SSC CGL Tier 1 Mock Test - 5 - SSC CGL MCQ

So, ‘W’ is the correct answer.

The number that represents the women who are athlete is shown below:

So, "64" women are athlete.

The logic follows here is:
Column wise:
Third term={(First term−Second term):2} ² 

First column ⇒27,15,36
{(27−15)÷2} ²
=(12÷2) ²
=6²
= 36
Second column ⇒30,14,64
{(30−14)÷2} ²
=(16÷2) ²
=8²
= 64
Third column ⇒40,22,?
?={(40−22)÷2} ²
=(18÷2) ²
=9 ²
= 81

2 + 2 + 4 = 8

And  8 + 1 + 7 =16

Similarly,

1 + 6 + 3 = 10

And 4 + 9 + 7 = 20

Here, the sum of the digits of the second group of numbers is twice the sum of the digits of the first group of numbers.

As, D+7 = K

H+7 = O

L+7 = S

P+7 = W

Similarly,

F+7 = M

J+7 = Q

N+7 = U

R+7 = Y

So, the answer will be YUQM.

36 is the product of the digits of the square of 7.
(7² =49⇒4×9=36)
Similarly,
(9² =81⇒8×1=8)

The correct answer is Black cotton Soil.

Key Points

Black cotton soils

• It shows swelling and shrinkage behaviour on wetting and drying. Hence, Statement 1 is correct.
• Black Cotton Soil also consists of the excess Montmorillonite mineral.
• These show volumetric changes with the change in atmospheric conditions.
• Black cotton soil shows swelling when moisture content increases and shrinkage behaviour when moisture content decreases. 
• Under reamed piles are used for these types of soils.
• As black cotton soils are expansive soils i.e having swelling and shrinkage behaviour and due to this Lightly loaded structures are more susceptible to damage as a result of volume changes in the soil. Therefore these soils need to be stabilized first before loading.
• Investigation says that lime is a good stabilizing agent for the construction of a road in black cotton soil.
• Lime forms the bonding between the soil particles which is missing in black cotton soil and hence stabilizes.

Additional Information

Alluvial Soils

• Alluvial soils are formed mainly due to silt deposited by the Indo-Gangetic-Brahmaputra rivers. In coastal regions, some alluvial deposits are formed due to wave action.
• Rocks of the Himalayas from the parent material. Thus the parent material of these soils is of transported origin.
• They are the largest soil group covering about 15 lakh sq km or about 46 per cent of the total area.
• They support more than 40% of India’s population by providing the most productive agricultural lands.

Peaty, and Marshy Soil/Bog Soil

• This soil originates from areas where adequate drainage is not possible. It is rich in organic matter and has high salinity. They are deficient in potash and phosphate.

Desert Soil

• This soil is deposited by wind action and is mainly found in the arid and semi-arid areas like Rajasthan, West of the Aravallis, Northern Gujarat, Saurashtra, Kachchh, Western parts of Haryana, and the southern part of Punjab.
• It lacks moisture content. Humus content is less, and Nitrogen is originally low but some of it is available in the form of nitrates.

• Constitution Day is celebrated every year on 26 November to make the citizens of India aware of the Constitution and remind them of the constitutional values.
• On 26 November 1949, the Constituent Assembly of India adopted its constitution. However, it was implemented on 26 January 1950.

The Cocos Plate is not a tectonic plate. A tectonic plate (also called a lithospheric plate) is a massive, irregularly-shaped slab of solid rock, generally composed of both continental and oceanic lithosphere.  

The major plates are as follows:

1. Antarctica (and the surrounding oceanic) plate.
2. North American Plate (with western Atlantic floor separated from the South American plate along with the Caribbean islands).
3. South American Plate (with the western Atlantic floor separated from the North American plate along with the Caribbean islands).
4. Pacific plate
5. India-Australia-New Zealand plate
6. Africa with the eastern Atlantic floor plate.
7. Eurasia and the adjacent oceanic plate. 

India's ISRO and Japan's JAXA are working on a joint lunar polar exploration (LUPEX) mission and the two space agencies have been working on the mission that aims to send a lander and rover to the Moon’s south pole around 2024. So, statements 1 and 2 are correct.

