Answer: C) Helioseismology Explanation: Helioseismology is the study of the solar interior using observations of waves on the Sun's surface. It has done much to improve our understanding of the interior of the Sun, testing the physical inputs used to model stellar interiors and providing a detailed map of the Sun's structure and internal rotation.

Answer: D) 4.5 Explanation: Given equation is     192.5 ×19p = 197    Here it is in the form of am × an = am+n    Here m = 2.5 , n = p, m+n = 7  => 2.5 + p = 7   => p = 7 - 2.5  => p = 4.5

Answer: C) 35 and 11 years Explanation: Let the age of sushma be x and the age of her son is yThen five years before x-5=5(y-5) ...(1)Five years hence x+5 = 3(y+5)-8 .....(2) By soving (1) & (2), we get5y - 15 = 3y + 7y = 11 => x = 35 Therefore, the age of Sushma = 35 and her son = 11.

Answer: C) 18th Explanation: Number of persons between Amrita and Mukul = 50 - (10 + 25) = 15. Since Mamta lies in middle of these 15 persons, so Mamta`s position is 8th from Amrita i.e. 18th from the front.

Answer: B) 1243 Explanation: Given number sequence is 28, 16, 28, 76, 274 Here the sequence follows a pattern that 28 28 x 0.5 + 2 = 14 + 2 = 16 16 x 1.5 + 4 = 24 + 4 = 28 28 x 2.5 + 6 = 70 + 6 = 76 76 x 3.5 + 8 = 266 + 8 = 274 274 x 4.5 + 10 = 1233 + 10 = 1243   Hence, the next number in the given number sequence is 1243.

1. Answer : 2 Explanation : Productivity = Total production/area of Agr.land  Productivity of UP = [ (35000+30000+25000) / (30/100) ] = 300000   Productivity of MP = [ (30000+37500+27500) / (25/100) ] = 380000   Productivity of Bihar = [ (22500+27500+25000) / (20/100) ] = 375000  Productivity of Odisha = [ (22500+15000+10000) / (5/100) ]= 950000   Productivity of Haryana = [ (30000+25000+35000) / (8/100) ] = 1125000   Productivity of Punjab = [ (40000+35000+30000) / (12/100) ] = 875000  The Productivity of Haryana is the maximum.       2. Answer : 5   Explanation : Production of Punjab is maximum = 105000 tonnes      3. Answer : 3  Explanation : Production of Wheat in Punjab = 40000 tones Production of Maize in Odisha = 10000 tones Required % = (40000 - 10000)/100 = 300%      4. Answer : 4  Explanation : The ratio of prodution of Rice in Bihar to the production of Wheat in Haryana = 25000 tonnes : 25000 tonnes = 1 : 1       5. Answer : 1   Explanation : Income of MP from export of 40% of Rice at the rate of Rs.30 per kg = Rs.39crore Income of UP from export of 30% of Rice at the rate of Rs.32 per kg = Rs.28.8 crore  Required ratio = 39 : 28.8 = 390 : 288 = 65 : 48

Answer: D) 37 Explanation: 16x + 85 = 17(x + 3) x = 34 + 3 = 37

Answer: A) decreases Explanation: When water freezes its density decreases. Water at ordinary temperatures contracts and increases in density as it is cooled, like most substances. But at about 4°C it reaches a maximum density and then decreases in density as it approaches the freezing point.
