Answer : 1. "210 kN/mm2"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 210 kN/mm2 Explanation: It is useful to have a property of a material that is independent of the size of the sample and can be use to compare its elastic properties with another - this is called the Modulus of Elasticity for the material. The modulus of elasticity is defined as:   Modulus of elasticity = Stress / Strain   There are three types of moduli. They are : (a) the Young Modulus - tensile and compression longitudinal stress (b) the shear modulus - a shearing stress (c) the bulk modulus - volume changes of the specimen.

Answer : 2. "2 : 3 : 4"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 2 : 3 : 4 Explanation: Seats for Mathematics, Physics and Biology in a school are in the ratio 5 : 7 : 8. Seats for Mathematics, Physics and Biology in a school are 5x, 7x and 8x. There is a proposal to increase these seats by 40%, 50% and 75% respectively. Then Seats for Mathematics, Physics and Biology in a school will be 1.4 X 5x, 1.5 X 7x and 1.75 X 8x and ratio will be 7 : 10.5 : 14  => 2:3:4.

Answer : 1. "0.0625"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 0.0625 Explanation: 25% of 25% means   25/100 of 25/100   i.e, 1/4 of 1/4   or in other words 1/4 x 1/4=1/16   Hence, the answer is 1/16 = 0.0625.

Answer : 1. "Green"
Explanation :

Answer: A) Green Explanation: Mixing of blue and yellow colors make Green Color.                                     RYB (an abbreviation of red–yellow–blue) is a historical set of colors used in subtractive color mixing and is one commonly used set of primary colors. It is primarily used in art and design education, particularly painting. RYB predates modern scientific color theory, which has determined that cyan, magenta, and yellow are the best set of three colorants to combine, for the widest range of high-chroma colors.

Answer : 3. "lose electrons"
Explanation :

Answer: C) lose electrons Explanation: Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion.   Hence, when Ionic bonds are formed metallic atoms tend to lose electrons and become positive ions
