RRB NTPC Tier I Official Paper (Held On: 6 Apr 2016 Shift 1) (Previous Year Paper)

LOWELY is written as YELLOW

IFER is written as FIRE

THIWE is written as WHITE

WRONB is written as BROWN

All above are name of colour except FIRE.

Hence IFER is different.

Formula used:

Mean = Total sum/Number of terms

Calculation:

Total sum = 18 + 16 + 22 + 13 + ? = 69 + ?

Number of terms = 5

Mean = Total sum/Number of terms

∴ (69 + ?)/5 = 16

⇒ ? = 80 - 69 = 11

The relation between terms is as follows,

Hence ER is the correct option.

Mars is often called the 'Red Planet' because it appears in the sky as an orange - red star. The colour caused the ancient Greeks and Romans to name it after their god of war. Today, thanks to visiting spacecraft, we know that the planet’s appearance is due to rust in the Martian rocks.

The correct answer is Lime water.

Calcium hydroxide traditionally called slaked lime is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Ca(OH)₂. It is a colorless crystal or white powder and is obtained when calcium oxide (called lime or quicklime) is mixed or soaked with water

2.X is to the immediate left of T and X is four cars away from S

3. V is parked to the immediate right of Y and V is two car away from W.

From here we can say that W is immediate right of S.

1. T is parked on the extreme right.

2.X is to the immediate left of T and X is four cars away from S

3. V is parked to the immediate right of Y and V is two car away from W.

From here we can say that V is parked to the immediate left of X.

• In the early 18th century, Maharaja Jai Singh II of Jaipur constructed five Jantar Mantar in total, in New Delhi, Jaipur, Ujjain, Mathura, and Varanasi.
• They were completed between 1724 and 1735. All these are Astronomical observatory. The Jantar Mantar monument in Jaipur,
• Rajasthan is a collection of nineteen architectural astronomical instruments, built by the Rajput king Sawai Jai Singh II, and completed in 1734 CE.
• It features the world's largest stone sundial and is a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Bharat stage emission standards (BSES) are emission standards instituted by the Government of India to regulate the output of air pollutants from internal combustion engines and Spark - ignition engines equipment, including motor vehicles. The standards and the timeline for implementation are set by the Central Pollution Control Board under the Ministry of Environment & Forests and climate change.

Conclusion 1:

R > L From statements we write, L > N, and N = R, So L > R, hence this conclusion is wrong.

Conclusion 2:

R < M From statements we write, M > N, and N = R, so M > R, hence this conclusion is right.

Hence only conclusion II follows.

Explanation:

We know,

For a Rectangle, the adjacent sides will be perpendicular to each other (∵ Angle between them = 90° )

For a Rhombus, the two diagonals will be perpendicular to each other (∵ Angle between them = 90° )

For a Square, the adjacent sides will be perpendicular to  each other (∵ Angle between them = 90° )

But,

For a Right-angle triangle, Hypotenuse and One side will not be perpendicular to each other

∴ The odd statement is C

Note: For a Right-angle triangle, the other two sides except Hypotenuse will be perpendicular to each other

Let the number of men who agreed to do the work in 20 days be x

⇒ work done by x men = 20x

Also given (x - 5) men will complete the work in 40 days

⇒ work done by (x - 5) men = 40(x - 5)

Since the work done by both are same

⇒ 20x = 40(x - 5)

⇒ 20x - 40x = - 200

⇒ x = 10

∴ No of men who had agreed to do the work originally = 10

Prime numbers from 1 - 100:

Prime numbers between 60 to 100 is 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89 and 97

∴ Total number of prime numbers between 60 to 100 are 8

In the 21^st-century internet is expanding exponentially and contains a lot of information that should not be viewed by children. Argument I holds strong on the note that children should “know how to use the Internet responsibly”. While “exploring on their own” will definitely help them to “learn a lot”, it can mislead children and influence them in a wrong way. Thus argument II does not hold strong.

Hence “only argument I is strong”.

Option 3 is correct, i.e. For disinfecting drinking water to make it free of germs.

• Uses of washing soda:
• Sodium carbonate (washing soda) is used in glass, soap and paper industries.
• It is used in the manufacture of sodium compounds such as borax.
• Sodium carbonate can be used as a cleaning agent for domestic purposes.
• It is used for removing the permanent hardness of the water.

