Answer : 2. "They contain free electrons"
Explanation :
Answer: B) They contain free electrons Explanation: Metal particles are held together by strong metallic bonds, which is why they have high melting and boiling points. The free electrons in metals can move through the metal, allowing metals to conduct electricity. Because the electrons in the atom's higher energy levels can separate from the atoms easily, they can be pulled out with very little energy.┬аBecause the molecular structure of the metal is such that 'free electrons' are free to move, thus being categorized as electrically conductive. ┬а For example, copper is used for electrical wiring because it is a good conductor of electricity.
Q: In the question below consists of a question and two statements numbered a and b given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and give the answer.

Answer : 3. "Both a and b are sufficient"
Explanation :
Answer: C) Both a and b are sufficient Explanation: From both a and b, we find that Kalyan is (25 - 15) = 10 years older than his brother, who was born in 1991. So, Kalyan was born in 1981.
Q: Statement: There was a spurt in criminal activities in the city during the recent festival season.Courses of action:a. The police should immediately investigate into the causes of this increase.b. In future the police should take adequate precaution to avoid recurrence of such situation during festival.c. The known criminals should be arrested before any such season. 1765 05b5cc754e4d2b4197774fbbe

Answer : 1. "Both a and b follows"
Explanation :
Answer: A) Both a and b follows Explanation: The police ought to find out the lackenings in existing security arrangements and make up for these inadequacies to strengthen security and thus prevent criminal activities in the forthcoming festival. So, both a and b follow. Arresting the known criminals does not ensure safety, for a novice can also indulge in crime. So, c does not follow.
Q: Where does translation occur? 1764 05b5cc639e4d2b4197774ba67

Answer : 3. "Cytoplasm"
Explanation :
Answer: C) Cytoplasm Explanation: Right after that, the mRNA enters the cytoplasm through nuclear pores. There, it could be translated into proteins by ribosomes. This process is called translation. ┬а Translation occurs in the cytoplasm whereas transcription occurs in the nucleus.
Q: A train 125 m long passes a man, running at 4 km/hr in the same direction in which the train is going, in 10 seconds. The speed of the train is: 1764 05b5cc6d6e4d2b4197774e65b

Answer : 1. "49 kmph"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 49 kmph Explanation: Speed of the train relative to man = (125/10) m/sec = (25/2) m/sec. [(25/2) x (18/5)] km/hr = 45 km/hr. Let the speed of the train be 'x' km/hr. Then, relative speed = (x - 4) km/hr. x - 4 = 45 => x = 49 km/hr.
Q: An amount doubles itself in 15 years. what is the rate of interest ? 1764 05b5cc711e4d2b4197774f3cd

Answer : 3. "6.66 %"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 6.66 % Explanation: Let the principle be Rs. PAs the amount double itself the interest is Rs. P tooSo P = P x r x 15/100=> r = 100/15 = 20/3 % = 6.66 %.

Q: Is DRAM Volatile or Nonvolatile? 1762 05b5cc6a6e4d2b4197774cda6

Answer :
Explanation :
DRAM is a┬аVolatile random-access memory (VRAM). ┬а Volatile random-access memory (VRAM) is random-access memory that retains its information when power is turned on. Examples of volatile memory are primary storage (typically dynamic RAM, DRAM), and fast CPU cache memory (typically static RAM, SRAM, which is fast but energy-consuming and offer lower memory capacity per area unit than DRAM). Non-volatile random-access memory (NVRAM) is random-access memory that retains its information when power is turned off. Examples of non-volatile memory are flash memory (used as secondary memory) and ROM, PROM, EPROM and EEPROM memory (used for storing firmware such as BIOS).
