Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 16

The given data can be represented diagrammatically as follows.

Triangles ABC, ADB and ADC are right angled triangles.

By Pythagoras theorem,

BC2 = AB2 + AC2

⇒ (BD + DC)2 = (AD2 + DB2) + (AD2 + DC2)

⇒ (4 + DC)2 = 62 + 42 + 62 + DC2 (∵ (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2)

⇒ 16 + 8DC + DC2 = 36 + 16 + 36 + DC2

⇒ 8DC = 72

⇒ DC = 72/8 = 9 cm

BC = BD + DC = 4 + 9 = 13 cm

∴ BC = 13 cm

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 17

Hence (d) is correct.

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 18

In a square, the length of diagonal is 16 cm. The total surface area of a hemisphere is twice the area of square. Find the volume of hemisphere?(in cubic cm) (Use π = 3.14)

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 18

Formula Used:

Total area of a hemisphere = 3π r2

Volume of a hemisphere = 2/3π r3

Calculation:

Side length of square = Diagonal length / √2 = 16/√2

Area of square = 16/√2 + 16/√2 = 128 square cm

The total surface area of a hemisphere is twice the area of square.

Let radius of hemisphere be R cm.

⇒ 3 × 3.14 × R2 = 2 × 128

⇒ 9.42 × R2 = 256

⇒ R = √256/9.42 = √27.17 = 5.21 cm

Volume of hemisphere = 2/3 × 3.14 × (5.21)3 = 296.04 cubic cm

∴ Volume of hemisphere is 296.04 cubic cm

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 22

Aman goes upstream in a motorboat and returns back to the same point in 50 minutes. If speed of the current is 5 km/hr and total distance travelled by him is 20 km, then what is the speed of the motorboat in still water?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 22

Let speed of the boat in still water be x km/hr

Speed of current = 5 km/hr

⇒ Speed upstream = Speed of boat - Speed of current

⇒ u = x - 5

Speed downstream = v = x + 5

Distance travelled upstream and downstream = 20 km (∵ 10 km each for upstream and downstream)

⇒ Time taken to go upstream = 10/(x - 5) = t1

⇒ Time taken to go downstream = 10/(x + 5) = t2

Total time = 50 min = 50/60 hours = 5/6 hours

⇒ t1 + t2 = 5/6

⇒ (x - 25) (x + 1) = 0

∴ x = 25 ∵ x can’t be negative.

∴ Speed of boat in still water = 25 km/hr

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 23

If u : v : w = 1 : 5 : 13, then what will be the value of (3u + 2v + 4w) / (2w - u - 4v)?

Let u, v and w be x, 5x and 13x.

(3u + 2v + 4w) / (2w - u - 4v)

= (3x + 10x + 52x)/ (26x - x - 20x)

= 65x/5x

= 13

∴ Ans = 13

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 26

A truck after covering 1 / 6th of the total distance decreases its speed by 2 / 3 of its usual speed and reaches destination 1 hr 40 minutes late. Find the usual time taken (in hours) by the truck to cover the complete distance?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 26

Let the total distance be 6x and the usual speed is v.

The actual time taken by the truck ⇒ (x / v) + [5x / (v / 3)] = 16x / v

The usual time the truck would have taken ⇒ 6x / v

⇒ Difference in time = 16x / v - 6x / v = 5 / 3 [1 hr 40 minutes = 5 / 3 hour]

⇒ x / v = 1 / 6

The usual time is taken by the truck to cover the complete distance = 6x / v = 6 × 1 / 6 = 1

∴ the usual time taken by the truck to cover the complete distance is 1 hour.

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 27

An ore contains 25 % of an alloy that has 90 % iron. Other than this, in the remaining 75% of the ore, there is no iron. How many kilograms of the ore are needed to obtain 60 kg of pure iron?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 27

Concept:

Unitary method:

The unitary method is a method in which you find the value of a unit and then the value of a required number of units.

Calculation:

Given:

25 % of an alloy has 90 % iron, Pure iron = 60 kg

Let there be 100 kg of ore.

∵ 25 % or 25 kg of an alloy has 90 % iron

⇒ Amount of iron = 90/100 × 25 = 22.5 kg

So, 22.5 kg of iron is contained in 100 kg alloy

⇒ 1 kg of iron is contained in 100 / 22.5 kg alloy.

∴ 60 kg of iron is contained in 100 / 22.5 × 60 = 266.66 kg alloy.

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 28

In a class of 45 students, 40% are girls and the remaining are boys. The average marks of the girls are 64 and that of the boys is 60. What is the average marks of the whole class?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 28

Total number of students = 45

Number of girls in class = 45 × 40/100 = 18

Number of boys in class = 45 - 18 = 27

Average marks of girls = 64

Sum of marks of girls = 64 × 18 = 1152

Average marks of boys = 60

Sum of marks of boys = 60 × 27 = 1620

Total sum of marks of all class = 1152 + 1620 = 2772

Average marks of whole class = 2772/45 = 61.6

Solutions A and B contain acid and water in the ratio 4 ∶ 3 and 9 ∶ 5, respectively. Four litres of solution A is mixed with 5 litres of solution B. What is the ratio of acid and water in the resulting mixture?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 29

Given:

Solutions A and B contain acid and water in the ratio 4 ∶ 3 and 9 ∶ 5

Calculation:

Total acid after mixing of two solution = 4 × (4/7) + 5 × (9/14)

⇒ 16/7 + 45/14

⇒ (32 + 45)/14

⇒ 77/14

⇒ 11/2

Total water after mixing of two solution = 4 × (3/7) + 5 × (5/14)

⇒ 12/7 + 25/14

⇒ (24 + 25)/14

⇒ 49/14

⇒ 7/2

Ratio = 11/2 : 7/2

⇒ 11 : 7

∴ The ratio of acid and water in the resulting mixture is 11 : 7.

SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 30

In ΔABC, O is any point inside the triangle. If OA = 12 cm, OC = 15 cm, ∠AOB = ∠BOC = ∠COA and also ∠BAC = 60°. Find OB.

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL (Tier II) Practice Test - 4 - Question 30

Given:

ΔABC,

OA = 12 cm, OC = 15 cm

∠AOB = ∠BOC = ∠COA

∠BAC = 60°

Concept used:

Concept of similarity

Calculation:

If ∠AOB = ∠BOC = ∠COA., then all the angles are 120° [Complete angle = 360°]

In ΔOAC

Let ∠OAC be θ

So, ∠OAB = 60° - θ [∠OAC + ∠OAB = 60°]

∠OCA = 60° - θ [sum of angles of triangle is 180°]

In ΔAOB

∠OBA = θ [sum of angles of triangle is 180°]

From the above calculation, we can say

ΔOAB ∼ ΔOCA [AAA Similarity]

So,

OA/OC = OB/OA

⇒ 12/15 = OB/12

⇒ OB = 122 ÷ 15

⇒ OB = 144 ÷ 15

⇒ OB = 9.6

∴ The length of OB is 9.6 cm.