Note:

• Uses of sodium hydrogen carbonate (NaHCO3):
• For making baking powder, which is a mixture of baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate) and a mild edible acid such as tartaric acid. When baking powder is heated or mixed in water, the following reaction takes place –
• NaHCO₃+ H+→ CO₂+ H₂O + Sodium salt of an acid.
• Carbon dioxide produced during the reaction causes bread or cake to rise to make them soft and spongy.
• Sodium hydrogen carbonate is also an ingredient in antacids.
• Being alkaline, it neutralizes excess acid in the stomach and provides relief.
• It is also used in soda-acid fire extinguishers.
• Bleaching powder is used:
• For bleaching cotton and linen in the textile industry, for bleaching the wood pulp in paper factories and for bleaching washed clothes in a laundry.
• As an oxidizing agent in many chemical industries; and
• For disinfecting drinking water to make it free of germs.

From the given data,

y(y⁴ - y² - y)

= 5 × (5⁴ - 5² - 5)

= 5 × (625 - 25 - 5)

= 5 × 595

= 2975

Let the two positive numbers be x and y

From the given data,

⇒ x + y = 34       - - - - equation (1)

⇒ x - y = 8         - - - equation (2)

By adding equation (1) and equation (2), we get

⇒ 2x = 42

⇒ x = 42/2 = 21

Substitute x = 21 in equation (1)

⇒ x + y = 34

⇒ 21 + y = 34

⇒ y = 34 – 21 = 13

∴ Their product = xy = 21 × 13 = 273

Let the numbers be 2x and 3x

LCM of 2x and 3x = 6x

Given that LCM = 66

⇒ 6x = 66

⇒ x = 66/6 = 11

∴ The numbers are 22 and 33

∴ Sum of the numbers = 22 + 33 = 55

P means ÷

R means ×

Q means +

S means -

So we can write 36 P 6 Q 7 R 8 S 11 as 36 ÷ 6 + 7 × 8 – 11

Hence value of this is = 6 + 56 – 11 = 51

Multitasking, in an operating system, is allowing a user to perform more than one computer task (such as the operation of an application program) at a time. The operating system is able to keep track of where you are in these tasks and go from one to the other without losing information.

The Government has launched the School Nursery Yojana, an initiative to bring students closer to nature, by involving them in raising of saplings in nurseries created in schools. The underlying theme of the Yojana is to plant a tree for sustainable future and to make the nation clean and green. Under the Yojana, students will sow the seeds, grow saplings in the school nursery, as part of practical exercise for Biology classes and extra - curricular activities for students of other streams. The students will also carry out a tree census in their school and the locality.

Here Ms. Chandra said that Lakshmi’s husband is only son of my grandfather, means grandfather of Ms. Chandra is father of Lakshmi’s husband.

Hence Ms. Chandra is daughter of Lakshmi’s husband.Now from here we can say that Ms. Chandra is daughter of Lakshmi.

The correct answer is Both 1 and 3 combined.

Key Points

• The Chief Election Commissioner can be removed from office only through the process of Impeachment.
• The Chief Election Commissioner cannot be removed from office, except on the grounds and in the manner on which the Supreme Court judges can be removed.
• CEC has a tenure of six years, or up to the age of 65 years, whichever is earlier.
• He enjoys the same official status, salary, and perks as available to Judges of the Supreme Court of India and High court.

Important Points

• Chief Election Commissioner can be removed from his office by the President on the basis of a resolution passed to that effect by both the houses of parliament with a two-thirds majority in both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha on the grounds of proved misbehaviour or incapacity.

As the basic resolution needs to be passed by both the Houses of Parliament and then approved by the President so, both 1 and 3 combined is the correct answer here.

From the given data,

⇒ cos² 90° + cosec² 90° - cot² 45° = (0)² + (1)² - (1)² = 0

The records of population density 2011 of India state that the density 2011 has increased from a figure of 324 to that of 382 per square kilometre, which is considerably higher than the average population density of the world 2011, which are 46 per square kilometre.

Let the elder sister's age be x and younger sister's age be y

Given that difference between the ages of two sisters is 4 years

⇒ x - y = 4

Given that father's age is 54, then mother's age = 54 – 2 = 52

Also given that Younger sister's age y = half of the mother's age = 52/2 = 26

∴ Age of elder sister x = y + 4 = 26 + 4 = 30 years

From the given data,

⇒ 2² – 3³ + 4³ – 6² = 4 - 27 + 64 - 36 = 5

From the given data,

Total rainfall of JK for 4 months = 1100 + 1100 + 1000 + 1200 = 4400

Total rainfall of HP for 4 months = 1100 + 1100 + 1000 + 1300 = 4500

Total rainfall of WB for 4 months = 1400 + 1300 + 1200 + 1000 = 4900

Total rainfall of GA for 4 months = 1000 + 1300 + 1500 + 1700 = 5500

Total rainfall of TN for 4 months = 1200 + 1050 + 1000 + 1100 = 4350

∴ Rainfall is lowest for TN

From the given data,

Increase of rainfall for JK from June to September = (1200 - 1100) = 100

Increase of rainfall for HP from June to September = (1300 - 1100) = 200

Increase of rainfall for WB from June to September = (1000 - 1400) = - 400

Increase of rainfall for GA from June to September = (1700 - 1000) = 700

Increase of rainfall for TN from June to September = (1100 - 1200) = - 100

∴ GA shows the gradual increase in its rainfall from June to September

Total rainfall for the month of June of five states = 1100 + 1100 + 1400 + 1000 + 1200 = 5800

