Answer : 1. "30 days"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 30 days Explanation: Given K=4L -->K+L = 4L+L = 5L These 5L people can complete the work in 24 days, which means L alone can do the work in (24 x 5)=120 days. Hence, K alone can do the work in 120/4= 30 days.

Answer : 1. "Induce high voltage"
Explanation :
Answer: A) Induce high voltage Explanation: When the switch is ON, in a tube light choke is nothing but the coil/ballast ( inductor) which is used to induce the high voltage across it. as we know that inductor has property to induce high voltage for the brief period of time, this high voltage is required to ionize the gases in the starter. Then gas inside the starter gets ionized due to this full voltage and heats the bimetallic strip that is caused to be bent to connect to the fixed contact. Current starts flowing through the starter. Although the ionization potential of the neon is the little bit more than that of the argon but still due to small electrode gap high voltage gradient is appeared in the neon bulb and hence glow discharge is started first in a starter. As voltage gets reduced due to the current causes a voltage drop across the inductor, the strip cools and breaks away from the fixed contact. At that moment a large L di/dt voltage surge comes across the inductor at the time of breaking. This high valued surge comes across the tube light electrodes and strikes penning mixture (mixture argon gas and mercury vapor). Gas discharge process continues and current gets the path to flow through the tube light gas only due to low resistance as compared to the resistance of starter.

Answer : 4. "Monsoon experiment"
Explanation :
Answer: D) Monsoon experiment Explanation: Monsoon experiment is abbreviated as MONEX. The Monsoon Experiment is the core of the GARP Monsoon Subprogramme, which is a major international effort to achieve a better understanding of the Planetary monsoon circulation, the major seasonal perturbation of the general circulation of the atmosphere and the influence of the annual cycle of precipitation associated with the monsoon on the agriculture of the many populous nations of the region. Hence, MONEX is associated with The Monsoon Experiment.

Answer : 3. "81"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 81 Explanation: The series follows the following pattern. 4 16 = 42 37 = 12+62 58 = 32+72 81 ≠52+82. Here every number is based on the digits of previous number. Hence, 81 is the wrong number in the given series.

Answer : 2. "14"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 14 Explanation: Given Number series is : 3 4 14 48 576 27648 It follows a pattern that, 3 4 4 x 3 = 12 but not 14 12 x 4 = 48 48 x 12 = 576 576 x 48 = 27648 Hence, the odd one in the given Number Series is 14.
