Answer : 4. "140 mts"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 140 mts Explanation: Speeds of two trains = 30 kmph and 58 kmph => Relative speed = 58 - 30 = 28 kmph = 28 x 5/18 m/s = 70/9 m/s Given a man takes time to cross length of faster train = 18 sec Now, required Length of faster train = speed x time = 70/9 x 18 = 140 mts.

Answer : 2. "5/36"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 5/36 Explanation: The two events mentioned are independent. The first roll of the die is independent of the second roll. Therefore the probabilities can be directly multiplied. P(getting first 4) = 1/6 P(no second 6) = 5/6 Therefore P(getting first 4 and no second 6) = 1/6 x 5/6 = 5/36

Answer :
Explanation :
From the assumption and trial and error method, last three digits sum must leave the same digit as the answer. It is possible only if the answer must be units digit number leaving tens digit as carry. And the possible 3rd digit is 5. Since 5 + 5 + 5 = 15 Now, 2nd step is 1 + x + x + x = 5 => 3x = 4 It is possible with x = 8. 8 + 8 + 8 + 1 = 25 leaving 2 as carry. Now, 3rd step is 2 + x + x + x = 5 => x = 1 Hence, the three dgits are 1, 8, 5. 185 + 185 + 185 = 555.

Answer : 1. "detecting and locating the position of objects such as Aeroplanes"
Explanation :
Answer: A) detecting and locating the position of objects such as Aeroplanes Explanation: RADAR - RAdio Detection And Ranging. A radar system consists of a transmitter producing electromagnetic waves in the radio or microwaves domain, a transmitting antenna, a receiving antenna (often the same antenna is used for transmitting and receiving) and a receiver and processor to determine properties of the objects. Radar is an object-detection system that uses radio waves to determine the range, angle, or velocity of objects. It can be used to detect aircraft, ships, spacecraft, guided missiles, motor vehicles, weather formations, and terrain. Radio waves from the transmitter reflect off the object and return to the receiver, giving information about the object's location and speed.
