Question Detail

The wheel of a motorcycle, 70 cm in diameter makes 40 revolutions in every 10 seconds. What is the speed of the motorcycle in km/hr

30.68 km/hr
31.68 km/hr
32.68 km/hr
33.68 km/hr

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In this type of question, we will first calculate the distance covered in given time.
Distance covered will be, Number of revolutions * Circumference

So we will be having distance and time, from which we can calculate the speed. So let solve.

Radius of wheel = 70/2 = 35 cm
Distance covered in 40 revolutions will be

\begin{aligned}
\text{40 * Circumference } \\
= \text{40 * 2*\pi*r } \\
= 40 * 2* \frac{22}{7}* 35 \\
= 8800 cm \\
= \frac{8800}{100} m = 88 m\\

\text{Distance covered in 1 sec =}\\
\frac{88}{10} \\
= 8.8 m \\

Speed = 8.8 m/s \\
= 8.8*\frac{18}{5} = 31.68 km/hr

\end{aligned}

1. What are the least number of square tiles required to pave the floor of a room 15 m 17 cm long and 9 m 2 cm broad ?

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In this type of questions, first we need to calculate the area of tiles. With we can get by obtaining the length of largest tile.
Length of largest tile can be obtained from HCF of length and breadth.
So lets solve this,

Length of largest tile = HCF of (1517 cm and 902 cm)
= 41 cm

Required number of tiles =
\begin{aligned}
\frac{\text{Area of floor}}{\text{Area of tile}} \\
= \left(\frac{1517\times902}{41 \times 41}\right)\\
= 814

\end{aligned}

2. What will be the cost of gardening 1 meter boundary around a rectangular plot having perimeter of 340 meters at the rate of Rs. 10 per square meter ?

Rs. 3430
Rs. 3440
Rs. 3450
Rs. 3460

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In this question, we are having perimeter.
We know Perimeter = 2(l+b), right
So,
2(l+b) = 340
As we have to make 1 meter boundary around this, so
Area of boundary = ((l+2)+(b+2)-lb)
= 2(l+b)+4 = 340+4 = 344

So required cost will be = 344 * 10 = 3440

3. There is a plot which is rectangular in shape and it area is 460 square metres. What will be breadth of the plot if length of plot is 15% more than the breadth of plot ?

8 mtr
10 mtr
15 mtr
20 mtr

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

\begin{aligned} l*b = 460 m^2 \end{aligned} .. (i)
Lets suppose breadth of plot is = b rnLength will be,\begin{aligned}l=b*\frac{100+15}{100}\\=\frac{115b}{100}\end{aligned} .. (ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get :
\begin{aligned}
\frac{115b}{100}*b = 460 \\
b^2 = \frac{46000}{115} = 400 \\
=> b = \sqrt{400} = 20 meter
\end{aligned}

4. The height of an equilateral triangle is 10 cm. find its area.

\begin{aligned} \frac{120}{\sqrt{3}} cm^2 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{110}{\sqrt{3}} cm^2 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{100}{\sqrt{3}} cm^2 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{90}{\sqrt{3}} cm^2 \end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let each side be a cm, then
\begin{aligned}
\left(\frac{a}{2}\right)^2+{10}^2 = a^2 \\
<=>\left(a^2-\frac{a^2}{4}\right) = 100 \\
<=> \frac{3a^2}{4} = 100 \\
a^2 = \frac{400}{3} \\
Area = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}*a^2 \\
= \left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}*\frac{400}{3}\right)cm^2 \\
= \frac{100}{\sqrt{3}}cm^2
\end{aligned}

5. The area of a square is 69696 cm square. What will be its diagonal ?

373.196 cm
373.110 cm
373.290 cm
373.296 cm

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

If area is given then we can easily find side of a square as,
\begin{aligned}Side = \sqrt{69696} \\
= 264 cm \\
\text{we know diagonal =}\sqrt{2}\times side \\
= \sqrt{2}\times 264 \\
= 1.414 \times 264 \\
= 373.296 cm \end{aligned}
