To solve this, let's break down Hemant's movements step by step and visualize his path:
  1. Hemant starts from his house and walks 3 km eastward.
  2. He turns right and walks 2 km south.
  3. He turns left and walks 1 km east.
  4. He turns right and walks 2 km south.
  5. He turns right and walks 1 km west and reaches his school.
Now, let's consider the overall east-west and north-south movement:
  • East-West: Hemant initially walked 3 km east, then 1 km east, and finally 1 km west. So, the net eastward distance is 3 + 1 − 1 = 3 km.
  • North-South: Hemant walked 2 km south, then another 2 km south, so he walked a total of 2 + 2 = 4 km south.
The minimum distance from Hemant’s house to the school can be found using the Pythagorean theorem (since he moved in perpendicular directions):

Thus, the minimum distance between Hemant’s house and his school is: D: 5 km

A starts from his house and moves towards B’s house which is 4km North.  After walking for three-fourth of the distance he finds B coming towards him along with C, who is A’s enemy. Wanting to avoid him, A takes a left turn and runs for a distance of 2kms.Now, if from this point (say ‘P’) he decides to go to B’s house

How far is A, from his own house?

A. √5km   

B. √3km            

C. √7km            

D. √13km        

Correct answer is option is 'D'. Can you explain this answer?            

Vertex Academy answered
1. A walks three-fourths of the distance towards B's house, which is:
(3/4) × 4 km = 3 km (north).
After walking 3 km north, A takes a left turn and runs 2 km west.
2. Now, we have a right-angled triangle, where:
- One leg (north) = 3 km,
- Another leg (west) = 2 km.
3. The distance from A’s current position (P) to his house is the hypotenuse of this right-angled triangle:
Distance = √(3² + 2²) = √(9 + 4) = √13 km.
Thus, the distance from A’s current position to his own house is √13 km.

Sushant started from his house and walked 5km north of his house. Then he turned left and walked 3km, then he turned right and walked 5km. Again he turned right and walked 3km. Where is his final destination from his house?
  • a)
    Back to his house                 
  • b)
    7.5 km North-West
  • c)
    7.5 km North-East               
  • d)
    10 km North
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Vertex Academy answered
To solve this question, let's analyze Sushant's path step-by-step based on the directions provided:
  1. Sushant starts at his house and walks 5 km north.
  2. He then turns left and walks 3 km west.
  3. Next, he turns right and walks 5 km north again.
  4. Finally, he turns right and walks 3 km east.
Now let’s assess Sushant's final position relative to his starting point:
  • North-South movement: He walked 5 km north, then another 5 km north, totaling 10 km north.
  • East-West movement: He walked 3 km west and then 3 km back east, which brings him back to the original east-west position he started from.
Given this analysis, Sushant's final destination is directly north of his house without any deviation east or west. Therefore, the correct answer is:
D: 10 km North

Of all the students (A) / Rita was less worried (B) / when the date for the annual examination was announced. (C) / no error (D)
  • a)
    Of all the students
  • b)
    Rita was less worried
  • c)
    when the date for the annual examination was announced
  • d)
    no error
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Gita choudhary answered
Explanation:

The sentence is grammatically correct, and the error lies in the word choice.

- Of all the students: This phrase is correct as it sets up the comparison between Rita and the other students.
- Rita was less worried: This phrase is incorrect as it should be "Rita was the least worried," as it is clear that Rita is worried but less so than the other students. Using "less worried" implies that there is someone else who is even less worried than Rita, which is not stated in the sentence.
- When the date for the annual examination was announced: This phrase is correct as it gives the reason for Rita's level of worry.
- No error: This option is incorrect as there is an error in the sentence.

Therefore, option B is the correct answer as it correctly identifies the error in the sentence.

