The books are ____ my schoolbag.

Detailed Solution for DSSSB AE Civil Tier 1 Mock Test - 1 - Question 2
Answer: B.

Direction: Read the following passages carefully and answer the question that follows.
The ancient Harappan Civilization emerged, flourished and collapsed under a steadily weakening monsoon, according to new research findings, that scientists say, provide the strongest evidence yet to link its risk and fall to changing climate. A team of scientists has combined multiple sets of date to show that weakening monsoon and reduced river water initially stimulated intensive agriculture and urbanisation, but later precipitated the decline and collapse of the subcontinent's earliest cities. The scientist said their research also suggests that a larger river, summed to be the mythical Saraswati, which once watered the Harappan Civilization's heartland between the suggests it was a glacier fed river with origins in the Himalyas.

Directions: In the following question, a sentence is given with a blank. You have to fill the blank with one of the words given as options in order to make the sentence contextually and grammatically correct.

Nobody rules out another surge of the diabolical pathogen, but research and resilience have readied us to _______________ better.
Detailed Solution for DSSSB AE Civil Tier 1 Mock Test - 1 - Question 7

Let us first learn the meanings of the given words:

Contest (verb): engage in dispute about.

Assuage (verb): make (an unpleasant feeling) less intense.

Lull (verb): calm or send to sleep, typically with soothing sounds or movements.

Mitigate (verb): make (something bad) less severe, serious, or painful.

Appease (verb): assuage or satisfy.

The sentence implies that research and resilience have now empowered us to fight against the spread of virus, thus ‘contest’ and ‘lull’ are contextually weak options. ‘Assuaging’ and 'appeasing' are grammatically inapt as we need a verb in its simple form after 'to'. Thus, only ‘mitigate’ fits here grammatically and contextually.

Hence, option D is correct.

Similarly, Young’s modulus can also be expressed using rigidity modulus and Poisson’s ratio as-E=2G(1+2μ)

Combining the above two-equation and solving them to eliminate Poisson’s ratio we can get a relation between Young’s modulus and bulk modulus k and modulus of rigidity as -E=9KG/(G+3K)
