:

A takes 24 days to complete a work.
B is 20% more efficient than A,
hence B will take (24*100)/120 = 20 days.
C takes (20+10) = 30 days.
Time taken by A & C in completing the work = (24*30)/(24+30) = (24*30)/54 = 40/3 days.
