Answer : 2. "400 mts"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 400 mts Explanation: Let the length of the 1st train = L mts Speed of 1st train = 48 kmph Now the length of the 2nd train = L/2 mts Speed of 2nd train = 42 kmph Let the length of the bridge = D mts Distance = L + L/2 = 3L/2 Relative speed = 48 + 42 = 90 kmph = 90 x 5/18 = 25 m/s(opposite) Time = 12 sec => 3L/2x25 = 12 => L = 200 mts Now it covers the bridge in 45 sec => distance = D + 200 Time = 45 sec Speed = 48 x5/18 = 40/3 m/s => D + 200/(40/3) = 45 => D = 600 - 200 = 400 mts Hence, the length of the bridge = 400 mts.

Answer : 2. "Neutron"
Explanation :
Answer: B) Neutron Explanation: In nuclear physics, nuclear fission is either a nuclear reaction or a radioactive decay process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into smaller parts (lighter nuclei). The fission process often produces free neutrons and releases a very large amount of energy. Thus, The Nuclear Fission is caused by the impact of Neutrons.

Answer : 4. "1/7"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 1/7 Explanation: Multiplicative inverse is nothing but a reciprocal of a number. It is defined as one of a pair of numbers that when multiplied with another number equals the number 1. Multiplicative inverse or reciprocal of 7 is 7 x n = 1 => n = 1/7. Hence, Multiplicative inverse or reciprocal of 7 is 1/7.
Q: Statement : The byproducts obtained from animals such as hairs, skins, horns, etc. contain at least 45 per cent food protein. Indian scientists have developed methods to segregate 50 per cent of this protein. They have used an enzyme developed in Russia for destruction of soya-proteins. Conclusions: A. Indian scientists cannot develop enzymes. B. If a suitable method involving less cost is developed then many more food protein would be obtained. 1300 05b5cc6d6e4d2b4197774e6a7

Answer : 3. "Neither A nor B follows"
Explanation :
Answer: C) Neither A nor B follows Explanation: There is no indication that Indian scientists are incapable of developing enzymes. There could be any number of reasons why Indian scientists used Russian enzymes. So conclusion A does not follow. In addition, cost is not discussed in the passage at all. There is no mention of a correlation between cost and extraction of proteins. Thus, conclusion B does not follow either.

Answer : 3. "48 lit"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 48 lit Explanation: Let the amount of juice and water in original mixture '4x' litre and '3x' litre respectively. According to given data, 4x/3x+6 =8/7 28x=24x+48 28x–24x=48 4x = 48 x = 12 Amount of juice = 4x = 4×12 = 48 litre.