Total rainfall for the month of July of five states = 1100 + 1100 + 1300 + 1300 + 1050 = 5850

Total rainfall for the month of August of five states = 1000 + 1000 + 1200 + 1500 + 1000 = 5700

Total rainfall for the month of September of five states = 1200 + 1300 + 1000 + 1700 + 1100 = 6300

∴ Rainfall is lowest for the month of August

HCF × LCM = 48 (given)

Let the two numbers be ‘x’ & ‘y’

As we know,

HCF × LCM = Product of numbers

⇒ x × y = 48

⇒ x – y = 8 (given)

⇒ Factors of xy = 48 are (1, 48), (2, 24), (3, 16), (4, 12), (6, 8)

⇒ The only pair which satisfies both the conditions is (4, 12)

∴ Answer is (12, 4)

Let the distance covered in two more days be x km

⇒ (3 + 4 + 3.5 + 5 + 4.5 + x)/7 = 4

⇒ 20 + x = 28

⇒ x = 28 - 20 = 8

∴ Distance covered in two more days = 8 km

From given data,

Factors of 16 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16

Factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24

∴ Highest common factor (HCF) is 8

LCM of 16, 24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 = 16 × 3 = 48

The cultivation of saffron is a traditional art. In India, 5, 707 hectares of land comes under its cultivation. Its annual production is around sixteen thousand kilograms. The state of Jammu and Kashmir tops the list of the saffron growing states in India.

From given data,

Principal P = Rs. 3000

Rate R = 12%

Time T = 1/12 year

Amount divided into 12 months = Rs.3000/12 = Rs. 250

Simple interest for one month = P × T × R/100 = 3000 × 1/12 × 12 /100 = Rs. 30

∴ Amount for each installment = 250 + 30 = Rs. 280

• An Islamic republic is a name given to several states in countries ruled by Islamic laws, including the Islamic Republics of Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan, and Mauritania.
• Pakistan first adopted the title under the constitution of 1956.
• Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan was an Islamic state established in September 1996 when the Taliban began their rule of Afghanistan after the fall of Kabul.

1. Are you sam = ‘ri ai ki’
2. All hate you = ‘vi li ri’

from 1^st  and 2^nd  we can say that you = ‘ ri’

3. All are fake = ‘mi ai li’

From 2^nd and 3^rd we can say that All = ‘li’

Now from 2^nd  we can say that hate means ‘vi’ as we know meaning of All and You.

M said that “she (means K) was daughter of the only son her grandfather” means she was daughter of her grandfather’s only son, grandfather’s only son is father of M, and daughter of his father is nothing but her sister. Hence M is sister of K as gender of M is female represented by word “her”.

Hence M is sister of K.

Novak Djokovic has won the majority of mens single tennis grand slam tournament in 2015. He won US open defeating Roger federer and Australia open defeating Andy Murray

S.I = PRT/100

Here P = Principle, R = Rate T = Time, S.I = Simple interest

S. I = 5200 – 4000 = (4000 × R × 10)/100

⇒ R = (1200 × 100)/(4000 × 10) = 3%

New rate = 3 + 4 = 7%

Interest = (4000 × 7 × 10)/100 = Rs. 2800

The National Flag of India was adopted in its present form during the meeting of Constituent Assembly held on the 22 July 1947, a few days before India's independence from the British on 15 August, 1947.

The correct answer is Lactic acid.

Key Points

Lactic Acid:

• Lactic acid is found in sour milk products like laban, yoghurt, kefir, curd, cottage cheeses, etc.
• Lactic acid is also in our blood, where it's deposited by muscle and red blood cells.
• Lactic acid or lactate in milk is due to the fermentation of lactose caused mainly by lactic bacteria.

Additional Information

Salicylic acid:

• Salicylic acid also called ortho-hydroxybenzoic acid, a white, crystalline solid that is used chiefly in the preparation of aspirin and other pharmaceutical products.
• The free acid occurs naturally in small amounts in many plants.
• Salicylic acid is a component of preparations used to combat warts, corns, calluses, and various skin diseases.

