    Q. 6 The old city of Koenigsberg, which had a German majority population beforeWorld War 2, is now called Kaliningrad. After the events of the war, Kaliningradis now a Russian territory and has a predominantly Russian population. It isbordered by the Baltic Sea on the north and the countries of Poland to the southand west and Lithuania to the east respectively. Which of the statement belowcan be inferred from this passage ?(A) Kaliningrad was historically Russian in its ethnic make up

    Sol. 6 Correct option is (A).

    Ethnic cleansing or makeup is the process of using violent methods to force

    certain groups of people out of a particular area or country. We can infer that

    Kaliningrad was historically Russian in its ethnic make up.

    Q. 7 The number of people diagnosed with dengue fever (contracted from the bite ofa mosquito) in north India is twice the number diagnosed last year. Municipalauthorities have concluded that measures to control the mosquito populationhave failed in this region.Which one of the following statements, if true, does notcontradict this

    conclusion ?

    (A) A high proportion of the affected population has returned fromneighbouring countries where dengue is prevalent

    (B) More cases of dengue are now reported because of an increase in theMunicipal Offices administrative efficiency

    (C) Many more cases of dengue are being diagnosed this year since theintroduction of a new and effective diagnostic test

    (D) The number of people with malarial fever (also contracted from mosquitobites) has increased this year

    Sol. 7 Correct option is (D).

    The number of people with malarial fever (also contracted from mosquito bites)

    has increased this year.

    (C) 4, 52 (D) 14, 52

    Sol. 8 Correct option is (D). x x2 32 - + 11=So we can have two possible equalities

    x x2 32 - + 11= or x x2 8 02 - - = ...(i)and x x2 32 - + 11=- or x x2 14 02 - + = ...(ii)For eq (ii),

    Discriminant T b ac42

    = - ( )( )4 4 1 14 01= -So, roots of equation (ii) will be imaginary, but given xis real. Therefore wedont consider this equation.

    So, roots of equation (i) will be real.

    following line graph. If the number of female students doubled in 2009, by whatpercent did the number of male students increase in 2009 ?

    Sol. 9 Correct answer is 140.Let male students in 2006 be x1and female students be y1. From the given graphwe can see that in 2008 ratio of male to female students is 2.5. So

    As shown in Figure above, at 6:00 a.m. initial angle between minute and hour

    hand is 180c. As we know that hour hand completes 30c in every hour (60

    minutes), so angle moved by hour hand in 1 minute is 6030 . Similarly, minute hand

    complete 360cin every hour, so angle moved by minute hand in 1 minute is60

    360 .

    Let us assume that after xminutes the angle is 60c. Let us assume that after x

    minutes the angle is 60c.

    As the load decreases, the speed increases. Relative speed between stator rmf and

    rotor speed reduced which decrease the slip consequently emf induced in the rotor

    and current decreases. Hence frequency decreases.
