Directions: Read the following information carefully and answer the question that follows.

In a village of Bastar district in Madhya Pradesh, only two types of people live who belong to a tribal class. The first type is known as class A, while the other is known as class B. In that village, there is no other type of person except these two. The activities of both types of people are governed by perfectly patterned norms of social behaviour. Each person of the tribe has to obey the norms. They are rigid about this.

As far as marriage is concerned, the following norms are to be followed:
(A) The people of class A cannot marry any other member of their own class, though they can marry members of class B.
(B) After being married, each male member ceases to be member of that class in which he was born, but automatically he becomes the member of the other class to which his wife belongs.
(C) As far as females are concerned, they remain the members of their own class after being married.

Q. A boy who was born in class B (boy and his wife both can have married and unmarried brothers) can have

Detailed Solution for SSC Stenographer Practice Test - 8 - Question 1

The boy born in class B will marry a girl of class A. So, the daughter will belong to class A. Thus, (1) is false.
Since the boy's daughter will belong to class A, she would marry a boy of class B and so the son-in-law would be from class B. So, (2) is false.
The boy, born in class B, will have mother born in class B and father born in class A. So, his uncle (i.e. mother's brother or father's brother) can be from class A or B.
So, (3) is true.
The boy in class B gets married to a girl in class A and himself becomes of class A.
Their son also belongs to class A, who will marry a girl of class B and himself becomes of class B.
When the son divorces, he reverts to his original class, i.e. A; hence, (4) is false.

SSC Stenographer Practice Test - 8 - Question 8

My flight took off at 2 am from a place at 18N 10E and landed 10 hours later at a place with coordinates 36N 70W. What is the local time when my plane landed?

Detailed Solution for SSC Stenographer Practice Test - 8 - Question 8

Local time varies only with longitudes.
The flight travelled from 10E to 70W longitudes i.e. 80° longitudes.
Time change because of longitude change = 80 × 4 = 320 minutes = 5 hours and 20 minutes
Time at 18N 10E after 10 hour journey = 2 am + 10 hours = 12 pm
Because the flight travelled towards West from East, the local time at 36N 70W
= 12 pm - 5 hrs 20 m = 6:40 am

SSC Stenographer Practice Test - 8 - Question 9

Alex turned a clock on at 3:00 pm. But the clock is defective, due to which it lags behind by 9 minutes after each day (24 hours). What will be the real time when the clock indicates 6:00 am on the 4th day of it's successive working?  

Detailed Solution for SSC Stenographer Practice Test - 8 - Question 9

Time from 3 pm on a day to 6 am after 4 days is 87 hours. Now, 23 hr 51 min on this clock are the same as 24 hr on the correct clock.
That is, on this clock = 24 hr on the correct clock
∴ 87 hr on this clock = hr on the correct clock
= 87 hr and 33 minutes approx. on the correct clock
So, the correct time will be 6:33 am.

SSC Stenographer Practice Test - 8 - Question 10

In a college, a 24-hour watch loses 5 minutes in 3 hours. If it is set correct on Tuesday midnight, then when will the watch show the correct time next?  

Detailed Solution for SSC Stenographer Practice Test - 8 - Question 10

The watch loses 5 minutes in 3 hours.
It loses 1 minute in (3/5) hours.
To show the correct time again, watch must create a 24-hour difference. (Since in one round, an hour-hand covers 24 hours.)
So, it loses 60 minutes in (3/5) × 60 hours or 36 hours.
It loses 24 hours in 36 × 24 hours or 864 hours or 36 days
Therefore, after exactly 36 days, the clock will show the correct time.

SSC Stenographer Practice Test - 8 - Question 11

For a project, a few computer science students form a virtual planet called SRAM. They introduce a new calendar and time period structure where there are 8 days per week, starting Sunday to Saturday and another day called Funday. Every day is of 36 hours and each hour is of 90 minutes. Each minute is of 60 seconds. Hour hand covers the dial twice daily. What is the angle between the hour and minute hand when time is 12.18 am?

Detailed Solution for SSC Stenographer Practice Test - 8 - Question 11

Hour hand:
1 day = 36 hours and the hour hand covers the dial twice every day
So, the dial covers 36/2 = 18 hours in one complete round
One complete angle in the clock dial is 360°.
So, in 1 hour, hour hand moves 360/18 = 20°
So, for 12 hours, hand moves 12 × 20 = 240°
Also, 1 hour = 90 minutes
Now, for 1 minute, hour hand moves (20/90)°
Thus, for 18 minutes, it moves 20/90 × 18 = 4°
So, for 12:18 am, hour hand moves = 240 + 4 = 244°
Minute hand:
Now, minute hand moves 90 minutes to complete one hour.
Thus, for 1 minute, it moves 360/90 = 4°
For 18 minutes, it moves 4 × 18 = 72°
So, the angle between hour hand and minute hand at 12.18 am is 244 - 72 = 172°

SSC Stenographer Practice Test - 8 - Question 24

By solving inequality 3(a - 6) < 4 + a, answer will be

Detailed Solution for SSC Stenographer Practice Test - 8 - Question 24

To solve the inequality 3(a - 6) < 4 + a, we need to simplify and isolate the variable a on one side of the inequality. Here are the steps:
1. Distribute the 3 on the left side of the inequality: 3a - 18 < 4 + a
2. Subtract a from both sides of the inequality: 3a - a - 18 < 4
3. Combine like terms on the left side of the inequality: 2a - 18 < 4
4. Add 18 to both sides of the inequality: 2a < 22
5. Divide both sides of the inequality by 2: a < 11
Therefore, the solution to the inequality 3(a - 6) < 4 + a is a < 11. This means that a is less than 11. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is D: a < 11
