Answer : 2. "60 kms"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 60 kms Explanation: Let 'd' be the distance and 's' be the speed and 't' be the timed=sxt45 mins = 3/4 hr and 48 mins = 4/5 hrAs distance is same in both cases;s(3/4) = (s-5)(4/5)3s/4 = (4s-20)/515s = 16s-80s = 80 km.=> d = 80 x 3/4 = 60 kms.

Answer : 1. "210 kN/mm2"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 210 kN/mm2 Explanation: It is useful to have a property of a material that is independent of the size of the sample and can be use to compare its elastic properties with another - this is called the Modulus of Elasticity for the material. The modulus of elasticity is defined as:   Modulus of elasticity = Stress / Strain   There are three types of moduli. They are : (a) the Young Modulus - tensile and compression longitudinal stress (b) the shear modulus - a shearing stress (c) the bulk modulus - volume changes of the specimen.

Answer : 2. "2 : 3 : 4"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 2 : 3 : 4 Explanation: Seats for Mathematics, Physics and Biology in a school are in the ratio 5 : 7 : 8. Seats for Mathematics, Physics and Biology in a school are 5x, 7x and 8x. There is a proposal to increase these seats by 40%, 50% and 75% respectively. Then Seats for Mathematics, Physics and Biology in a school will be 1.4 X 5x, 1.5 X 7x and 1.75 X 8x and ratio will be 7 : 10.5 : 14  => 2:3:4.
