Answer : 1. "9 3/5 days"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 9 3/5 days Explanation: Let the total work be 'W' As per the given information, P can complete the work 'W' in 24 days. => one day work of P = W/24 And also given that, The time taken by P to complete one-third of work is equal to time taken by Q to complete half of the work => PW/3 = QW/2 => P's 1 day = W/24 ? = W/3 => ? = 24W/3W = 8 => QW/2 = 8 days => Q alone can complete the work W in 16 days => P + Q can complete the work in 1/24 + 1/16 = 5/48 => 48/5 days = 9 3/5 days.
Q: How long will it take for two pipes A and B to fill an empty cistern if they worked alternately for an hour each ? A. Working alone, Pipe A can fill the cistern in 40 hoursB. Pipe B is one third as efficient as Pipe A 2222 05b5cc6d2e4d2b4197774e456

Answer : 3. "Both (A) and (B) are sufficient"
Explanation :
Answer: C) Both (A) and (B) are sufficient Explanation: From statement A, we know that Pipe A can fill the tank in 40 hours. However, this information is not sufficient as we do not have the data for Pipe B. Hence, statement A alone cannot answer the given question.From statement B, we know that Pipe B is one third as efficient as pipe A. However, we do not know the rate at which Pipe A fills the tank. Hence, we will not be able to find the rate at which Pipe B fills the cistern. Therefore, statement B alone is not sufficient to answer the question.Now, if we combine the two statements, we know that Pipe A take 40 hours to fill the cistern.Pipe B takes 120 hours to fill the cistern.If they worked alternately, then either Pipe A could have started the cycle or Pipe B could have started the cycle.If Pipe A started the sequence of filling alternately, then at the end of two hours, the two pipes together would have filled 1/40 + 1/120 = 1/30 th of the tank in an hour. Or the cistern will fill in 30 hours.If Pipe B started the sequence, then at the end of 2 hours, the two pipes together would have filled 1/120 + 1/40 = 1/30 th of the tank in an hour. Or the cistern will fill in 30 hours.As the answer obtained irrespective of which pipe started the sequence is the same, the correct answer is (3) - i.e., both the statement are sufficient to answer the question.

Answer : 2. "25000"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 25000 Explanation: We know that, One square meter is equal to 10,00,000 sq mm.Given, each mesh is 8mm length and 5mm wideTherefore for each mesh : 8 x 5 = 40 sq mm.So, number of meshes = 100000040 = 25000.

Answer : 4. "16"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 16 Explanation: 26 - 6 = 20 20 - 5 = 15 15 - 4 = 11 11 - 3 = 8 8 - 2 = 6 6 - 1 = 5 Therefore, 16 is wrong number.

Answer : 1. "TRUE"
Explanation :
Answer: A) TRUE Explanation: TRUE. The computers and electronic devices use digitized information which is easily understood by them. Digitization is the process of converting analog signals or information of any form into a digital format that can be understood by computer systems or electronic devices. The term is used when converting information, like text, images or voices, and sounds, into binary code.

Answer : 1. "a wave reflects upon itself"
Explanation :
Answer: A) a wave reflects upon itself Explanation: A standing wave also known as a stationary wave, is a wave in which its peaks or any other point on the wave do not move spatially. This phenomenon can occur because the medium is moving in the opposite direction to the wave, or it can arise in a stationary medium as a result of interference between two waves traveling in opposite directions. The most common cause of standing waves is the phenomenon of resonance, in which standing waves occur inside a resonator due to interference between waves reflected back and forth at the resonator's resonant frequency. Hence, standing wave occurs when a wave reflects upon itself.
Q: Out of sixty students, there are 14 who are taking Economics and 29 who are taking Calculus. What is the probability that a randomly chosen student from this group is taking only the Calculus class ? 2219 05b5cc745e4d2b4197774fa1d

Answer : 2. "7/15"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 7/15 Explanation: Given total students in the class = 60Students who are taking Economics = 24 andStudents who are taking Calculus = 32Students who are taking both subjects = 60-(24 + 32) = 60 - 56 = 4Students who are taking calculus only = 32 - 4 = 28probability that a randomly chosen student from this group is taking only the Calculus class = 28/60 = 7/15.
