Write following $12$ hour times into $24$ hour times.
$7:43$ pm

  1. $7:43$
  2. $19:43$
  3. $19:43$ pm
  4. $19:43$ am
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

To change a $pm$ time to $24$ hours time , you have to add $12 \ \ pm$ to the hours unless it is $12\ \ pm$ then the time remain unchanged .

$7:43\ \ pm=(7+12):43=19:43$
option $B$ is correct.

A copper sphere of diameter 6 cm is drawn into a wire of diameter 0.4 cm. The length of the wire is

  1. 6 m

  2. 8 m

  3. 9 m

  4. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Volume of wire (cyl)= Vol of sphere 
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \pi \times \left ( 0.2 \right )^{2}\times h=\dfrac{4}{3}\times \pi \times 3^{3}$
$\displaystyle\Rightarrow h=900 cm = 9 m $

Diameter of a copper sphere is 6 cm. The sphere is melted and drawn into a wire of uniform circular cross section which is 72 cm long .The diameter of the wire is nearly

  1. 2.8 cm

  2. 2.7 cm

  3. 1.4 cm

  4. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Volume of wire (cyl)=Volume of sphere 
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \pi r^{2}\times 72=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi \times 3^{3}$
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow r=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}cm$
Thus diameter$\displaystyle \dfrac{2}{\sqrt{2}}cm=\sqrt{2}cm=1.4cm$

A right circular cylinder and a sphere are of equal volumes and their radii are also equal If h is the height of the cylinder and d is the diameter of the sphere then

  1. $\displaystyle \frac{h}{3}=\frac{d}{2} $
  2. $\displaystyle \frac{h}{2}=\frac{d}{3} $
  3. $2h = d$
  4. $h = d$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Volume of cylinder = Volume of sphere
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \pi \left ( \dfrac{d}{2} \right )^{2}h=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi \left ( \dfrac{d}{2} \right )^{3}$
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow h=\dfrac{2}{3}d\Rightarrow \dfrac{h}{2}=\dfrac{d}{3}$

There is a rod of length $4\ cm$ and another rod of length $500\ mm$ has been joined to the first rod. Then the length of the rod(in cm) formed by joining these $2$ is :

  1. $450\ cm$
  2. $54\ cm$
  3. $9\ cm$
  4. $4.5\ cm$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation
Length of first Rod is $4cm$

Length of second Rod is $500mm$

Total Length of the Rod  by joining these two rods is $4cm$ $500mm$

We know that, $1$  $centimeter =10$ $mm$, $1$  $mm =\dfrac{1}{10}$  $cm$

We need to convert  $4$ $cm$ $500$  $mm$  to  $centimeter$
$4cm$ $500$  $mm$ $ = 4cm + 500mm$
Now, $500$ $mm =\dfrac{1}{10} \times 500$ $cm$ $= 50$  $cm$
$\therefore 4cm\ 500\ mm=4cm + 500mm=(4+50)cm$ $=54\ cm$

So, Option $B$ is correct
Multiple choice irrational numbers irrational numbers and their operations rational and irrational numbers real numbers (rational and irrational numbers) maths

State whether the following statement is True or False:
A rational and Irrational number between $2.357$ and $3.121$ is $3, 3.101101110 ...$

  1. True

  2. False

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Any terminating decimal between 2.357 and 3.121 will be a rational number like, ${3}$

Any non-terminating and non-recurring decimal between  2.357 and 3.121 will be an irrational number like $3.101101110...$

State the following statement is True or False
A rational number between  $3.623623$ and  $0.484848 $ are $4$ and $4.909009000 .$..

  1. True

  2. False

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

$4>3.623623$ and $4.90900900...>3.623623$

Since both the numbers do not lie between $0.4848$ and $3.623623.$, the given statement is false.

State true or false:
The three rational numbers between $\displaystyle \sqrt{3}$ and $\displaystyle \sqrt{5}$ are 1.6, 1.8, 2.2

  1. True

  2. False

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

We know that, $ \sqrt {3} = 1.732 $ and $ \sqrt {5} = 2.236 $





Hence three rational numbers between $ 1.732 $ and $ 2.236 $  can be $

1.8( = \frac {18}{10}) ; 2 $ and $ 2.2 (= \frac {22}{10}) $

State the following statement is true or false:
$\dfrac{5}{12}$  lies between $\cfrac{1}{3}$ and $\cfrac{1}{2}$.

  1. True

  2. False

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The average of the two numbers will be in between the two numbers.
$ \cfrac { \left( \dfrac { 1 }{ 3 }  \right) +\left( \dfrac { 1 }{ 2 }  \right)  }{ 2 } $

$= \cfrac { \left( \dfrac { 5 }{ 6 }  \right)  }{ 2 } $

$= \dfrac { 5 }{ 12 } $ is a rational number which lies between $\dfrac{1}{3}\ and\ \dfrac{1}{2}$.
