Question : If $b=5$, determine the value of an expression $\left(\frac{5}{b}+5b\right)\left(\frac{25}{b^{2}}-25+25 b^2\right)$ using an identity.

Option 1: 25,726

Option 2: 15,626

Option 3: 15,438

Option 4: 25,636

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 15,626


Solution : $(\frac{5}{b}+5 b)(\frac{25}{b^{2}}-25+25 b^2)$
This equation is in the form of $(x+y)(x^{2}–xy+y^{2})$
We know $x^{3}+y^{3}=(x+y)(x^{2}–xy+y^{2})$
So, $x = \frac{5}{b}$ and $y = 5b$
Putting the value of $b = 5$ we get,
$x^{3}+y^{3} = (\frac{5}{5})^{3} + (5\times 5)^{3}$
Or, $x^{3}+y^{3}= 1+15625 = 15626$
Hence, the correct

Question : Steel is used to make a hemispherical bowl that is 0.37 cm thick. The bowl's inner radius is 6 cm. Find the bowl's outside curved surface area (take $\pi=\frac{22}{7}$).

Option 1: 532 cm2

Option 2: 255.0548 cm2

Option 3: 484 cm2

Option 4: 523.4107 cm2

Team Careers360 16th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 255.0548 cm2


Solution : Given: Steel is used to make a hemispherical bowl that is 0.37 cm thick.
The bowl's inner radius is 6 cm.
According to the formula,
⇒ Outer radius = 6 + 0.37 = 6.37 cm
$\therefore$ Curved surface area = 2 × 227

Question : If a speed of rotation of the earth increases, the weight of the body

Option 1: decreases

Option 2: increases

Option 3: remains \: the\: same

Option 4: may\: increase \: or\: decrease

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: decreases


Solution : The correct answer is decreases.

According to centrifugal acceleration formulae, as angular speed increases, the net acceleration due to gravity decreases. As a result, the weight will reduce.
Alternatively, as the rotational speed of earth increases, the gravity at equator decreases and as a result the

Question : What is the LCM of $\left(8 x^3+80 x^2+200 x\right)$ and $\left(4 x^4+16 x^3-20 x^2\right)$?

Option 1: $8 x^2(x+5)^2(x-1)$

Option 2: $8 x^2(x-1)^2(x+5)$

Option 3: $4 x^2(x-1)^2(x+5)$

Option 4: $4 x^2(x+5)^2(x-1)$

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $8 x^2(x+5)^2(x-1)$


Solution : Consider, $(8 x^3+80 x^2+200 x)$
Taking $8x$ as common, we get,
$=8x(x^2+10x+25)$
$=8x(x^2+5x+5x+25)$
$=8x(x(x+5)+5(x+5))$
$=8x(x+5)^2$
Now consider, $(4 x^4+16 x^3-20 x^2)$
Taking $4x^2$ as common, we get,
$=4x^2(x^2 + 4x-5)$
$=4x^2(x^2-x+5x-5)$
$=4x^2(x(x-1)+5(x-1))$
$=4x^2(x-1)(x+5)$
$\therefore$ LCM $=8x^2(x+5)^2(x-1)$
Hence, the correct answer is $8x^2(x+5)^2(x-1)$.

Question : Study the given chart and answer the following question.

What is the central angle corresponding to the production of steel by Kerala?

Option 1: $82^\circ$

Option 2: $65.8^\circ$

Option 3: $75.2^\circ$

Option 4: $72^\circ$

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $72^\circ$


Solution : From the pie chart provided:
Total production = 220 + 240 + 180 + 160 + 200 = 1000
Production in Kerala = 200
Central angle = $\frac{\text{Production in kerala}}{\text{Total production}}\times 360^\circ$
= $\frac{200}{1000}\times 360^\circ$
= $72^\circ$
Hence, the correct answer is $72^\circ$.
