Q:

The leader of the opposition, (in the manner he had planned to convince them,on) P (realising that he had failed to convince the) Q (assembly,who had a reputation for speech) R (making,was very much disappointed) S

The correct sequence should be

A) P S R Q B) Q S R P
C) R S Q P D) S P R Q
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) R S Q P

Explanation:

Since, the sentence starts talking about the leader of the opposition, the connecting statement will be R as it carries a relative pronoun ‘who’ which relates the sentences. S follows as it states the disappointment of the leader and the next statement talked about the reason of disappointment. P would be the concluding statement as it goes with the flow describing how the leader decided to convince the assembly and thus makes a coherent paragraph.

The correct formation would be, ‘The leader of the opposition who had a reputation for speech making was very much disappointed on realising that he had failed to convince the assembly in the manner he had planned to convince them’.

Q:

Liquids and gases never show

A) diamagnetic property B) paramagnetic property
C) ferromagnetic property D) electromagnetic property
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) ferromagnetic property

Explanation:

On the basis of magnetic properties, substances are classified into three groups namely diamagnetic, paramagnetic and ferromagnetic.

As solids diffuse and reorder very slowly under ambient conditions, the net, directionally dependent (anisotropic) magnetic moment can persist. Conversely, liquids and gases freely tumble and reorder: water rearranges every few pico seconds (10^12 times per second).

Hence liquids and gases can never show ferromagnetic properties.
