B - 112 m

C - 120 m

D - 135 m

Answer : D

Explanation

We might discover the day on first April, 2001.
First April , 2001=(2000 year + Period structure 1.1.2001 to 1.4.2001)
Odd days in 1600 years =0.
Odd days in 400 year =0.

Jan Feb March April
31 + 28 + 31 + 1 = 91 days =0 odd day.

Aggregate number of odd days= (0+0+0) =0.

On first April, 2001 it was Sunday.
In April, 2001 Wednesday falls on 4th, 11th, 18th and 25th.

Q 7 - A motor boat in still water travels at a speed of 36 kmph. It goes 36 km upstream in 1 hr 45 mins. The time taken by it to cover the same distance downstream will be

A - 2 hrs 25 mins

B - 3 hrs

C - 1 hr 24 mins

D - 2 hr 21 mins

Answer : C

Explanation

Upstream Speed of motor boat = 56/1 hr 45 min = 32 kmph`Speed of the motor boat in still water = 36 kmph`Speed of the boat in still water = 1/2*(Downstream Speed + Upstream Speed)`36 = 1/2(d + 32)`Downstream Speed (d) = 40 km/hr``t = Distance/speed = 40/36 = 7/5 hr = 1 hr 24 mins

Q 8 - At what time between 4 and 5 o' clock will the hands of a clock be at right angle?

A - 320/11 min past 4

B - 420/11 min past 4

C - 120/11 min past 4

D - 220/11 min past 4

Answer : B

Explanation

At 4 o' clock, the minute hand is 20 minute spaces behind the hour hand.
Now, when the two hands are at right angles, they are fifteen min spaces
apart. So, they are at right angles in following two cases.

Case I ? When the minute hand is 15 min spaces behind the hour hand.
In this case, min hand will have to gain (20-15) = 5 min spaces.
= (60/55)*5 = 60/11
∴ They are at right angle at 60/11 minutes past 4.
Case II ? When the minute hand is 15 minute spaces ahead of the hour hand.
In this case the minute hand will have to gain (20+15) = 35 min spaces.
= (60/55)*35 = 420/11 min
∴ They are at right angles at 420/11 min
past 4.
