Here are two analogous groups, Group-I and Group-II, that list words in their decreasing order of intensity. Identify the missing word in Group-II.
Group-I: Abuse Insult Ridicule
Group-II: ________ Praise Appreciate
The correct answer is (a) Extol.
Reason: The words in Group-I (Abuse Insult Ridicule)
follow a decreasing order of negative intensity. Similarly, the words in Group-I (Praise Appreciate) follow an increasing order of positive intensity.
"Extol" means to praise highly, which fits as the word of highest intensity in Group- II before "praise".
Had I learnt acting as a child, I __________ a famous film star.
Select the most appropriate option to complete the above sentence.
The correct answer is (d) could have been.
Reason: The sentence expresses a hypothetical situation in the past (learning acting as a child), which did not actually happen.
To convey this, the past perfect conditional form "could have been" is used. It indicates a possibility that could have occurred under different circumstances.
The 12 musical notes are given as , and . Frequency of each note is times the frequency of the previous note. If the frequency of the note C is 130.8 Hz, then the ratio of frequencies of notes and is:
2
12 Musical Notes: and B.
Frequency of Note First Term,
Common ratio,
Note term,
Note term.,
Hence, option (b) is correct.
The following figures show three curves generated using an iterative algorithm. The total length of the curve generated after 'Iteration n' is:
Note: The figures shown are representative.
Iteration 0:
Length after iteration segment .
Iteration-1:
length of each segment .
Total length after Iteration-1 (5 segments)
Iteration-2:
Length of each segment .
Total length after iteration-2 = (25 segments)
Thus; segment formed is:
Length after iteration
Option (b) is correct.
Which one of the following plots represents , where is a nonzero real number?
Note: The figures shown are representative.
Given:
Option (a) is correct.
Identify the option that has the most appropriate sequence such that a coherent paragraph is formed:
P. Over time, such adaptations lead to significant evolutionary changes with the potential to shape the development of new species.
Q. In natural world, organisms constantly adapt to their environments in response to challenges and opportunities.
R. This process of adaptation is driven by the principle of natural selection, where favourable traits increase an organism's chances of survival and reproduction.
S. As environments change, organisms that can adapt their behaviour, structure and physiology to such changes are more likely to survive.
The correct answer is (b) .
- The paragraph starts with 'Q', introducing the concept of organisms adapting to the concept of organisms adapting to their environments.
- 'S' follows, explaining that those who adapt are more likely to survive.
- Then, '' describes national selection as the driving force behind adaption.
- Finally, 'P' concludes by stating that these adaptations can lead to evolutionary changes
A stick of length one meter is broken at two locations at distances of and from the origin (0), as shown in the figure. Note that . Which one of the following is NOT a necessary condition for forming a triangle using the three pieces?
Note: All lengths are in meter. The figure shown is representative.
Three sides of triangles:
Necessary conditions for forming a triangle:
(1)
(2)
(3)
From options, (d) is incorrect condition and thus, correct answer.
Eight students (P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, and W) are playing musical chairs. The figure indicates their order of position at the start of the game. They play the game by moving forward in a circle in the clockwise direction.
After the round, student behind leaves the game. After round, student behind Q leaves the game. After round, student behind leaves the game. After round, student behind leaves the game. Who all are left in the game after the round?
Note: The figure shown is representative.
After round: S leaves { they are moving clockwise, move anti-clockwise to go backwards}
After round:
After round: R leaves, Similarly
After 1round: student behind U leaves,
But U left after round 2.
Question is incorrect, hence MTA.
The table lists the top 5 nations according to the number of gold medals won in a tournament; also included are the number of silver and the bronze medals won by them. Based only on the data provided in the table, which one of the following statements is INCORRECT?
Total No. of Medals Won:
From above, given statements in option (a) and (b) is true.
Thus, statement in option (c) is incorrect.
No. of awards won by Canada
No. of awards won by Japan
Awards (Canada) (Japan)
Thus, statement in option (d) is correct.
Hence, option (c) is only incorrect and is the answer.
An organization allows its employees to work independently on consultancy projects but charges an overhead on the consulting fee. The overhead is 20% of the consulting fee, if the fee is up to
₹ 5,00,000. For higher fees, the overhead is ₹ 1,00,000 plus 10% of the amount by which the fee exceeds ₹ 5,00,000. The government charges a Goods and Services Tax of 18% on the total amount (the consulting fee plus the overhead). An employee of the organization charges this entire amount, i.e., the consulting fee, overhead, and tax, to the client. If the client cannot pay more than ₹ 10,00,000, what is the maximum consulting fee that the employee can charge?
Let consultation fee
Total amount paid by client
Given that the client can only pay
Hence, option (b) is correct.
