3. Which number comes in the place of question mark shown in the below image
Answer - 19
Explanation :
The series can be split into two parts (alternative numbers like 1st, 3rd, 5th ....and 2nd, 4th and 6th .........)
5 -> 11 (5+6) -> 17 (11+6) ............
7 -> 13 (7+6) -> 19 (13+6) ............
4. Look at the series: 26, 24, 20, 18, 14, ...... what number should come next ?
Answer - 12
Explanation :
The series can be split into two parts just like in the before question (alternative numbers like 1st, 3rd, 5th ....and 2nd, 4th and 6th .........)
26 -> 20 (26 - 6) -> 14 (20 - 6) .......
24 -> 18 (24 - 6) -> 12 (18 - 6) ........
5. A wire can be bent in the form of a circle of radius 7cm. If it is bent in the form of a square, then its area will be ? (take PI = 22/7)
Area - 121 sqcm
Explanation :
Whether the wire is bent in circle or square, it doesn't matter, the length of the wire should be same. Now find the lenth of the wire if it was bent as a circle of radius 7cm, which will turn out to be the circumference (perimeter) - 2*PI*r = 2*PI*7
Now the same length forms the perimeter of the square which has all equal side - The perimeter of square is 4L = 2*PI*7
You will get length of the side L. Now the area of the suare is L*L (squared L)
Below shown picture applies to questions from 6 to 8
6. How many circles are there in the above picture ?
Answer - 2 circles
7. How many squares are there in the above same image ?
Answer - 3 squares

10. Which of the following pictures illustrate 'Cross hatching' ?
Answer - a
11. _________ is the reproduction of graphics through mechanical or electrical means, such as photography or xerography.
a. Ink jet
b. Reprography (ans)
c. Photographic
d. Blue prints
Explanation :
Reprography is commonly used in catalogs and archives, as well as in the architectural, engineering, and construction industries.
Note :
Halftone is the reprographic technique that simulates continuous tone imagery through the use of dots, varying either in size, in shape or in spacing, thus generating a gradient like effect. "Halftone" can also be used to refer specifically to the image that is produced by this process.
12. Which process is the result of 'blue lines on a white background' ?
a. Blueprint
b. Whiteprint (ans)
c. Darkprint
d. All
Explanation :
Whiteprint describes a document reproduction produced by using the diazo chemical process. It is also known as the blue-line process since the result is blue lines on a white background. It is a contact printing process which accurately reproduces the original in size, but cannot reproduce continuous tones or colors.
A blueprint is a reproduction of a technical drawing, documenting an architecture or an engineering design, using a contact print process on light-sensitive sheets. Introduced in the 19th century, the process allowed rapid and accurate reproduction of documents used in construction and industry. The blue-print process was characterized by light colored lines on a blue background, a negative of the original. The process was unable to reproduce color or shades of grey.
13. _________ in drawing refers to applying heavy layers of pencil until the tooth of the paper is completely filled in, and a smooth, shiny surface is created.
a. Bistre Ink
b. Burnishing (ans)
c. Emphasis
d. Foreshortening
Explanation :
Bistre ink is a traditional ink made by boiling wood soot. The resulting ink color depends on the type of wood burnt to make the soot.
Burnishing is most commonly used in colored pencil drawing, to create a solid area of color. Burnished colored pencil has an almost painted finish. Waxy pencils or use of a colorless blender may create a transparent, jewel-like effect.
Emphasis/Focal Point is a principle, and the area of a work that first attracts the viewer's attention. This can be drawn in various ways.
Foreshortening is a method of drawing or painting an object or person so that it seems to go back into space. This method reproduces the portions a viewer actually sees.

17. Auto-mobiles (Car or bike) that are imported or exported to/from some other country as a complete/fully assembled are termed as ?
a. CBU (ans)
b. CKD
c. AEI
d. AED
Explanation :
CBU means "Completely Built Unit" are any automobile (Car or bike) that are imported or exported to/from some other country as a complete/fully assembled.
CKD means "Completely Knocked Down" are any automobile (car or bike) which are imported/exported in parts, but not in assembled way.

a. San Fransico
b. San Diego
c. Tokyo
d. Dubai (ans)

19. A 24 cm x 24 cm square metal plate needs to be fixed by a carpenter on to a wooden board. The carpenter uses nails all along the edges of the square such that there are 25 nails on each side of the square. Each nail is at the same distance from the neighboring nails. How many nails does the carpenter use?
a. 100
b. 98
c. 97
d. 96 (ans)
Explanation :
If you start from the bottom side of the square; no. of nails required = 25
right side of the square, no. of nails required = 25 - 1 = 24
Top side of the square, no. of nails required = 25 - 1 = 24
Left side of the square, this time both the ends are already having one nails - so nails required for this side = 25 - 2 = 23
Total nails = 25 + 24 + 24 + 23 = 96

f. All
Printing is the application of CMYK, while all displays are usually made possible using RGB color models. RGB colors are thus additive in nature and CMYK (Cyan-Magneta-Yellow-key/black) stands for substrative color models.
26. Stencil duplicator is also called as ?
a. Carbon paper
b. Mimeograph machine (ans)
c. Duplicating machines
d. All
The stencil duplicator or mimeograph machine (often abbreviated to mimeo) is a low-cost printing press that works by forcing ink through a stencil onto paper. Duplicating machines were the predecessors of modern document-reproduction technology. They have now been replaced by digital duplicators, scanners, laser printers and photocopiers, but for many years they were the primary means of reproducing documents for limited-run distribution.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteFor Questions 6-8 aren't we supposed to count the the figures formed by intersections as well?
Actually, I should have made a note earlier, whether to count overlapped figures or not. I gave the solution just assuming that basic shapes are enough to be counted. But yes, for such questions, better to consider intersected or overlapped shapes too !
DeleteThanks for the note :)
ohh okay ...welcome :)
Deleteis an ellipse a circle ?
ReplyDeleteQ.6
as def says : A circle is a simple shape of Euclidean geometry that is the set of all points in a plane that are at a given distance from a given point, the centre.
so ans must b 2 and not 4.
correct me if i am wrong
Ya it's 2 not 4, I corrected that !
Deletein q3 all the numbers are prime numbers.so after 17 next prime no is 19.can it be solved like this?
ReplyDeleteya, of course, you can.
DeleteIn question no. 8 dotn we have to count the smaller triangles too?
ReplyDeleteyes, included, i think the total is 9
Deletesir in question 8 i thnik answer is 15......
