1) In a classroom of 100 students, 40 students feel alert, while 60 students feel bored, if 50% of the alert students turn bored. After that, 50% of the bored students turn alert, what is the final number of students who feel alert and bored ?

a. 20 alert, 80 bored
b. No change - 40 alert, 60 bored
c. 60 alert, 40 bored (ans)
d. 50 alert, 50 bored

Explanation :

Initial step :
Alert = 40
Bored = 60

Step-1 :
50% of the alert students turns bored. so,
Alert = 40 - 40*0.5 = 20
Bored = 60 + 20(from alert) = 80

Step-2:
50% of the bored students turns alert
Bored = 80 (from previous step) - 80*0.5 = 40

Alert = 20 (from previous step) + 40 = 60

Prototype (model) is one of the first units manufactured of a product, which is tested so that the design can be changed if necessary before the product is manufactured commercially

A Proof of concept prototype is used to test some aspect of the intended design without attempting to exactly simulate the visual appearance, choice of materials or intended manufacturing process. Such prototypes can be used to "prove" out a potential design approach such as range of motion, mechanics, sensors, architecture, etc. These types of models are often used to identify which design options will not work, or where further development and testing is necessary.

Form Study Prototype (Model) - This type of prototype will allow designers to explore the basic size, look and feel of a product without simulating the actual function or exact visual appearance of the product. They can help assess ergonomic factors and provide insight into visual aspects of the product's final form.

    1. Hello Sameer,

      Q40 : Not all cranes are wheeled ones, heavy cranes especially at coal mines, construction areas and even at sea ports are guided one's

      Q4 You may check the image that I have included for explanation for this ques and here is some more explanation

      Dark blue: trust, dignity, intelligence, authority
      Bright blue: cleanliness, strength, dependability, coolness
      Light (sky) blue: peace, serenity, ethereal, spiritual, infinity

      So, in one way, tranquillity could also count for light blue, good find !

      Q24. The question mentioned specifically that bus was in moving condition, so no question of thinking about 'Rest condition'. I've mentioned in the question that sketch was made simply and is symmetrical.

      This should convince you and thanks for bringing your views :)

  2. Hi Bhanu!

    Thank you so much for the part A questions!

    However for question 40 though the answer crane is acceptable even bike and plane are acceptable answers right?

    Bike would be acceptable because that is the only two wheeler amongst the lot.
    Plane would be acceptable because that is the only vehicle that is going to be airborne.

    Kindly share your views on this.

    1. Hello Abhi,

      Q40 seems to assume multiple perceptions, sameer already gave his view, and I can see some more different views, may be I should change the options or I should put multiple options for that question. Yes, Bike can be an answer, probability of aeroplane being the answer could be very less, since an aeroplane also runs on land.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Yes, It could be, but aeroplanes also runs on land, so better to go for more probable option like the bicycle, which is not powered vehicle.

      Delete
  6. 40th Answer would be 'Planes', as they only meant for air-borne travel, AND If 'Bikes' can be used in public transport, same can apply to the Bicycles aswell.