Linoleic acid:

• Linoleic acid is a polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid.
• It is a colourless or white oil that is virtually insoluble in water but very soluble in acetone, benzene, diethyl ether and ethanol.
• It typically occurs in nature as a triglyceride (ester of glycerin) rather than as a free fatty acid.
• It is one of two essential fatty acids for humans, who must obtain it through their diet.

Lactose: 

• Lactose is a large sugar molecule that is made up of two smaller sugar molecules, glucose and galactose.
• In order for lactose to be absorbed from the intestine and into the body, it must first be split into glucose and galactose.
• The glucose and galactose are then absorbed by the cells lining the small intestine.

From the given data,

Cost price of 10 kg of rice = 10 × 75 = Rs. 750

Cost price of 20 kg of sugar = 20 × 85 = Rs. 1700

Given that profit for rice is 20% and profit for sugar is 10%

We know that profit = Cost price × profit% /100 = 750 × 20/100 = Rs. 150

⇒ Selling Price of rice = cost price of rice + profit on rice = 150 + 750 = Rs. 900

Also for profit 10% for sugar

⇒ Profit on sugar = 1700 × 10/100 = Rs. 170

⇒ Selling Price of sugar = Cost price of sugar + profit on sugar = 1700 + 170 = Rs. 1870

∴ Total sale = SP of rice + SP of sugar = 900 + 1870 = Rs. 2770

Yellow fever is caused by a flavivirus; it is transmitted by the bite of mosquitoes, usually the Aedes aegypti mosquito, which had become infected by biting an infected human or animal (a monkey). An infected mosquito is a source of infection for the rest of its life.

Explanation:

For A, 'Vehicles move at 20 kmph during 5 pm to 9 pm'

Here, there is no mentioning about the time duration, 5 pm to 9 pm in the given statement

For B, 'Double parking is not a violation of traffic rules in the city'

Here, there is no mentioning about the violation of traffic rules in the given statement

For C, 'The number of private vehicles have gone up'

Here, in the statement it is given that 'The main reasons for vehicles crawling on city roads during peak hours are increasing number of private vehicles'

∴ It is clear from the statement that 'The number of private vehicles have gone up'

For D, 'The number of Government vehicles remain the same'

Here, there is no mentioning about the number of government vehicles in the given statement

∴ Statement C is true according to the given statement

Ascending order is the order of smaller value to the bigger value.

i.e. 0.65, 0.67, 0.76, 0.86

∴ Option C is the answer.

Zee, color and Sony all are TV channel name except "Screen"

Hence, "Screen" does not belong to the group.

Given that path has width 2.5 m

Length of the garden inclusive of the path = 10 + 2(2.5) = 15

Breadth of the garden inclusive of the path = 8 + 2 (2.5) = 13

∴ Area of the garden, inclusive of the path = length × breadth = 15 × 13 = 195 sq.m

A. All of them are found in India. → Not True (As Jaguar is not found in India, Jaguar is mainly found in south America) 

B. B. All of them belong to the cat family. →True (They all belong to cat family)

C. All of their young ones are called kittens. → Not True (Baby Lion,Tiger, Jaguar and Leopard is called "Cub")

D. There is no similarity. → Not True (As there are many similarity)

Hence, option 4) is the correct answer.

The history of the British Raj refers to the period of British rule on the Indian subcontinent between 1858 and 1947. The system of governance was instituted in 1858 when the rule of the East India Company was transferred to the Crown in the person of Queen Victoria (who in 1876 was proclaimed Empress of India).

Cost price of 10 kg of rice = Rs. 400 × 10 = Rs. 4000

Cost price of 5 kg of rice = Rs. 2000 and the cost price of the remaining 5 kg of rice = Rs. 2000

Also given that trader got 20% loss for half of the quantity

We know that loss% = (CP - SP)/CP × 100

⇒ 20 = (2000 - SP)/2000 × 100

⇒ 200000 - 40000 = 100SP

⇒ SP = Rs. 1600

∴ Loss for first half = 2000 - 1600 = Rs. 400

Also given that profit for second half is 10%

⇒ 10 = (SP - 2000)/2000 × 100

⇒ 100SP = 20000 + 200000

⇒ SP = 2200

 Profit for second half = 2200 - 2000 = Rs. 200

∴ Net there is a loss of Rs. 200

Final loss % = (net loss/total cost price × 100) = 200/4000 × 100 = 5%

Vikram Ambalal Sarabhai was an Indian scientist and innovator widely regarded as the father of India's space programme. Sarabhai received the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Medal in 1962

The correct answer is Firewall protects the computer from fire(which is an odd statement).

