Answer : 2. "Rs. 441"
Explanation :
Answer: B) Rs. 441 Explanation: Given principal amount = Rs. 8000 Time = 3yrs Rate = 5% C.I for 3 yrs = 8000 x 105100 x 105100 x 105100 - 8000= Rs. 1261 Now, C.I for 2 yrs = 8000 x 105100 x 105100= Rs. 820 Hence, the required difference in C.I is 1261 - 820 = Rs. 441

Answer : 2. "3' > 2' > 1'> NH3"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 3' > 2' > 1'> NH3 Explanation: The order of basicity in ammonia is different in gaseous phases vs. aqueous phases due to hydrogen bonding. So in gaseous phases it's the well known: 3' > 2' > 1'> NH3. Just so we're on the same page, this is due to the inductive effect of electron donating alkyl groups--they destabilize the lone pair on nitrogen atom, making nitrogen more basic. But in aqueous phase, the order is slightly different: 2'> 1'> 3' > NH3.

Answer : 1. "36 kmph"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 36 kmph Explanation: Let the speed of goods truck be 'p' kmphDistance covered by goods truck in 10hrs (4+6) = Distance covered by other truck in 4 hrs. 10p = 4 x 90p = 36kmph.Therefore, the speed of the goods truck is p = 36 kmph.
