Answer : 1. "Capillary action phenomenon"
Explanation :
Answer: A) Capillary action phenomenon Explanation: Blotting paper absorbs ink by the process of capillary action. The capillary action is based on the property of surface tension of liquid. All unsized paper will absorb water. Blotting paper is not sized and made bulkier to provide capillary action for faster absorption of liquid. Blotting paper has also been sold as a cosmetic to aid in the removal of skin oils and makeup.

Answer : 2. "76.92%"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 76.92% Explanation: Let the milk he bought is 1000 ml Let C.P of 1000 ml is Rs. 100 Here let he is mixing K ml of water He is getting 30% profit => Now, the selling price is also Rs. 100 for 1000 ml => 100 : K% = 100 : 30 10 : 3 is ratio of milk to water => Percentage of milk = 10 x 100/13 = 1000/13 = 76.92%
Q: Time taken by P alone to finish a work is 50% more than the time taken by P and Q together. Q is thrice as efficient as R. If Q and R together can complete the work in 22.5 days, then how many days will P alone take to complete the work ? 3264 05b5cc6c5e4d2b4197774dd05

Answer : 3. "15 days"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 15 days Explanation: We know that Time is inversely proportional to Efficiency Here given time ratio of P & P+Q as P/P+Q = 150/100 = 3:2 Efficiency ratio of P & Q as P:Q = 2:1 ....(1) Given Efficiency ratio of Q & R as Q:R = 3:1 ....(2) From (1) & (2), we get P:Q:R = 6:3:1 P alone can finish the work in 22.5(3+1)/6 = 15 days.
Q: Ramu rides his bike at an average speed of 45 km/hr and reaches his desitination in four hours. Somu covers the same distance in six hours. If Ramu covered his journey at an average speed which was 9 km/hr less and Somu covered his journey at an average speed which was 10 km/hr more, then the difference in their times taken to reach the destination would be (in minutes). 3252 05b5cc6e5e4d2b4197774ed15

Answer : 2. "30 min"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 30 min Explanation: Distance travelled by Ramu = 45 x 4 = 180 km Somu travelled the same distance in 6 hours. His speed = 180/6 = 30 km/hr Hence in the conditional case, Ramu's speed = 45 - 9 = 36 km/hr and Somu's speed = 30 + 10 = 40km/hr. Therefore travel time of Ramu and Somu would be 5 hours and 4.5 hours respectively. Hence difference in the time taken = 0.5 hours = 30 minutes.
