Q:

If the radius of a circle is decreased by 50% , find the percentage decrease in its area.

A) 75% B) 65%
C) 35% D) 25%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 75%

Explanation:

let original radius = r and  new radius = (50/100) r = r/2

 


original area = πr2 and new area = πr/22

 


decrease in area =  3πr2/4*1πr2 *100 = 75%

Q:

A, B and C started a company where their initial investments was in the ratio of 2:3:4. At the end of 6 months, A invested an amount such that his total capital became equal to B's initial capital investment. If the annual profit of B is Rs. 3000 then what is the total profit of the company ?

A) Rs. 9500 B) Rs. 10600
C) Rs. 7500 D) Rs. 8900
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 9500

Explanation:

Given initial investments ratio = 2 : 3 : 4

At the end of 6 months, A invested an amount such that his total capital became equal to B's initial capital investment

i.e, upto 6 months A's investment is 2 and after 6 months his invstment is 3 = B's investment

Now, Ratio of investment for one year

=> A : B : C = (2×6 + 3×6) : (3×12) : (4×12)

= 30 : 36 : 48

= 5 : 6 : 8

But given B's profit = 3000

=> 6 ratio = 3000

For total => 19 ratio = Rs. 9500.

Q:

The reactivity of an atom arises from 

A) the existence of unpaired electrons in the valence shell B) the energy differences between the electron shells
C) the sum of the potential energies of all the electron shells D) the average distance of the outermost electron shell from the nucleus
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) the existence of unpaired electrons in the valence shell

Explanation:

When atoms react they do so in order to reach the lowest energy, which is the most stable. The electrons orbitals will overlap in the way that reduces the energy the most. Orbitals of similar energy will produce the greatest stabilisation.The answer you gave isn't the whole story, it depends what species is reacting with what. The effective nuclear charge on the atom will affect the energy of the valance electrons.

 

Hence, the reactivity of an atom arises from the existence of unpaired electrons in the valence shell.

Q:

Three numbers which are co-prime to each other are such that the product of the first two is 551 and that of the last two is 1073. The sum of the three numbers is :

A) 83 B) 89
C) 85 D) 79
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 85

Explanation:

Since the numbers are co-prime, they contain only 1 as the common factor.
Also, the given two products have the middle number in common.
So, middle number = H.C.F of 551 and 1073 = 29;
First number = 551/29 = 19
Third number = 1073/29 = 37.
Required sum = 19 + 29 + 37 = 85.

C) 6.22 sq.m D) 7.22 sq.m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 7.22 sq.m

Explanation:

Area of the square = 12×diagonal2=  1/2 * 3.8 * 3.8 = 7.22 sq.m
