Q:

Brightness of bulb depends on voltage or current?

A) Current B) Voltage
C) Both A & B D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Both A & B

Explanation:

Brightness of bulb depends on both voltage and current. The brightness depends on power.

Since we know that  Power (P) = Voltage x Current = V I

So whether you increase the current or the voltage the brightness will increase.

 

Example Illustration:

 If you connect a long bulb and a round bulb in series, the long bulb glows but the round bulb does not. Both of them have the same current flowing through them (they are in series) but the long bulb has a greater voltage across it because it has more resistance (even though V= IR is not obeyed exactly, voltage drop does depend on the resistance). If you connect a round bulb and a long bulb in parallel, however, it is the round bulb that is brighter because now the voltage across both bulbs is the same but the current is larger through the round bulb (smaller resistance).

 

Hence, the brightness of a bulb depends on power i.e, both voltage and current.

Q:

Is C2 Paramagnetic or Diamagnetic?

A) Paramagnetic B) Diamagnetic
C) Ferromagnetic D) Can't be determined
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Diamagnetic

Explanation:

Paramagnetic Molecules ::

 

If the Electronic configuration of a molecule has any unpaired electrons, then that molecule is said to be Paramagnetic.

 

Diamagnetic Molecules ::

 

If the Electronic configuration of a molecule has only paired or spin paired electrons, then that molecule is said to be Diamagnetic.

Here the molecule C2 has all paired electrons in its electronic configuration. So C2 is Diamagnetic.

 

Whereas, B2 molecule has unpaired electrons. So B2 is Paramegnetic.

Q:

The wages of labourers in a factory increases in the ratio 22:25 and there was a reduction in the number of labourers in the ratio 15:11. Find the original wage bill if the present bill is Rs. 5000 ?

A) Rs. 5500 B) Rs. 6000
C) Rs. 6200 D) Rs. 6350
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 6000

Explanation:

The wages of labourers in a factory increases in the ratio 22:25 and there was a reduction in the number of labourers in the ratio 15:11. Find the original wage bill if the present bill is Rs 5000 ?
Ratio of increase of wages = 22:25
Ratio of decrease of labourers = 15:11
Compound ratio of wages of labourers = 22 x 15 : 25 x 11 = 330:275
Final bill = Rs. 5000
For 275 ratio wages = Rs. 5000
For 1 ratio wages = 5000/275
For 330 ratio wages = 5000/275 x 330 = Rs. 6000

Q:

125 over 1000 in Simplest Form?

A) 2/9 B) 1/8
C) 3/8 D) 4/7
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1/8

Explanation:

125 over 1000 in Simplest Form means 1251000 in its simple fraction form.

 

Now, to get the simplest form of 125/1000, find the HCF or GCD of both numerator and denominator i.e, 125 and 1000.

 

HCF of 125, 1000 = 125

 

Then, divide both numerator and denominator by 125

i.e, 1251251000125 = 18

 

Hence, 18 is the simplest form of 125 over 1000.

Q:

Statement :

The byproducts obtained from animals such as hairs, skins, horns, etc. contain at least 45 per cent food protein. Indian scientists have developed methods to segregate 50 per cent of this protein. They have used an enzyme developed in Russia for destruction of soya-proteins.

Conclusions:

A. Indian scientists cannot develop enzymes.

B. If a suitable method involving less cost is developed then many more food protein would be obtained.

A) Only A follows B) Only B follows
C) Neither A nor B follows D) Both A & B follows
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Neither A nor B follows

Explanation:

There is no indication that Indian scientists are incapable of developing enzymes. There could be any number of reasons why Indian scientists used Russian enzymes.

So conclusion A does not follow.

In addition, cost is not discussed in the passage at all. There is no mention of a correlation between cost and extraction of proteins.

Thus, conclusion B does not follow either.

Q:

What is the common ratio of the following geometric sequence?

4, 2, 1, 0.5, 0.25, 0.125,...

A) 0.5 B) -1
C) 1.5 D) -0.5
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 0.5

Explanation:

In mathematics, a geometric progression, also known as a geometric sequence, is a sequence of numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio.

 

Herein the given sequence, 4, 2, 1, 0.5, 0.25, 0.125,...

Common Ratio r = 2/4 = 1/2 = 0.5/1 = 0.25/0.5 = 0.125/0.25 == 0.5.

Q:

An air bubble in water will act like a

A) convex lens B) convex mirror
C) concave lens D) concave mirror
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) concave lens

Explanation:

An_air_bubble_in_water_will_act_like_a1557488532.jpg image

The lens which have atleast one inward curved surface is a concave lens. Concave ens is a diverging lens as it spreads out light rays that have been refracted through it.

A concave lens is thinner at its centre than at its edges.
