A solid sphere of radius x cm is placed in a cylinder of radius 2x cm and height 2x cm. The cylinder is filled with water, and the sphere is removed. Find the remaining water volume.

  1. Volume of Cylinder:

    Vcylinder=πr2h=π(2x)2(2x)=8πx3Vcylinder​=πr2h=π(2x)2(2x)=8πx3

  2. Volume of Sphere:

    Vsphere=4/3πr3=4/3πx3

  3. Remaining Water Volume:

    Vwater=Vcylinder−Vsphere=8πx3−4/3πx3=20/3πx3Vwater​=Vcylinder​−Vsphere​=8πx3−34​πx3=320​πx3

Given the universal set U={1,2,3,4,5,6}U={1,2,3,4,5,6}, A={1,2,3}A={1,2,3}, and B={2,4,6}B={2,4,6}, find A∩B′A∩B′.

  1. Complement of BB (B′B′):

    B′=U−B={1,3,5}B′=U−B={1,3,5}

  2. Intersection with AA:

    A∩B′={1,2,3}∩{1,3,5}={1,3}A∩B′={1,2,3}∩{1,3,5}={1,3}

From the list of words lettered A to D choose the one that is most nearly opposite in meaning to the underlined word and that will, at the same time, correctly fill the gap in the sentence:

Instead of ……. the issue, the speaker digressed to unimportant matters.

Correct answer:
(d) addressing

Complete correct sentence:
"Instead of addressing the issue, the speaker digressed to unimportant matters."

This shows the speaker failed to deal directly with the issue and instead wandered off topic, making "addressing" the perfect opposite of the implied "digressing" in this context.

5 / 40

From the words lettered A to D, choose the word that best completes the following sentence:

If the jury’s verdict is “not guilty,” the defendant will be….

The correct answer is:

(c) lucrative

The complete sentence would be:
Because the new venture was lucrative, many businessmen and women went into it.

Explanation:

  • Lucrative means "producing a great deal of profit," which explains why many businesspeople would be attracted to it.

  • Rich (A) usually describes a person or entity with wealth, not a venture itself.

  • Manageable (B) means "easy to control," which doesn't necessarily attract investors.

  • Satisfying (D) refers to personal fulfillment, not financial gain.

Thus, lucrative is the best fit.

6 / 40

Pension eligibility under the Pension Reform Act requires a minimum of 10 years of service (Section 2(1)), regardless of age.

  1. Interior Angle Formula:

    Interior Angle=(n−2)×180°/n=140°Interior Angle=n(n−2)×180°​=140°

  2. Solve for nn:

    (n−2)×180°/n=140°  ⟹  180n−360=140n  ⟹  40n=360  ⟹  n=9n(n−2)×180°​=140°⟹180n−360=140n⟹40n=360⟹n=9

  3. Find kk:

From the words lettered A to D, choose the word that best completes the following sentence:

The river……… towards the sea

 

(a)     meandered

 

  • rolled

 

  • ran

 

  • trickled

The correct answer is:

(a) meandered

The complete sentence would be:
The river meandered towards the sea.

Explanation:

  • Meandered means to follow a winding or sinuous course, which is how rivers typically flow.

  • Rolled (B) is more appropriate for waves or solid objects.

  • Ran (C) is too general and doesn't capture the winding nature of a river's flow.

  • Trickled (D) suggests a very slow, small flow, which doesn't necessarily apply to all rivers.

Thus, meandered is the most precise and natural choice to describe a river's movement

  2. Polynomial division or synthetic division gives:
    x³ - 7x + 6 = (x - 1)(x² + x - 6) = (x - 1)(x + 3)(x - 2)

35 / 40

From the words lettered A to D, choose the word that best completes the following sentence:

Many educationists feel that……. Punishment should still be retained in schools

The correct answer is:

(b) corporal

The complete sentence would be:
Many educationists feel that corporal punishment should still be retained in schools.

Explanation:

  • Corporal punishment refers to physical punishment, such as caning or spanking, administered in schools.

  • Capital punishment (A) refers to the death penalty, which is unrelated to school discipline.

  • Corporate (C) relates to businesses or corporations, making it irrelevant here.

  • Physical (D) is close in meaning but not the standard term used in educational contexts (the fixed phrase is "corporal punishment").

Thus, the most accurate choice is (b) corporal.

  1. Midpoint Formula:

    (3+5/2,4+7/2)=(4,5.5)(23+5​,24+7​)=(4,5.5)

  3. Solve the quadratic equation:

    x=10±100−842=10±42x=210±100−84​​=210±4​x=7 or x=3x=7 or x=3

  4. Find corresponding yy:

    • If x=7x=7, y=3y=3

    • If x=3x=3, y=7y=7

38 / 40