• JAXA is likely to provide the under-development H3 launch vehicle and the rover ISRO would be responsible for the lander. So, statement 3 is incorrect.
• The Lunar Polar Exploration mission would demonstrate new surface exploration technologies related to vehicular transport and lunar night survival for sustainable lunar exploration in Polar Regions.Explore lunar polar region suitability for establishing a lunar base for sustainable activities
• Other targets of the mission include demonstration of lunar and planetary surface exploration technologies e.g. vehicular transport and overnight survival.

So, statement 1 and 2 only is correct.

Onions are part of the allium family of vegetables and herbs, which also include chives, garlic, scallions, and leeks. Allium vegetables have been cultivated for centuries for their characteristic, pungent flavors and for their medicinal properties. The most common types are red, yellow, and white onions.

Christopher Columbus is credited with bringing onions to India.

Onions contain flavonoids as nutrients.

Chromium elements in the onion control blood pressure in the body.

Chemical syn-propanediol-S-oxide in the onion is caused by tears in our eyes.

Radon is the heaviest noble gas with a density of 0.00973  g/cm³ and an atomic number of 86. The reason xenon might be considered by some people to be the heaviest noble gas is that it can, under certain conditions, form the Xe-Xe chemical bond of  Xe₂.

We know that, SI = Prt/100

Where, SI = simple interest, P = principal, r = rate of interest, t = number of years

Let the principal be P, and the rate be r.

Given,

SI = P/9

And t = r

Hence,

The given expression is,
tan36 ^∘+tan9 ^∘+tan36 ^∘⋅tan9 ^∘

ConsiderA=36^∘  and B=9^∘ 

We know that,

⇒ 1 - tan 36^∘. tan9^{∘ =} tan36^∘ + tan9^∘
⇒ tan 36^∘ + tan 9^∘ + tan36^∘ . tan 9^∘ = 1 

Given:

AB || CD

∠APQ = 50°

∠PRD = 127°

∠APQ = ∠x      ---- (Corresponding angle)

∠x = 50° 

∠APR = ∠PRD      ---- (Corresponding angle)

⇒ ∠APQ + ∠y = 127° 

⇒ 50° + ∠y = 127°

⇒ ∠y = 127° - 50° 

⇒ ∠y = 77° 

 ∠y - ∠x = 77° - 50° 

= 27° 

∴ The value of y – x is 27°.

Let the distance of the place from the starting point be x km.

The speed of the man along the stream  = 5 + 1.5 = 6.5 km/hr

The speed of the man against the stream  = 51.5 = 3.5 km/hr

or, 10x = 6.5 x3.5

Let the mixture be 1 liter.

Wine : Water = 4 : 1

∴ Wine = 4/5 liters and Water = 1/5 liters

Now, let 'A' liters be spilled,

Wine spilled 

Water removed 

Now, 'A' liters water is added,

So Water quantity 

Wine Water quantity 

And, 

Given,

We know that, 

Now keep on assuming

Let the total work = 42 units ( L.C.M of 21,14)

Efficiency of A  units/day

Efficiency of A  units/day

⇒ Total efficiency of (2 + 3) = 5  units

∴ No. of days taken by A and B to complete the work = 42/5 days

For the given figure:

O is the center of the circle.

AC is the diameter.
ADB = 120° -----(i)

We know ACBD is a cyclic quadrilateral
∴∠ACB+∠ADB=180 ^∘ …(i)

Putting (i)  in (ii)
∴∠ACB=60^∘
 and ∠CAB=30^∘

AC = 2 X 6 = 12 cm

Area of triangle  cm

Let A, B and C get 3x, 5x  and 8x.
⇒16x=3200
⇒x=200
So, the share of B = 5x = 5 × 200 = 1000

The share of C = 8x = 8 × 200 = 1600

Difference between the share of B and C = 1600 - 1000 = 600

Hence, the correct option is (B)

Among refers to when the items are part of a group, or are not specifically named. We generally use 'among' when we refer to more than two things.

Here, inter-relationships are of the teachers, but not really specific. So it is both among and between. (usually when it is more than 2).

So, the correct sentence is: the entire institution and the inter-relationships among and between its parts.

In the given blank, we need to use 'understanding' for the noun's abstract and innovative ideas. Here the subject of the sentence is 'skills' and the verb is 'involve' which is a transitive verb and the objects are 'abstract and innovative ideas'

So the correct sentence is: These skills involve understanding abstract and innovative ideas..

Attenuate means to make something weaken, smaller, or less effective.
