Answer : 1. "Weight"
Explanation :

Answer: A) Weight Explanation: An intensive property is a physical quantity whose value does not depend on the amount of the substance for which it is measured. For example, the temperature of a system in thermal equilibrium is the same as the temperature of any part of it. If the system is divided the temperature of each subsystem is identical. The same applies to the density of a homogeneous system, if the system is divided in half, the mass and the volume change in the identical ratio and the density remains unchanged. Additionally, the boiling point of a substance is another example of an intensive property. For example, the boiling point for water is 100 °C at a pressure of one atmosphere, a fact which remains true regardless of quantity.

Answer : 4. "64"
Explanation :

Answer: D) 64 Explanation: The given number series follows a pattern that 196, 169, 144, 121, 100, 81, ?     -27  -25   -23   -21  -19  -17   => 81 - 17 = 64 Therefore, the series is 196, 169, 144, 121, 100, 81, 64.

Q: A man covers half of his journey by train at 60 km/hr, half of the remaining by bus at 30 km/hr and the rest by cycle at 10 km/hr. Find his average speed during the entire journey? 1779 0

Answer : 4. "24 kmph"
Explanation :

Answer: D) 24 kmph Explanation: Let the total distance of the journey of a man = d kms Now, the average speed of the entire journey = dd120 + d120 + d40  = 24 kmph.

Answer : 3. "36"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 36 Explanation: Given 4men, 12 women and 20 children work for  2 days. Workdone for 2 days by 4men, 12 women and 20 children = 4 x 26 x 12 + 12 x 28 x 18 + 20 x 218 x 10 = 12 Therefore, remaining work = 1 - 12 = 12 To complete the same work by only men in 1 day, We know that M1 x D1 = M2 x D2 Here M1 = 6 , D1 = 12 and M2 = M , D2 = 1 12 x 6 = M x 1 => M = 12 x 6 = 72 => But the remaining work = 1/2 Men required => 1/2 x 72 = 36 Only men required to Complete the remaining work in 1 day = 36.

Answer : 1. "Oxygen"
Explanation :

Answer: A) Oxygen Explanation: A greenhouse gas is a gas in an atmosphere that absorbs and emits radiant energy within the thermal infrared range. This process is the fundamental cause of the greenhouse effect.    Carbon dioxide is a main greenhouse gas, found in car exhaust pipes.Methane and nitrous oxide is another type of greenhouse gas. Oxygen is the only clean gas out there because we need it to survive. Therefore, the only gas that is not a greenhouse gas is Oxygen.

Q: How long would it take to travel 4 light years? 1285 0

  • Show AnswerHide Answer
  • Workspace

Answer :
Explanation :

There are approximately 6 trillion miles in a light-year, so the distance we need to go is 6 trillion miles / light-year times. 4 light-years is equal to 24 trillion miles. So, this whole would take 1.2 billion hours. There are 24 hours a day and 365.25 days per year, so this time in years is 137 thousand years.

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? 2442 0

Answer : 4. "2311 cub. cm"
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 = 44⇒r = 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.
