TECHNICAL BASED QUESTIONS:
1. Moment of inertia of a body depends on its ___________
(a) mass only
(b) axis of rotation only
(c) both (a) and (b)
(d) none of these.
The correct answer is : C
2. Which one of the following statements is true?
(a) electrostatic force obeys inverse square law while gravitational force does not
(b) both gravitational force and electrostatic force are repulsive in nature
(c) gravitational force is much weaker than electrostatic force
(d) all the above are true.
The correct answer is : C
3. The work done by a torque in rotating a body about an axis is equal to the change in________
(a) rotational K.E. of the body
(b) moment of the momentum of the body
(c) translational K.E. of the body
(d) all are true.
The correct answer is : A
4. 6.4 × 10–19 joule is approximately
(a) 4 electron volt
(b) 6 electron volt
(c) 8 electron volt
(d) 1 electron.
The correct answer is : A
VERBAL REASONING :
1 The “ground-up” and “trees-down” theories are the only theories explaining
flight in birds.
True
False
Cannot say
EXPLAINATION: Cannot Say – Although the “ground-up” and “trees-down” theories are stated to be theories of flight in birds, they are not stated to be the only two theories explaining flight in birds. Therefore, the correct answer is “Cannot Say”.
Q2 All dinosaurs had hollow bones.
True
False
Cannot say
EXPLAINATION: Cannot Say – The passage states that other feathered dinosaurs also had hollow bones, not that all dinosaurs (non-feathered) also had hollow bones. Therefore, the correct answer is “Cannot Say”.
Q3 There is no scientific consensus regarding how birds evolved poweredflight.
True
False
Cannot say
EXPLAINATION: True – The passage states that further research is required to conclusively verify the process in which birds evolved powered flight. Similarly, it is stated that the evolution of powered flight in birds is still debated. Therefore, the correct answer is “True”.
NUMERICAL REASONING
(B) 6,850
(C) 43,500
(D) 4,880
(E) Cannot tell from data
The data you need is in both the pie-chart and the table. Step 1 – The pie-chart shows that 16% of Directors hold shares, so 100 – 16 = 84% do not hold shares Step 2 – Calculate the total number of director shares at 30 April 2009
Step 3 – Calculate 84% 16% = 4,880 84% = 4,880 x 84 / 16 = 25,620 Thus the correct answer is (A) 25,620.
