Q:

In which atmospheric layer are the communication satellites located?

A) Thermosphere B) Troposphere
C) Mesosphere D) Stratosphere
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Thermosphere

Explanation:

In terms of the Earth's atmosphere, they occupy regions called the thermosphere and the exosphere. The layer through which a satellite orbits depends on the satellite's function and the kind of orbit it has.

 

The thermosphere is a region of very high temperature that extends from the top of the mesosphere at around 85 kilometers (53 miles) up to 640 kilometers (400 miles) above the Earth's surface. It is called the thermosphere because temperatures can reach up to 1,500 degrees Celsius (2,732 degrees Fahrenheit).

 

However, despite the high temperatures, the pressure is very low, so satellites don't suffer heat damage.

Q:

The circumference of a circular base of Cylinder is 44 cm and its hight is 15 cm. Then the volume of the cylinder is?

A) 2759 cub. cm B) 2247 cub. cm
C) 2614 cub. cm D) 2311 cub. cm
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 2311 cub. cm

Explanation:

Given Circumference of a circular base of a cylinder = 44 cm

We know that Circumference of a circle = 2πr = 44r = 22π

Now given the height of a cylinder h = 15 cm

Volume of a cylinder V = πr2h = π22π215 = 22 x 22 x 153.14 = 2311 cm3.

Q:

If there are 150 questions in a 3 hr examination. Among these questions 50 are type A problems, which requires twice as much as time be spent on the rest of the type B problems. How many minutes should be spent on type A problems ?

A) 75 min B) 82 min
C) 90 min D) 101 min
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 90 min

Explanation:

Let X = Time taken for each of Type B Problems(100 Problems)
And 2X = Time taken for each of Type A problems(50 problems)

Total time period = 3hrs = 3 x 60min = 180 minutes

100X + 50(2X) = 180
100X + 100X = 180
200X = 180 min

X = 180/200
X = 0.90 min

By convertiing into seconds,

X = 0.90 x 60 seconds
X = 54 sec

So, time taken for Part A problems is = 54 x 2 x 50 = 5400 seconds
= 5400/60sec = 90 minutes.

Q:

Which color has the highest frequency?

A) Violet B) Red
C) Indigo D) Green
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Violet

Explanation:

In VIBGYOR. It has colors ordered from highest to lowest frequency.

 

              Violet > Indigo > Blue > Green > Yellow > Orange > Red

 

That says Violet has the highest frequency.

We know, Speed of light = Frequency x Wavelength

=> As frequeny is inversely proportional to wavelength i.e, as frequwncy goes high wavelength goes down.

 

So, the violet color has the highest frequency.

Q:

On her deathbed, a grand mother called upon his three grand sons and told them to distribute all her assets worth Rs. 52,500 in the ratio of 1/35 : 1/21 : 1/15 amongst themselves. Find the smallest share amongst the three portions ?

A) Rs. 5422 B) Rs. 10,500
C) Rs. 12,800 D) Rs. 15,000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 10,500

Explanation:

The ratio of distribution should be:
21 x 15 : 15 x 35 : 35 x 21
= 315 : 525 : 735
= 3 : 5 : 7
The smallest share will be of worth:
3/15 x 52,500 = Rs. 10,500
