Q:

Althaf borrows Rs. 1500 from two moneylenders. He pays interest at the rate of 12% per annum for one loan and at the rate of 14% per annum for the other. The total interest he pays for the entire year is Rs. 186. How much does he borrow at the rate of 12% ?

A) Rs. 300 B) Rs. 400
C) Rs. 1200 D) Rs. 1100
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 1200

Explanation:

Let Althaf lent Rs. A at 14% per year.
Hence, Money lent at 12% = (1500-A);
Given, total interest = Rs. 186.
{(A x 14x 1)/100} + {[(1500-A) x 12 x 1/100]} = 186;
14A/100 + (18000 -12A)/100 = 186;
14A + 18000 - 12A = 186x100;
2A = 18600-18000;
A = 600/2 = Rs. 300.
Hence, money lent at 12% = 1500-300 = Rs. 1200.

Q:

A 150 m long train crosses another 210 m long train running in the opposite direction in 10.8 seconds. If the shorter train crosses a pole in 12 seconds, what is the speed of longer train ?

A) 75 kmph B) 80 kmph
C) 54 kmph D) 45 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 75 kmph

Explanation:

Total distance = 150 + 210 = 360 mts

Time taken to cross each other when moving in opposite direction = 10.8 sec

Relative speed of trains = (350/10.8) x 18/5 = 3600/30 = 120 kmph

Speed of shorter train = (150/12) x 18/5 = 45 kmph

 

Hence, speed of longer train = 120 - 45 = 75 kmph.

If you were to raise a lift truck up and look at its underside, you would see that the support points for the truck are located at points A, B, and C. The triangle formed between points A, B, and C is called the Stability Triangle. The lift truck will not tip over as long as the center of gravity remains inside the triangle.


 


The center of gravity is the point within a lift truck where there is equal weight all around it.
