Answer : 2. "They contain free electrons"
Explanation :

Answer: B) They contain free electrons Explanation: Metal particles are held together by strong metallic bonds, which is why they have high melting and boiling points. The free electrons in metals can move through the metal, allowing metals to conduct electricity. Because the electrons in the atom's higher energy levels can separate from the atoms easily, they can be pulled out with very little energy. Because the molecular structure of the metal is such that 'free electrons' are free to move, thus being categorized as electrically conductive.   For example, copper is used for electrical wiring because it is a good conductor of electricity.

Answer : 3. "Saturn"
Explanation :

Answer: C) Saturn Explanation: Saturn, the solar system's second largest planet that takes the prize for least dense. It's less dense than water, which has led many people to postulate that it would float. However, even if it somehow found its way to a body of water large and deep enough to contain it, Saturn would break apart and its rocky core would sink.

Q: In a 48 ltr mixture, the ratio of milk and water is 5:3. How much water should be added in the mixture so as the ratio will become 3:5 ? 1776 0

Answer : 3. "32 lit"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 32 lit Explanation: Given mixture = 48 lit Milk in it = 48 x 5/8 = 30 lit => Water in it = 48 - 30 = 18 lit Let 'L' lit of water is added to make the ratio as 3:5 => 30/(18+L) = 3/5 => 150 = 54 + 3L => L = 32 lit.

Q: A train 125 m long passes a man, running at 4 km/hr in the same direction in which the train is going, in 10 seconds. The speed of the train is: 1776 0

Answer : 1. "49 kmph"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 49 kmph Explanation: Speed of the train relative to man = (125/10) m/sec = (25/2) m/sec. [(25/2) x (18/5)] km/hr = 45 km/hr. Let the speed of the train be 'x' km/hr. Then, relative speed = (x - 4) km/hr. x - 4 = 45 => x = 49 km/hr.

Q: Is DRAM Volatile or Nonvolatile? 1774 0

Answer :
Explanation :

DRAM is a Volatile random-access memory (VRAM).   Volatile random-access memory (VRAM) is random-access memory that retains its information when power is turned on. Examples of volatile memory are primary storage (typically dynamic RAM, DRAM), and fast CPU cache memory (typically static RAM, SRAM, which is fast but energy-consuming and offer lower memory capacity per area unit than DRAM). Non-volatile random-access memory (NVRAM) is random-access memory that retains its information when power is turned off. Examples of non-volatile memory are flash memory (used as secondary memory) and ROM, PROM, EPROM and EEPROM memory (used for storing firmware such as BIOS).
