Correct Answer : C

Each packet weighs 300 g.

Convert everything to one unit and divide by the number of packets (three dozen = 36):

\[ \begin{aligned} \text{Total} &= 4.8 + 2.5 + 3.5 = 10.8\ \text{kg} \\ &= 10800\ \text{g} \\ \text{Each packet} &= \frac{10800}{36} = 300\ \text{g} \end{aligned} \]

The trap is the mixed units: the raisins are given in grams (2500 g = 2.5 kg). 250 g and 500 g do not come from any correct conversion, and 650 g would need a much larger total.

Correct Answer : A

Here, \(a = 1\), \(d = 3\), and \(n = 20\). The formula for the sum of the first n terms of an A.P. is \(S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2a + (n-1)d]\). So, \(S_{20} = \frac{20}{2}[2(1) + (20-1)3] = 10[2 + 19 \times 3] = 10[2+57] = 10 \times 59 = 590\).

Correct Answer : C

\[ A = P\left(1 + \frac{R}{100}\right)^{n}, \qquad \text{CI} = A - P, \qquad \text{SI} = \frac{PRn}{100} \]

Half-yearly compounding halves the rate and doubles the number of periods.

\[ \text{rate} = 5\% \text{ per half-year}, \qquad n = 2 \]

\[ A = 15000 \times (1.05)^{2} = 15000 \times 1.1025 = \text{Rs. } 16{,}537.50 \]

Annual compounding at 10% would give Rs. 16,500; the extra Rs. 37.50 is the second half-year's 5% on the first half-year's Rs. 750.

Correct answer: S

Q is in the middle, on the fourth step of seven. P is above T but below R, and V lies between P and Q, so R, P and V occupy the three steps above Q in that order downwards. T lies between Q and U and U between T and S, which fills the three steps below Q as T, then U, then S. Reading from the top: R, P, V, Q, T, U, S - so S is on the bottom step.

Correct Answer : D

Ram now faces South-West.

Facing East, a 45° clockwise turn brings him to South-East. Turning 270° anticlockwise is the same as turning 90° clockwise, which takes him from South-East to South-West.

North-East is what you get by making the 270° turn clockwise instead, and North-West by reversing both turns.

Measuring directions clockwise from North in degrees: East is 90, the 45° clockwise turn gives 135 (South-East), and turning 270° anticlockwise gives 135 - 270 = -135, the same as 225, which is South-West. North would need a net turn of 90° anticlockwise from East.

Correct Answer : C

The opposite face shows 3.

On a standard die, opposite faces always add up to 7: 1 is opposite 6, 2 opposite 5, and 3 opposite 4. So when 4 is on top, 3 is on the bottom.

1, 2 and 6 are opposite 6, 5 and 1 respectively, and all of those are on the side faces when 4 is on top.

Correct answer: Control unit

The control unit fetches each instruction from memory, decodes it to work out what is required, and then issues the timing and control signals that make the other units carry it out. The logic unit performs the arithmetic and comparisons it is told to, storage holds data, and input merely delivers it.

The correct order is \(\mathrm{Al_2O_3 < MgO < Na_2O < K_2O}\).

Basicity of an oxide increases as the element becomes more metallic - that is, down a group and to the left across a period. \(\mathrm{Al_2O_3}\) is amphoteric, MgO weakly basic, and \(\mathrm{Na_2O}\) and \(\mathrm{K_2O}\) strongly basic, with potassium the most electropositive of the four.

The filament of an electric bulb is tungsten.

It has the highest melting point of any metal, 3,422°C, so it can be run white-hot without melting, and its high resistivity makes it glow at a modest current. It is coiled, and coiled again, to pack a long filament into a small space.

Correct Answer : B

Correct answer: Dr B. R. Ambedkar

Dr B. R. Ambedkar chaired the Drafting Committee, appointed on 29 August 1947 with seven members, which prepared the draft Constitution for the Assembly’s consideration. The distinction the question turns on is between chairing the Drafting Committee and presiding over the Assembly itself. Dr Rajendra Prasad was President of the Constituent Assembly; Ambedkar chaired the committee that wrote the text and defended it clause by clause in debate. The other committees were chaired by different figures: Nehru led the Union Powers and Union Constitution Committees and moved the Objectives Resolution, and Patel chaired the Advisory Committee on Fundamental Rights and Minorities as well as the Provincial Constitution Committee. Sir B. N. Rau, as Constitutional Adviser, prepared the initial draft on which the committee worked - a contribution often overlooked. Ambedkar is nevertheless the chief architect, and it is his defence of the document in the Assembly that gives the phrase its force.

Correct Answer : B

Correct answer: Wheat

Wheat is the principal rabi crop of India. Rabi crops are sown in October and November as the monsoon withdraws and harvested in March and April, growing through the cool dry season on residual soil moisture, winter rain from western disturbances, and irrigation. The other rabi crops are barley, gram, peas, mustard, linseed and lentils. Rice, jute and cotton are all kharif crops, sown with the arrival of the monsoon in June and harvested in September and October. Maize, jowar, bajra, ragi, groundnut, soyabean and sugarcane belong with them. Wheat needs cool weather at sowing and warm dry weather at ripening, which confines it largely to the northern plains - Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana and Madhya Pradesh. Punjab and Haryana have the highest yields, helped by assured irrigation and the high-yielding varieties introduced during the Green Revolution. India is the world’s second largest producer of wheat after China.
