Q:

Priya can do a work in 16 days. In how many days will the work be completed by Sai, if the efficiency of Sai is 60% more than that of Priya ?

A) 8 days B) 12 days
C) 14 days D) 10 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 10 days

Explanation:

Ratio of efficiencies of Priya and Sai is

Sai : Priya = 160 : 100 = 8 : 5

Given Priya completes the work in 16 days

Let number of days Sai completes the work be 'd'

=> 5×16 = 8×d

d = 10 days.

Therefore, number of days Sai completes the work is 10 days.

Q:

The last two digits of 2151415?

A) 81 B) 61
C) 91 D) 51
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 51

Explanation:

Unit digit of this expression is always 1 as the base ends with 1. 

For the tenth place digit we need to multiply the digit in the tenth place of the base and unit digit of the power and take its unit digit.

i.e, tenth place digit in 2151 is 5 and

tenth place digit in power 415 is 1

And the units digit in the product of 5 x 1 = 5

 

Therefore, last two digits of 2151415 is 51.

Q:

Which of the following is true of a scientific theory?

A) It is only accepted after the person who came up with it has died. B) It is a method or device that applies scientific knowledge for some specific purpose.
C) It generates testable hypotheses, is supported by a large body of evidence, and is broad in scope. D) It must demonstrate the effect of one variable by testing control groups and experimental groups.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) It generates testable hypotheses, is supported by a large body of evidence, and is broad in scope.

Explanation:

A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. Such fact-supported theories are not "guesses" but reliable accounts of the real world. Scientific theories are not ever proved in the sense of being proved to be 100% correct.

 

Examples of some scientific theories are ::

Evolution, gravity, atomic theory, the germ theory of disease, relativity, quantum theory, electromagnetic theory, layered Earth theory, etc...

Q:

Calculate the number of bricks, each measuring 25 cm x 15 cm x 8 cm required to construct a wall of dimensions 10 m x 4 m x 5 m when 10% of its volume is occupied by concrete ?

A) 6000 B) 5400
C) 3800 D) 4700
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 6000

Explanation:

Let 'B' be the nuber of bricks.

=> 10 x 4/100 x 5 x 90/100 = 25/100 x 15/100 x 8/100 x B

=> 10 x 20 x 90 = 15 x 2 x B

=> B = 6000

Q:

Pavan and Sravan are two persons. If Pavan works with his actual efficiency and Sravan twice of his actual efficiency then it takes 25 days to complete the work. But If Pavan works twice of his actual efficiency and Sravan with his normal efficiency then the work is completed in 20 days. How many days would it take if Sravan alone works with his actual efficiency (in Days)?

A) 50 B) 100
C) 70 D) 35
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 100

Explanation:

Let the Efficiency of pavan be E(P)

Let the Efficiency of sravan be E(S)

Here Work W = LCM(25,20) = 100

Now, E(P+2S) = 100/25 = 4 ....(1)

E(2P+S) = 100/20 = 5 ....(2)

Hence, from (1) & (2) we get

E(S) = 1

=> Number of days Savan alone work to complete the work  = 100/1 = 100 days.
