Q:

A, B and C can do a piece of work in 72, 48 and 36 days respectively. For first p/2 days, A & B work together and for next ((p+6))/3days all three worked together. Remaining 125/3% of work is completed by D in 10 days. If C & D worked together for p day then, what portion of work will be remained?

A) 1/5 B) 1/6
C) 1/7 D) 1/8
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1/6

Explanation:

Total work is given by L.C.M of 72, 48, 36

Total work = 144 units

Efficieny of A = 144/72 = 2 units/day

Efficieny of B = 144/48 = 3 units/day

Efficieny of C = 144/36 = 4 units/day

 

According to the given data,

2 x p/2 + 3 x p/2 + 2 x (p+6)/3 + 3 x (p+6)/3 + 4 x (p+6)/3 = 144 x (100 - 125/3) x 1/100

3p + 4.5p + 2p + 3p + 4p = 84 x 3 - 54

p = 198/16.5

p = 12 days.

 

Now, efficency of D = (144 x 125/3 x 1/100)/10 = 6 unit/day

(C+D) in p days = (4 + 6) x 12 = 120 unit

Remained part of work = (144-120)/144 = 1/6.

A) 28 kmph B) 24 kmph
C) 26 kmph D) 32 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 24 kmph

Explanation:

Total time taken = k/40 + 2k/20 hours

= 5k/40 = k/8 hours

Average speed = 3k/(k/8) = 24 kmph.

Q:

Order of basicity of amines in gaseous state?

A) 2'> 1'> 3' > NH3 B) 3' > 2' > 1'> NH3
C) 1' > 2' > 3'> NH3 D) 2'> 3'> 1' > NH3
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 3' > 2' > 1'> NH3

Explanation:

The order of basicity in ammonia is different in gaseous phases vs. aqueous phases due to hydrogen bonding.

 

So in gaseous phases it's the well known: 3' > 2' > 1'> NH3. Just so we're on the same page, this is due to the inductive effect of electron donating alkyl groups--they destabilize the lone pair on nitrogen atom, making nitrogen more basic.

 

But in aqueous phase, the order is slightly different: 2'> 1'> 3' > NH3.

Q:

A person travels from K to L a speed of 50 km/hr and returns by increasing his speed by 50%. What is his average speed for both the trips ?

A) 55 kmph B) 58 kmph
C) 60 kmph D) 66 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 60 kmph

Explanation:

Speed on return trip = 150% of 50 = 75 km/hr.

Average speed = (2 x 50 x 75)/(50 + 75) = 60 km/hr.

Q:

If a soldier fires 7 shots from a gun in 12 minutes then find the total number of shots fired by the man in 3/2 hrs.

A) 45 B) 44
C) 46 D) 47
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 46

Explanation:

Here given soldier shots 7 shots in 12 min

=> 1 shot doen't take any time in 12 min 

=> Only 6 shots take 12 min 

12 min ------ 6 shots 

90 min ------ ? shots 

=> 90 x (6/12) = 45 

Therefore, total shots fired in 90 minutes = 45 + 1 = 46 shots.
