A merchant commences with a certain capital and gains annually at the rate of 30 per cent. At the end of 2 years he has worth Rs 10,000. What was the original capital? 

A) Rs. 4987 B) Rs. 5148
C) Rs. 5917 D) Rs. 6254
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 5917

Explanation:

Let the Original capital amount be Rs. P

Given after 2 years the amount is Rs. 10000

Rate of interest = 30%

According to the question,

P x 130100 x 130100 = 10000=> P = 1000000169 = 5917

Therefore, the capital amount P = Rs. 5917

Q:

Which type of molecule is CF4?

A) nonpolar, with a symmetrical distribution of charge B) polar, with an asymmetrical distribution of charge
C) nonpolar, with an asymmetrical distribution of charge D) polar, with a symmetrical distribution of charge
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) nonpolar, with a symmetrical distribution of charge

Explanation:

CF4 is tetrahedral.

Since the four 'F' atoms have the same electronegativity values, there is no bias in electron distribution toward any one.

 

Therefore, electron/charge distribution is symmetrical, which also means that the molecule is nonpolar.

 

Hence, CF4 is nonpolar molecule with a symmetrical distribution of charge.

Q:

A train is moving and crossing a man who is running on a  platform of 100 m at a speed of 8 kmph in the direction of the train, in 9 sec. If the speed of the train is 74 kmph. Find the length of the train ?

A) 202 mts B) 188 mts
C) 165 mts D) 156 mts
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 165 mts

Explanation:

Let the length of the train = L mts

Relative speed of train and man = 74 - 8 = 66 kmph = 66 x 5/18 m/s

=> 66 x 5/18 = L/9

=> L = 165 mts.

Q:

What is my PIN number ?

15284979_1144906482283121_6846321683334684022_n1500009455.png image

A) 93714 B) 42789
C) 36671 D) 93747
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 93747

Explanation:

From the hints,

Only two options for 1st and 2nd digits => 4,2 and 9,3 since it is single digits

Sum of second and third digit  = 10 

If 2 => 3rd digit = 8

If 3 => 3rd digit = 7

4th digit = 2nd digit + 1 => (2+1 =3) or (3+1 = 4)

Sum of all digits = 30

Let 5th digit be x

=> 1st possibility = 4 + 2 + 8 + 3 + x = 30 => x = 13 (Not possible since it has 2 digits)

=> 2nd possibility = 9 + 3 + 7 + 4 + x = 30 => x = 7

Therefore, the PIN is 93747

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 0

Explanation:

= log tan10+log tan890 + log tan20+ log tan880++log tan450  

 

= log [tan10 × tan890] + log [tan20 × tan880 ] ++log1  

 

 tan(90-θ)=cotθ and tan 450=1  

 

= log 1 + log 1 +.....+log 1 

 

= 0.
