Mock Test: SSC JE Civil Engineering (CE)- 7 - Question 1

In a queue, Amrita is 10th from the front while Mukul is 25th from behind, and Mamta is just in the middle of the two. If there are 50 persons in the queue, what position does Mamta occupy from the front?

A. 20
B. 19
C. 18
D. 17

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: SSC JE Civil Engineering (CE)- 7 - Question 1 According to the question,

Amrita is 10th from the front, which means there are 9 people ahead of Amrita.

Mukul is 25th from behind, which means that there are 24 people behind him.

If Mamta is exactly between Amrita and Mukul, then there are an equal number of people between Amrita, Mamta, and Mamta, Mukul.

The question states that there are a total of 50 people in the queue; this simply means that there are 7 people between Amrita, Mamta, and Mamta, Mukul.

From this, we can easily derive that Mamta is 18th from the front.

Hence, the correct option is (C).

Mock Test: SSC JE Civil Engineering (CE)- 7 - Question 2

Five people L, M, N, O, and P, are standing in a queue. N stands between L and P. L is just behind M, and M is second in the queue. Who is fourth in the queue?

The drag force exerted by a fluid on a body immersed in the fluid is due to-

A. pressure and viscous forces
B. pressure and gravity forces
C. pressure and surface tension forces
D. viscous and gravity forces

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: SSC JE Civil Engineering (CE)- 7 - Question 107 Viscosity of fluid and the gravitational pull both exert a drag force on the body.

The drag force on an immersed object can be due to various reasons. It also depends on the direction of the object’s movement.
