Answer : 2. "3"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 3 Explanation: According to the given data, P + Q = 41 ......(1) R - 1 = P + 2 R = P + 3 and P + 4 = Q - 1 => Q = P + 5 ....(2) From (1)&(2) P = 18 Q = 18 + 5 = 23 R = 18 + 3 = 21 => P/S = 3/4 => S = 4/3 x 18 = 24 Required Difference = S - R = 24 - 21 = 3.

Answer : 1. "+6"
Explanation :
Answer: A) +6 Explanation: We will rewrite the formula as an equation. 2K + 2Cr + 7O = 0 The zero comes from there being no overall charge on the compound. Each oxidation number is represented by the element's symbol. Since this compound is not a peroxide or superoxide, the oxidation value for O is -2 K being in group 1 has a +1 charge and therefore has an oxidation number of K is +1 Now, by putting known values in we have: 2(+1) + 2(Cr) + 7(-2) = 0 2 + 2Cr -14 = 0 2Cr = +12 Cr = +6.

Answer : 3. "Sound waves"
Explanation :
Answer: C) Sound waves Explanation: Light and Radio waves are both different frequency/wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation, which consists of two components electric and magnetic of perpendicular, transverse waves. Sound, on the other hand, is a longitudinal wave which oscillates parallel to it's medium (back and forth instead of up and down).

Answer : 2. "437"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 437 Explanation: Given number series is 514 470 ? 415 404 Here the pattern it follows is 514 514 - 44 = 470 470 - 33 = 437 437 - 22 = 415 415 - 11 = 404 Hence, the missing number in the given number series is 437.
