In a test given by Prof Virus during the minors, Raju gets 32% marks and fails by 20 marks whereas Chatur gets 30 marks more than passing marks while scoring 42% marks. The marks required to get twice the passing marks are _______.
The difference in percentage marks obtained by Raju and Chatur is 42 – 32 = 10% whereas the difference in their marks is 20 + 30 = 50 (Raju gets 20 marks less while Chatur gets 30 marks more than pass marks).
This gives us 1% = 5 marks and the passing marks as 20 + 32% = 180.
The required marks = 360 (twice the passing marks)

Deposit with flocculated structure is formed when
The process by which individual particles of clay aggregate into coltlike masses or precipitate into small lumps. Flocculation occurs as a result of a chemical reaction between the clay particles and another substance, usually salt water.
In the case of flocculated structure, there will be edge to edge and edge to face contact between the particles. This type of formation is due to the net electrical forces between the adjacent particles at the time of deposition being attractive in nature.
The concentration of dissolved minerals in water leads to formation of flocculated structures with very high void ratio as in the case of marine deposits.

A turbine develops 2516 kW at 240 rpm. The torque in the shaft is approximately:
Where, T = torque and N = speed in rpm
So, T = 60P/(2πN) = (60×2516×1000)/(2×3.14×240) = 100108Nm = 100kNm

In a pair of overlapping photographs, the mean distance between two principal points both of which lie on the datum is 6.375 cm. At the time of photography, the aircraft was 600 m above the datum. The camera has a focal length of 150 mm. in the common overlap a tall chimney 120 m high with its base in the datum surface is observed. Determine the difference of parallax for top and bottom of chimney.
Scale of the photograph for datum elevation,
S = f/H = (150/1000)/600
= 1/4000
For the datum elevation,
B/b = H/f
Or B = H/f . b
= 4000×6.375/100 = 255 m
The parallax for the top and bottom of the chimney are calculated from the equation
P = Bf / (H-h)
For bottom of chimney, h = 0
Hence p1 = 255×150/600 = 63.75 mm
For the top of chimney, h = 120 m
Hence p2 = 255×150 / (600-120)
= 79.69 mm
Difference of parallax is given by,
Δp = p2 – p1
= 79.69 – 63.75 = 15.94 mm.
Solution of dy/dx = y2 × x3 at x = √5 and y = 2 is
dy/dx = y2 × x3
⇒ dyy2 = x3dx
Integrating both sides.
The value of integral 
exdx calculated using simpson's 1/3rd Rule, with 10 subintervals is use the table given
y2 + y2 + y6 +...+ yn]
= 1/3 × 0.1[y0 + 4y1 + y3+ y5 + y7 + y9 +2
y2 + y4 + y6 + y8 + y10]
= 1/3 × 0.1[2.718+4(3.004+3.669+4.482
+5.474+6.686)+23.320+4.055+4.953+6.050+7.389]
0.1/3[2.718+423.315+218.378+7.389)
= 0.1/3[140.1232]
exdx = 4.67077
In the following table, x is a discrete random variable and p(x) is the probability density. The difference between the variance & the standard deviation is
+4×0.1×5×0.15+6×0.15
= 0.2+0.5+0.45+0.4+0.75+0.9 = 3.2
Ex2 = ∑ixi2pi = (1)2 × 0.2+(2)2×0.25
+(3)2×0.15+(4)2×0.1
+(5)2×0.15+(6)2×0.15
=1×0.2+4×0.25+9×0.15
+16×0.1+25×0.15+36×0.15
= 0.2+1+1.35+1.6+3.75+5.4=13.3
= Ex2-Ex2
Variance = 13.3-(3.2)2=13.3-10.24=3.06
Standard Deviation σ= 
= 
= 1.749
Difference of variance & standard deviation = 3.06 – 1.749 = 1.311
A fair coin is tossed independently five times. The probability of the event "the number of times tails show up is less than the number of times heads show up” is
Coin is tossed 5 times
P(number of tails < number="" of="" />
= p5x & oT or 4x & IT or 3x & 2T
= p(exactly 5 neads) + p(exactly 4 heads)
+ p(exactly 3 heads)
Consider the following equations
3x – y – z + 2w = 0
3x + y – z - 2w = 0
12x + 3y – 4z - 6w = 0
The system of equations will be
The above system of equations can be written as AX = B.
∴ Rank (A) = Rank 2 and number of variables = 4
∴ The system is consistent having many solutions.
