A sentence is split into 3 parts in the 3 options given below. If any part of the sentence has an error – grammatical or otherwise, mark that option as your answer. In case there is no error, mark option ‘d’.
In sentences where the structure is "one of + noun + who" is used, the verb after "who" agrees with the noun used after "one of". In the sentence, the noun is "those writers" which is in plural form. Therefore, it must take a plural verb. This makes the use of "has" incorrect in the sentence. The correct plural verb would be "have". The correct sentence would be:
He is one of those writers who have won acclaim the world over.
What is the number of integral solutions for x3-x2-2x-19=0?
Irrespective of the value of ‘x’ (odd or even), x3 -x2 - 2x will always be even which means the complete expression x3 - x2 - 2x - 19 can NEVER be zero.
All 2 digit numbers where both places occupy the same number, in an ascending order with a vertical line separating their pair of next consecutive numbers. This sequence follows with the same condition of 2 digit numbers. Consider 10 as a first two digit number. The number of these vertical lines separating such pairs is ______.
The pair of such numbers are
11/12; 22/23; 33/34; 44/45; 55/56; 66/67; 77/78; 88/89;
Middle number is the average of the numbers on both sides.
Average of 6 and 4 is 5
Average of (7+4) and (2+1) is 7
Average of (1+9+2) and (1+2+1) is 8
Average of (4+1) and (2+3) is 5
Therefore, Average of (3) and (3) is 3
If x2-y2= 702, how many ordered pairs of solutions for x and y exist such that x, y are natural numbers
x2-y2= 702 i.e.(x-y)(x+y)= 702
Factories 702 as 702= 2×3×3×3×13 Since x and y are both natural numbers, (x-y) and (x+y) should be both even or both should be odd. In order to get possible values of x and y we should write 702 as a product of 2 natural numbers which should be a like i.e. both even or both odd. This is not possible since 702 has only 1 even factor leading to (d) as the answer.
What is the respective ratio between the expenditure made by university on research work and purchase of books for library?
Total expenditure is 60 lakhs.
Expenditure made by university on research work
= 8% of 60 lacs = 8 × 60 lacs/100 = 4.8 lacs
Expenditure made by university on purchase of books for library
= 6% of 60 lacs = 6 × 60 lacs/100 = 3.6 lacs
Hence ratio between the expenditure made by university on research work and purchase of books for library
= 4.8 : 3.6 = 4:3

Roll numbers given to a select of students are unique 4 digit numbers. One roll number is picked up at random, what is the probability that the chosen number is divisible by 11 or 13 ?
In the question. We have to count 4 digit numbers which are multiples of 11, 13 and 143 (product of 11 and 13).
The first 4 digit multiple of 11, 13 as well as 143 is 1001 = 11×91= 13×77= 143×7
The last 4 digit multiple of 11 is 9999 =11×909 and that of 13 is 9997 =13×769 and for 143 is 9867 (=143×69)

A double cover butt riveted joint is used to connect two flat plates of 250 mm width and 16 mm thickness as shown in figure. There are sixteen power driven rivets of 22 mm diameter at a pitch of 50 mm in both direction on either side of the plate. Two cover plates of 10 mm thickness are used. The capacity of the joint in tension (in kN) with permissible bearing and shearing stresses as 300 MPa and 100 MPa respectively, is
Strength of one rivet in double shear
Strength of the riveted joint in double shear
= 16 x 86.75 = 1388 kN
Strength of one rivet in bearing = d'×t×σb
=(22+1.5)×16×300×10-3
=112.8 kN
Strength of rivet joint in bearing
=16 x 112.8 = 1804.8 kN
Strength of plate in tearing = (250-4 x 23.5) x 16 x 150 x10-3
= 374.4 kN
Thus, the strength of joint will be governed by tearing and it will be equal to 374.4 kN.

In the pre-tensioning method, which of the following statements are correct?
1) The tension in the concrete is induced directly by external force
2) Tension is induced in the tendons before concreting

Water flows at a steady and uniform depth of 2m in an open channel of rectangular cross section having base width of 4m and laid at a slope of 1 in 10000. If it is desired to obtain critical flow in the channel by providing a hump in the bed. Take Manning’s coefficient = 0.01. Calculate the height of hump (in meters) required for the critical flow
Area A = 4 ×2 = 8, Perimeter P = 4 + 4 = 8
R = (A/P) = 1 m
Discharge per unit width q = 8/4 = 2
We know that the minimum specific energy corresponds to the point of critical depth and is given by 1.5 times the critical depth
Critical depth = (q2/g)(1/3) = 0.74 m
Minimum specific energy is 1.5 × 0.74 = 1.11 m
Specific energy should be same at all points (neglecting hydraulic losses)
So, E = Eminimum + h (this energy is at position of hump)
E = y + v2/(2*g) = 2.05
h = 2.05 – 1.11 = 0.94 m

• Vane shear test is a useful method of measuring the shear strength of clay. It is a cheaper and quicker method. The test can also be conducted in the laboratory.
• The laboratory vane shear test for the measurement of shear strength of cohesive soils, is useful for soils of low shear strength (less than 0.3 kg/cm2) for which triaxial or unconfined tests cannot be performed.

While running in similar direction, their speeds reduces by 50% and get 0.7 m closer in every second. The speeds s1 and s2 of the motor cyclist will be:
As the two motor cyclist were running along in opposite directions, so their speed will be:

Take recirculation ratio = 1
Use formula for efficiency = (100)/(1 + 0.44(√(W/V*F)))
V is volume, F is recirculation factor and W is BOD applied to filter
Find the efficiency of filter
Domestic sewage = 150 × 40000/1000 = 6000 m3/day
Industrial sewage = 0.25 × 1000000/1000 = 250 m3/day
Total BOD of domestic = 6000 × 200/1000 = 1200 kg/day
Total BOD industrial = 250 × 600/1000 = 150kg/day
Total BOD = 1200 + 150 = 1350 kg/day
BOD applied to filter = 1350 × (1 – 0.35) = 877.5 kg/day
Filter volume = BOD applied to filter / permissible BOD loading
= 877.5 × 10000/8000 = 1096.9 m3

A water course commands an irrigated area of 800 hectares. The intensity of irrigation of rice this area is 55%. The transplantation of tice takes 12 days and total depth of water required by the crop is 45 cm on the field during the transplantation period. During the transplantation period, the useful rain falling on the field is 10 cm, then the discharge required in the water course, if losses of water is to be 20% in the water course, is _______cumec.
As we know the relation
Here, B = 12 days
∆ = 45 – 10 = 35 cm or 0.35 m
D = Duty of irrigation water in hectares/cumec
=296.23 hactares/ cumec
Since, the losses in the canal are 20%
Hence, the duty of water at the head of the water course = 296.23 x 0.80 = 236.98 hectares/cumec
Now, total area under rice plantation = 800 x 0.55 = 440 hectares
