  • Question 28
    1 / -0

    Choose the correct option which changes the underlined clause into a phrase.

    My mother has to handle tasks which are complicated.

    Solution

    A phrase does not contain a subject and verb and, consequently, cannot convey a complete thought. So, from the clause we remove the subject or the relative pronoun 'which' and the verb to make it a phrase. 'Complicated' modifies the tasks. So, it is used as an adjective. Hence, option 3 is correct. Other options make the sentence ungrammatical.

     

  • Question 29
    1 / -0

    Choose the option that correctly changes the voice of the given sentence.

    The sentence is in past continuous tense. So, the passive form will have the structure 'was/were + being + past participle form of verb'. 'Clothes' is plural. So, 'were' will be used.

    Solution

    Rs. 11,700 is distributed among A, B and C in the ratio 10 : 3 : 13.

    Share of A = Rs. 11,700 × 10/26 = 450 × 10 = Rs. 4500

    Share of B = Rs. 11,700 × 3/26 = 450 × 3 = Rs. 1350

    Share of C = Rs. 11,700 × 13/26 = 450 × 13 = Rs. 5850

    C gives 20% of his share to B.
    ⇒ Amount given by C to B = Rs. 5850 × 20/100 = Rs. 1170

    B's share finally = Rs. 1350 + Rs. 1170 = Rs. 2520
    Difference between the shares of A and B finally = 4500 - 2520 = Rs. 1980

    1 / -0

    If 4p + 5q = 24 and pq = 8, find the value of 16p2 + 25q2.

    Solution

    We have 4p + 5q = 24 and pq = 8
    Squaring both sides,
    (4p + 5q)2 = (24)2
    (4p)2 + (5q)2 + 2 (4p) (5q) = (24)2
    16p2 + 25q2 + 40pq = 576
    16p2 + 25q2 + 40 × 8 = 576
    16p2 + 25q2 = 576 – 320
    16p2 + 25q2 = 256

    1 / -0

    If 16(1‒ x) = 16x, then (4x)² is equal to

    Solution

    16(1 ‒ x) = 16x
    i.e. 16 - 16x = 16x
    i.e. x = 1/2
    So, (4x)² = (4 x 1/2)² = 4

    What is the ratio between the curved surface area of a cylinder and a sphere of the same radius if height of the cylinder is twice of radius?

    Solution

    Let the radii of both = r and height of cylinder = 2r
    Then, ratio between curved surface areas = 2π × r × h : 4π × r × r,
    = 2 × r × 2r : 4 × r × r = 1 : 1

    What is the factorised form of 4x2 + 17x - 15?

    Solution

    4x2 + 17x - 15
    = 4x2 + 20x - 3x - 15
    = 4x(x + 5) - 3(x + 5)
    = (x + 5) (4x - 3)

     

  • Question 38
    1 / -0

    The base of a triangular field is four times its altitude. If the cost of leveling the field at Rs. 102.50 per metre2 is Rs. 7,380, then find its base and height.

    Solution

    Area of the field = Total cost/Rate = 7,380/102.50 = 72 m2
    Let altitude = x metres and base = 4x metres
    Then, (1/2) × 4x × x = 72
    x2 = 36
    x = 6 m
    So, height = 6 m and base = 24 m

     

  • Question 39
    1 / -0

    The floor of a terrace consists of 4,000 tiles which are rhombus shaped and length of its diagonals are 75 cm and 50 cm. Find the total cost of polishing the floor, if the cost per m² is Rs. 280.

    Solution

    In each rhombus shaped tile, length of the diagonals = 75 cm and 50 cm
    Therefore, area of each tile = (1/2) × 75 × 50 = 1,875 cm2
    Therefore, area of 4,000 tiles = 4,000 × 1,875 cm2 = 75,00,000 cm2 = 75,00,000/10,000 = 750 m2
    For 750 m2, cost of polishing = Rs. 280 × 750 = Rs. 2,10,000

     

  • Question 40

    Which of the following statements is/are false?

    a. Fossil fuels are an important source of energy because they originate from living things.
    b. The strong heating of coal in the presence of air is called destructive distillation of coal.
    c. The ultimate source of energy is solar energy.

    Which of the following ores can be reduced simply by heating in the air?

    Solution

    The metal oxides which occur near the bottom of activity series can be reduced to free metal by the action of heat alone. No reducing agent is required for this process.
    Mercury occurs in nature as a sulphide ore, cinnabar (HgS). When HgS is roasted in the presence of excess air, it gets converted into HgO, which is unstable and decomposes to form mercury.
    2HgS(s) + 3O2(g) → 2HgO(s) + 2SO2(g)
    2HgO(s) → 2Hg(l) + O2(g)

    How much work is done in moving a charge of 2 coulombs from a point of 120 V to a point of 150 V?

    Solution

    Work done in moving a charge in the potential difference is given by:
    W = V × Q
    Here, potential difference, V = 150 - 120 = 30 V

    Which of the following parts of an eye provides most of the optical power to the eye?

    Solution

    The cornea is the eye's outermost layer. It is the clear, domeshaped surface that covers the front of the eye. Cornea provides most of the optical power to the eye.

    Speciation cannot occur in groups of individuals that

    Solution

    Speciation means formation of new species from already existing species. This occurs due to gradual accumulation of changes over hundreds of generations. Since changes in the genetic makeup do not occur in asexual reproduction, the chances of speciation are reduced to almost nil for individuals reproducing by asexual methods.
