Q: Read the following information and answer the question that follows:
1. Six scientists A, B, C, D, E and F of the disciplines Chemistry, Botany, Zoology, Physics, Mathematics and Geology, but not necessarily in this order, want to demonstrate an integrated experiment based on an inter-disciplinary approach.
2. Each day only one scientist will perform the part of his discipline.
3. The experiment will start on Monday and end on Sunday. One day will be the rest day, which otherwise is a part of the experiment.
4. Chemistry will be on the very next day of Geology.
5. A, who is a Mathematician, can perform either on the second day or the last day but should not be immediately preceded by Botany.
6. C will demonstrate on the third day and Physics will be on the fifth day.
7. E, who is a Zoologist, performs on the second day.
8. B performs on Monday and the day after F’s performance will be the rest day.
Which one of the following is the correct sequence of scientists performing?
Q: The question below has some statement / argument / report / passage, followed by a few alternative answer choices marked A, B, C and D, of which only one would be the best possible answer. Read the passage / statement / argument carefully and choose the best possible answer from the alternatives given.
In an examination system of an institution, 100 students have been graded (from A – D in descending order) on the basis of the marks they received in the three terminal examinations, in which the pass-marks were 50%. Examiners are instructed to follow the following criteria :
1. All students who scored between 90% and 100% in any two examinations could receive an A.
2. Students who came in the top overall were to be awarded an A.
3. Notwithstanding 1 and 2, if any student failed a paper, the highest he or she could get was a B.
4. The top 20 students in the whole year, when the overall examination percentages were averaged, could receive an A.
On the basis of the above criteria, which of the following would definitely not be permissible?
(a)Bikash, who got 95% in Chemistry and 92% in Biology, received a B
(b)Suprna, who stood first in Physics and got 96% in Mathematics, received a B
(c)Amitava failed in English, but because he ranked 9th overall out of 100 students was awarded an A grade
(d)Bandana was given an A because she came 20th though she had failed to get above 90% in any of the three examinations
Q: Read the following information and answer the question:
Seven students P, Q, R, S, T, U and V take a series of tests. No two students get similar marks. V always scores more than P. P always scores more than Q. Each time either R scores the highest and T gets the least, or alternatively S scores the highest and U or Q scores the least.
If V is ranked fifth, which one of the following is correct?
Q: Which one of the statements is NOT relevant to quantum computing?
(a)Quantum computing is that much more powerful functions may be computed using qubits and quantum gates
(b)Quantum operations are well adapted to describe discrete state changes, that is, transformations between an initial state and final state, without explicit reference to the passage of time
(c)Quantum computation does not support entanglement and measurements of a quantum computer’s registers can yield only a small, discrete set of values
(d)Quantum computing is the use of quantum phenomena such as superposition and entanglement to perform the computation
Q: Read the following information carefully and answer the question given below it :
1. Eight doctors P, Q, R, S, T, U, V and W visit a charitable dispensary every day except on a holiday i.e., Monday.
2. Each doctor visits for one hour from Tuesday to Sunday except Saturday. The timings are 9 A.M. to 1 P.M. and 2 P.M. to 6 P.M., 1 P.M. to 2 P.M. is lunch break.
3. On Saturday it is opened only in the morning i.e., 9 A.M. to 1 P.M. and each doctor visits for only half an hour.
4. No other doctor visits the dispensary before doctor Q and after U.
5. Doctor W comes immediately after the lunch break and is followed by R.
6. S comes in the same order as P in the afternoon session.
If the lunch break and subsequent visiting hours are reduced by 15 minutes, at what time doctor U is expected to attend the dispensary ?
Q: Read the following information carefully and answer the question that follow :
1. Madhu and Shobha are good in Dramatics and Computer Science.
2. Anjali and Madhu are good in Computer Science and Physics.
3. Anjali, Poonam and Nisha are good in Physics and History.
4. Nisha and Anjali are good in Physics and Mathematics.
5. Poonam and Shobha are good in History and Dramatics.
Who is good in History, Physics, Computer Science and Mathematics ?
Q: Some environmentalists question the prudence of exploiting features of the environment, arguing that there are no economic benefits to be gained from forests, mountains, or wetlands that no longer exist. Many environmentalists claim that because nature has intrinsic value it would be wrong to destroy such features of the environment, even if the economic costs of doing so were outweighed by the economic costs of not doing so.
Which one of the following can be logically inferred from the passage?
(a)It is economically imprudent to exploit features of the environment.
(b)Some environmentalists appeal to a noneconomic justification in questioning the defensibility of exploiting features of the environment.
(c)Most environmentalists appeal to economic reasons in questioning the defensibility of exploiting features of the environment.
(d)Many environmentalists provide only a noneconomic justification in questioning the defensibility of exploiting features of the environment.
Q: Unlike newspapers in the old days, today's newspapers and televised news programs are full of stories about murders and assaults in our city. One can only conclude from this change that violent crime is now out of control, and, to be safe from personal attack, one should not leave one's home except for absolute necessities.
Which one of the following, if true, would cast the most serious doubt on the conclusion?
(a)Newspapers and televised news programs have more comprehensive coverage of violent crime than newspapers did in the old days.
(b)National data show that violent crime is out of control everywhere, not just in the author's city.
(c)Police records show that people experience more violent crimes in their own neighborhoods than they do outside their neighborhoods.
(d)Murder comprised a larger proportion of violent crimes in the old days than it does today.

Q: Consider the following gold articles P, Q, R, S and T with different weights:
• P weighs twice as much as Q
• Q weighs four and a half times as much as R