The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), 2023, replaced the Indian Penal Code, 1860, to modernize India’s criminal justice framework. It defines a criminal offence as an act or omission that causes harm to society or individuals and is punishable by law. The BNS requires both mens rea (guilty mind) and actus reus (guilty act) for most offences, except in strict liability cases, where only the act suffices for conviction.
Section 103 of the BNS defines murder as intentionally causing a person’s death or performing an act knowing it is likely to cause death, punishable by life imprisonment or death. However, Section 105 provides for culpable homicide not amounting to murder if the act occurs under grave and sudden provocation, reducing the punishment to imprisonment up to seven years. Section 69 defines criminal conspiracy as an agreement between two or more persons to commit an illegal act, accompanied by an overt act in furtherance of the agreement, punishable by imprisonment up to seven years for serious offences. Under Section 303, theft is the dishonest taking of movable property from another’s possession without consent, punishable by up to seven years’ imprisonment, a fine, or both. For minor thefts (e.g., property worth less than ₹5,000), courts may impose community service instead (Section 303(2)).
The BNS also recognizes the right of private defence under Section 96, allowing reasonable force to protect oneself or others, provided the force is proportionate to the threat. Additionally, the BNS emphasizes restorative justice, encouraging courts to consider victim compensation in sentencing.
Consider the following scenarios: Rhea, in a heated argument, slaps Mohan, who falls, hits his head, and dies. Rhea claims she was provoked by Mohan’s abusive language. In another case, Karan and Simran plan to steal a bicycle worth ₹3,000 from a shop, with Simran distracting the shopkeeper while Karan takes the bicycle.
For stealing a bicycle worth ₹3,000, what punishment could the court impose on Karan and Simran under the BNS?
  • a)
    Imprisonment up to seven years only
  • b)
    Imprisonment up to three years and a fine
  • c)
    Community service or a fine
  • d)
    Mandatory imprisonment for seven years
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Crafty Classes answered
Section 303(2) allows community service for theft of property worth less than ₹5,000, applicable to the ₹3,000 bicycle.

He had to cut a sorry figure (A) / when he realised that he had (B) / no any money in his purse.(C) / no error (D)
  • a)
    He had to cut a sorry figure
  • b)
    when he realised that he had
  • c)
    no any money in his purse
  • d)
    no error
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Jayant Mishra answered
The error in the sentence is in part (C). The phrase "no any money" is incorrect. It should be either "no money" or "any money" depending on the context, but in this case, "no money" is the correct form.
The corrected sentence is:
He had to cut a sorry figure when he realized that he had no money in his purse.
So, the correct answer is:
3. no any money in his purse

  • d)
    Ö3km                                
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Vertex Academy answered
Let's analyze the path taken by A and the distances involved:
  1. A moves towards B's house: A starts moving north towards B's house which is 4 km away.
  2. A covers three-fourth of the distance: He covers 4 × 3/4 = 3 km towards the north.
  3. A takes a left turn: At this point, A is 1 km away from B's house (since he has covered 3 km out of 4 km). He then takes a left turn, which would be towards the west and runs 2 km.
Now, A is 1 km south of B's house and 2 km west of a direct line north from B’s house. To find the distance from point P (A's new location) to B's house, we use the Pythagorean theorem:

Thus, A would need to cover a distance of: B: √5km  

Namratha walks 14 metres towards west, then turns to her right and walks 14 meters and then turns to her left and walks 10 metres. Again turning to her left she walks 14 metres. What is the shortest distance (in metres) between her starting point and her present position?  
  • a)
    38m
  • b)
    28m
  • c)
    24m
  • d)
    10m
  • e)
    None of these
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Hridoy Das answered
Let's break down Namratha's movements step by step:
  1. First Movement: She walks 14 meters west.
  2. Second Movement: She turns right and walks 14 meters north.
  3. Third Movement: She turns left and walks 10 meters west.
  4. Fourth Movement: She turns left again and walks 14 meters south.
Now, let's analyze her position.
  • After the first movement, she's 14 meters west of the starting point.
  • After the second movement, she's 14 meters west and 14 meters north of the starting point.
  • After the third movement, she's 24 meters west and 14 meters north of the starting point.
  • After the fourth movement, she moves 14 meters south, so she's now 24 meters west and at the same latitude as her starting point (because the south movement cancels out the north movement).
To find the shortest distance between her starting point and her present position, we just need to calculate the straight-line distance (which is the horizontal distance since her vertical displacement is zero).
Since she is 24 meters west of her starting point, the shortest distance is:
Distance=24 meters\text{Distance} = 24 \text{ meters}Distance=24 meters
So the correct answer is 24 meters (Option 3).
