Section A: Numerical Answer Type Questions
This section contains a total of 20 Numerical Answer Type (NAT) questions. For each question, the answer is a real number that needs to be entered using the virtual keyboard on the monitor. No choices will be shown for these questions. There is NEGATIVE marking for this section. Each correct answer will be awarded 4 marks and each wrong answer will receive -1 (minus 1) mark. Questions not attempted will be given zero marks.
1.A pyramid with a base side 6 cm and height 7 cm is merged with a cube of length 5 cm such that the centroid of the cube matches with the centre of the base of the pyramid. The base of the pyramid is parallel to the base of the cube and the edges of the base of the pyramid are parallel to the sides of the cube. Count the number surfaces in the resulting solid.
2. There are some men and some women in a group. Each person shakes hands with exactly one other person in the entire group. After this round of handshakes, eight men and four women find that they shook hands with someone of the same sex. The total number of handshakes exchanged in the entire group is 87. At most how many women can there possibly be in this group?
3.It is 12 o’clock, and the hour and minute hands are aligned exactly one over the other. Both hands move continuously. After how many minutes will they meet again?
4. At most how many spheres of the same size can be placed around a same size sphere at the centre so that they all simultaneously touch the sphere at the centre?
5. A water tank of dimensions 20 cm x 5 cm x 10 cm has 307 cc water in it. A few bricks, each of dimensions 5 cm x 2 cm x 1 cm are fully submerged in the tank. Each brick absorbs 30% of its own volume of water. Just enough bricks are put in, such that the water level rises to completely fill the tank. How many bricks were put in the tank?
6. How many pages of size 21 cm x 25 cm can be made from a roll of 48 m x 1.2 m paper? Assume the pages are perfectly cut edge to edge.
7. There are a host of HTTP codes which communicate different server messages: 404 for “not found”, 403 for “forbidden” and so on. Recently there has been a proposal to assign a code for “censored/censorship” in honour of the author Ray Bradbury. What is the proposed code?
8. Two friends, one on a bike and the other in a car, arrive together at a parking lot. The chance that the one in the car will find a parking space is 0.1, and the one on the bike not finding a parking space is 0.1. What is the probability that only one of them finds a parking space?
Section B: Multiple Selection Questions
This section contains a total of 20 Multiple Select Questions (MSQ). Each question may have one or more than one correct choice(s) out of the four given choices. A candidate gets 5 marks only if ALL the correct answers and NO wrong answers are selected for each question. There is NEGATIVE marking for this section. Each incorrectly answered question will receive -0.5 (minus 0.5) marks. Questions not attempted will be given zero marks.
1.Select all statements about the Silk Route that are TRUE: A.The Silk Route derives its name from the lucrative trade in Indian silks carried out along its length, beginning from the 3rd century BCE. B.Some scholars prefer the term “Silk Routes” because the road included an extensive network of routes, even though few were more than rough caravan tracks. C.Soon after the Roman conquest of Egypt in 30 BCE, communications and trade between China, Southeast Asia, India, the Middle East, Africa and Europe blossomed on an unprecedented scale because of the Silk Route. D.The Buddhist movement was perhaps the first large-scale missionary movement in the history of world religions, and its transmission to the Mediterranean began via the Silk Route in the 1st century CE.
2.There are no precise rules about punctuation (Fowler lays out some general advice (as best he can under the complex circumstances of English prose (he points out, for example, that we possess only four stops (the comma, the semicolon, the colon and the period (the question mark and exclamation point are not, strictly speaking, stops; they are indicators of tone (oddly enough, the Greeks employed the semicolon for their question mark (it produces a strange sensation to read a Greek sentence which is a straightforward question: Why weepest thou; (instead of Why weepest thou? (and, of course, there are parentheses (which are surely a kind of punctuation making this whole matter much more complicated by having to count up the left-handed parentheses in order to be sure of closing with the right number (but if the parentheses were left out, with nothing to work with but the stops, we would have considerably more flexibility in the deploying of layers of meaning than if we tried to separate all the clauses by physical barriers (and in the latter case, while we might have more precision and exactitude for our meaning, we would lose the essential flavour of language, which is its wonderful ambiguity.
Which of the following statements is/are true of the paragraph above?
A.The thesis statement of the above paragraph is that there are no precise rules about punctuation.
B.The author asserts that the Greeks were confused about their punctuation; they used semicolons in place of question marks
C.The recursive nesting of subordinate clauses within parentheses in the above paragraph simplifies sentence structure and clarifies writing.
D.The author argues that parentheses may offer the possibility of greater rigor and accuracy for our meaning, but they do so at the cost of a critical quality of language, which is its wonderful ambiguity.
