Question : If $256, K, K, 81$ are in proportion, and $K$ is positive, then what is the value of $K$?
Option 1: 156
Option 2: 126
Option 3: 144
Option 4: 164
Correct Answer: 144
Solution : Given: $256, K, K, 81$ are in proportion, and $K$ is positive. Use the formula, Mean proportional = $\sqrt{ab}$ where $a$, and $b$ are the numbers. According to the question, $K=\sqrt{81\times 256}$ $\therefore K=9\times 16=144$ Hence, the correct answer is 144.

Question : Directions: In a certain code language, HED is coded as 160, FBG is coded as 84. What is the code for BEJ in that code language?
Option 1: 60
Option 2: 100
Option 3: 80
Option 4: 120
Correct Answer: 100
Solution : Given: HED is coded as 160, and FBG is coded as 84.
Multiply the positional value of HED, to obtain the required code – H→8; E→5; D→4 ⇒ 8 × 5 × 4 = 160 Thus, HED is coded as 160. And, FBG is coded
Question : Which of the following is referred to as "Young Fold Mountains"?
Option 1: Aravallis
Option 2: Nilgiris
Option 3: Himalayas
Option 4: Vindhyas
Correct Answer: Himalayas
Solution : The correct answer is the Himalayas.
The Himalayas are young fold mountains, meaning that they were formed in the most recent period of geological history. The Indian and Eurasian Plates interact with one another as they converge, forming the Himalayas.
Question : Directions: Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow (s) from the statements. Statements: I. Some M are Q. II. All V are Q. Conclusions: I. Some Q are M. II. No M is V.
Option 1: Both conclusions I and II follow
Option 2: Only conclusion I follows
Option 3: Neither conclusion I nor II follows
Option 4: Only conclusion II follows
Correct Answer: Only conclusion I follows
Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statements is as follows –
Let's analyze the conclusions – Conclusion (I): Some Q are M – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that the circles representing Q and M overlap and have
Question : Directions: In a certain code language, ACCENT is coded as CCATNE. What is the code for VENDOR in that code language?
Option 1: VENROD
Option 2: NVEDOR
Option 3: NEVROD
Option 4: NEVORD
Correct Answer: NEVROD
Solution : Given: ACCENT is coded as CCATNE.
Divide the letters of the ACCENT into two parts and then write them in the reverse order. ACCENT→ACC / ENT Reverse the order of the letters→CCATNE So, ACCENT is coded as CCATNE. Similarly, VENDOR→VEN / DOR Reverse the order
Question : Directions: Two statements are given followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. Assuming the statements to be true, even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusions logically follow (s) from the statements. Statements: Some cars are fast. Some fast is slow. Conclusions: I. Some cars are not slow. II. Some slow is fast.
Option 2: Only conclusion II follows
Option 4: Only conclusion I follows
Correct Answer: Only conclusion II follows
Let's analyse the conclusions – Conclusion (I): Some cars are not slow – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that there is no direct relation between cars and
Question : Directions: In a certain code language, GRAY is coded as 718125, FOMK is coded as 6151311. How will CBHL be coded in that code language?
Option 1: 23812
Option 2: 32812
Option 3: 38212
Option 4: 32821
Correct Answer: 32812
Solution : Given: GRAY is coded as 718125, and FOMK is coded as 6151311.
The code is obtained by writing the positional values of the alphabet in the given words. GRAY→G(7), R(18), A (1), Y(25) = 718125 FOMK→F(6), O(15), M(13), K(11) = 6151311 CBHL→C(3), B(2), H(8), L(12)
Question : Directions: A is B's brother, C is A's mother, D is C's father, and B is D's granddaughter. How is B related to F who is A's son?
Option 1: Aunt
Option 2: Cousin
Option 3: Niece
Option 4: Daughter
Correct Answer: Aunt
Solution : As per the given information the family tree will be as follows –
Here, the quadrilateral represents the male and the circular figure represents the female in the figure.
So, from the above family tree, B is the Aunt of F. Hence the first option
Question : If the momentum of a body is doubled, the kinetic energy is:
Option 1: becomes 1/4 times
Option 2: unchanged
Option 3: doubled
Option 4: becomes 4 times
Correct Answer: becomes 4 times
Solution : The correct option is becomes 4 times.
Velocity and momentum are directly related. An object's velocity is twice as high if its momentum doubles, but its mass does not (the object's velocity stays below the speed of light). When the velocity doubles,
