A certain country had a total annual expenditure of $1.2x10^12. If the population of the country was 240 million last year, what was the per capita expenditure?
[ "5000 dollar", "$500", "$1000", "$3000" ]
A
Explanation: In scientific notation 240 million is 2.4x10^8. So the per capita expenditure was: ($1.2x10^12)/(2.4x10^8)=($1.2)/(2.4)x10^12-8=$0.5x10^4=$5000 Answer: Option E

If an elephant and a boy are falling towards the ground, who will land first?
[ "both same time", "neither will land", "the boy", "the elephant" ]
A
Both the elephant and the boy are falling to the ground because of gravity. The force of gravity (F grav ) is greater for the elephant than it is for the boy because the elephant is much more massive. Nonetheless, both of them will reach the ground at the same time (assuming they fall from the same height at the same t...

Apple costs X rupees per kilogram for first 30 kgs and Y rupees per kilogram for each additional kilogram. If the price of 40 kilograms is 420 and for 50 kgs of Apples is 540 then the cost of first 10 kgs of Apples is
[ "100", "3.6", "3.66", "3.62" ]
A
Ans: By framing equations we get 30X+10Y=420 30X+20Y=540 Eliminate Q by multiplying the first equation by 2 and subtracting second equation from the first 60x+20y = 840 - 30x+20y = 540 => 30x = 300 => x = 10 Then we get X = 10 Cost of 10 kgs of apples = 10x 10 = 100 Answer:A

What process is at work when warm air or water rises, and cool air or water sinks?
[ "radiation", "evaporation", "convection", "moisture" ]
C
Warmer, lighter air is more buoyant than the cooler air above it. So the warm air rises. The cooler air is denser than the air beneath it. So it sinks down. This is convection: warm air rises, and cool air sinks. Warm fluids can undergo convection as well. This is described in the chapter Plate Tectonics .
