HP Patwari Mock Test - 9 - HP Patwari MCQ

Let the required fraction be 'm'.
As per given conditions, we can say that

Given,

Selling price = Rs. 72

Discount = 10% 

SP = MP

Where, SP = Selling price, MP = Marked price, D = Discount%

Let marked price = Rs. x

∴ SP

⇒ 72 = 0.9x

∴ x = Rs. 80

On discount of 25%

= 80 x (75/100)

= 80 x 0.75

= Rs. 60 

∴ If the discount rate is 25% then the selling price of the product is Rs. 60.

The given word is TRIANGLE.

Concept:

The number of ways in which n letters can be arranged = n!

Calculation:

Total number of letters in TRIANGLE = 8

So, the required number of combinations = 8! = 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 = 40320

∴ The required value is 40320.

Given,

Curved surface area of X = 196% of Curved surface area of Y

∵ Curved surface area of sphere ∝ (radius)²

(Radius of X)² = 1.96 × (Radius of Y)²

Taking square root on both sides,

Radius of X = 1.4 × Radius of Y ---(1)

Similarly,

Curved surface area of Z = 144% of Curved surface area of Y

(Radius of Z)² = 1.44 × (Radius of Y)²

Taking square root on both sides,

Radius of Z = 1.2 × Radius of Y ---(2)

Dividing (1) by (2), we get,

Radius of X/Radius of Z = 7/6 ---(3)

Now, Volume of sphere ∝ (Radius)³

= (7/6)³ = 343/216

∴ Ratio of volumes of sphere X and sphere Z = 343 ∶ 216

Given:

We know that,

Volume of sphere = (4/3)π  × (radius)³ = (π/6) × (diameter)³

Volume of sphere melted cm³

Volume of sphere with diameter 40 cm cm³

Volume of sphere with diameter 20 cm cm³

Volume of sphere with diameter 30 cm cm³

Volume of metal remaining cm³

Now,

Weight of remaining metal = 325 kg

This means that weight of 19500π cm³ metal is 325 kg

∴ Weight of sphere melted = Weight of 36000π cm³ metal = 600 kg

As the earth is slightly flattened at the poles, the linear distance of a degree of latitude at the pole is a little longer than that at the equator. Earth is not a perfect sphere. Its shape is an oblate spheroid. This just means that it flattens at the poles and widens out at the equator. So, Statement 1 is correct.

The radius of the earth is different at both poles and the equator. The equatorial diameter( twice of radius) is 12756 km but, the polar diameter is 12713 km. So, Statement 2 is not correct.

The Earth is wider at the equator than from pole to pole, mainly because the centrifugal forces of its rotation make it bulge outwards. So, Statement 3 is not correct.

Pandavani is a lyrical folk form of narration of scenes/events from Mahabharata without the use of props. It usually has a lead singer/narrator and two accompanying musicians with instruments. It is popular in tribes in Chattisgarh especially the Pardhi community. Traditionally, it was practiced only by men, but since the 1980s women have also been performing.

There are two styles of Pandavani: Vedamati and Kapalik.

In Vedamati, the artist sits on the floor and performs in a simple manner. In Kapalik, the performance is lively, where the artist enacts the scenes/characters and there is a lot of improvisation. Jhaduram Dewangan (Vedamanti style) and Teejan Bai (Kapalik style) are the most renowned performers of Pandavani. Some of the contemporary artists are Ritu Verma, Shantibai Chelak and Usha Barle.

Simbalbara National Park is a national park in India, located in Sirmaur District, Himachal Pradesh.

It is located in the Paonta Valley of Sirmaur District along its border with Haryana. The vegetation consists of dense Sal forests with grassy glades. The protected area was created in 1958 as the Simbalbara Wildlife Sanctuary with 19.03 km². In 2010, 8.88 km² were added to it and it was made into a National Park, covering an area of about 27.88 square kilometers (10.76 sq mi). There is a perennial stream in the valley. The Travel and Tourism department of Himachal Pradesh has preserved the park in its natural form.

Decomposers break down complex organic matter into inorganic substances like carbon dioxide, water, and nutrients and the process is called decomposition.

Dead plant remains such as leaves, bark, flowers, and dead remains of animals, including faecal matter, constitute detritus, which is the raw material for decomposition.

The important steps in the process of decomposition are fragmentation, leaching, catabolism, humification, and mineralization.

Detritivores (e.g. earthworms) break down detritus into smaller particles. This process is called fragmentation.

By the process of leaching, water-soluble inorganic nutrients go down into the soil horizon and get precipitated as unavailable salts. Therefore, statement 1 is correct.

Bacterial and fungal enzymes degrade detritus into simpler inorganic substances. This process is called catabolism.

It is important to note that all the above steps in decomposition operate simultaneously on the detritus.

Humification and mineralization occur during decomposition in the soil.

Humification leads to the accumulation of a dark-coloured amorphous substance called humus that is highly resistant to microbial action and undergoes decomposition at an extremely slow rate. Therefore, statement 2 is correct.

• Being colloidal in nature it serves as a reservoir of nutrients.
• The hummus is further degraded by some microbes and the release of inorganic nutrients occurs by the process known as mineralization.

Temperature of winter rises is the effect of Chinook in the central plains in the USA.

In the cold winter months of regions east of the Rocky Mountains, a strong, dry, warm wind sometimes blows from the mountains across the land. Chinook winds develop when warm, moist air blows from the Pacific Ocean in the northwest region of North America toward the Rocky Mountain range.

The air mass cools as it climbs the mountains, bringing rain or snow to the peaks.