• A firewall put simply, is a barrier – a barrier between a secure and trusted internal network and that of an outside network.
• Firewalls can be implemented in both hardware and software, or through a combination of both.

Additional Information

• Following types of Firewalls -

1. Packet-filtering firewall: It checks every packet that passes the firewall and examines the packet as per the set of rules that the user sets up. If the packet gets to pass the test, it’s allowed to go through. If the packet fails to pass the test then it is rejected. Packet filters are the most inexpensive variety of firewalls. That is why packet-filtering firewalls are used very commonly.
2. Stateful packet inspection (SPI): It is installed in accordance with simple packet filtering. A firewall having Stateful packet checking looks at packets in clusters instead of doing individually. It maintains the record of all those packets have crossed through the firewall and can create patterns that indicate unauthorized entry.
3. Deep packet inspection (DPI): It is the actual data of the packets is checked so viruses, spam, and other harmful content can be restricted. DPI also enables practices, such as data mining, eavesdropping, and content censorship, which make its way through a controversial subject.

We know that area of the circle = π × r² = π × [(28)/2]² = 616 sq.m

∴ Cost of leveling circular ground = 616 × 125 = Rs. 77, 000

Yankee Stadium is a stadium located in the Concourse section of the Bronx, a borough of New York City. It serves as the home ballpark for the New York Yankees of Major League Baseball.

We know that cosec θ is positive in first quadrant

⇒ cosec (90° - θ) = sec θ

Let the cost price be Rs. x

We know that profit % = (Selling price - cost price)/cost price × 100

⇒ 25 = (2100 - x)/x × 100

⇒ 25x + 100x = 210000

⇒ 125x = 210000

⇒ x = 1680

∴ Cost price x = Rs. 1,680

The logic is:

Similarly,

Hence, ‘5323684’ is the correct answer.

Here option A is correct as sellers are not cheating the public, people spending money should be logical.

• An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.
• It works because of electromagnetic induction, which is when a voltage is induced by a changing magnetic field.
• That would make the copper coil inside the motor turn around repeatedly inside its permanent magnet. Electric motor thus makes mechanical energy through the interaction between magnetic fields.
• The reverse of this is the conversion of mechanical energy into electrical energy and it is done by an electric generator.

• A force, arising from the body's inertia, which appears to act on a body moving in a circular path and is directed away from the centre around which the body is moving.

Note: The force that pushes us to the outside is asked don't confuse with force pusses us in inside.

We know that if a man covers a distance d₁ km at s₁km/hr and then d₂ km at s₂ km/hr, then the average speed during the whole journey = [s₁s₂(d₁ + d₂)]/(s₁d₂ + s₂d₁)

s₁ = 60kmph, s₂ = 80kmph, d₁ = 30km, and d₂ = 20km.

⇒ Average speed = [60 × 80 (30 + 20)]/(60 × 20 + 80 × 30) = 240000/3600 = 66.67 kmph

From given data, we get

⇒ x + y = 19         - - - equation (1)

⇒ x - y = 7            - - - equation (2)

By adding equation (1) and equation (2), we get

⇒ 2x = 26

⇒ x = 13

Substitute x = 13 in equation (1), we get

⇒ 13 + y = 19

⇒ y = 6

∴ xy = 13 × 6 = 78

Part of the tank filled in one min = 1/20

Part of the tank emptied in one min = 1/60

⇒ Part of the tank to be filled due to leakage in one min = 1/20 - 1/60 = 2/60 = 1/30

∴ Tank will be filled in 30 minutes

As per the given data,

Let the required mean score be x,

Then 20/100 × 60 + 30/100 × 40 + 50/100 × x = 58

⇒ 1200 + 1200 + 50x = 5800

⇒ 2400 + 50x = 5800

⇒ 50x = 5800 - 2400 = 3400

⇒ x = 3400/50 = 68

Out of 50 kids in a colony,

10 like only basketball,

25 like only football,

10 like both volleyball and football and

5 like only volleyball.

⇒ Kids who do not like volleyball = Total number of Kids(50) - Kids who like only volleyball(5) - kids who like both volleyball and football(10)

⇒ Kids who do not like volleyball = 50 - 5 - 10 = 35

Hence, 35 is the correct answer.

Out of 50 kids in a colony,

10 like only basketball,

25 like only football,

10 like both volleyball and football and

5 like only volleyball.

⇒ Ratio = Number of kids who play football : Number of kids who like only basketball 

⇒ Number of kids who play football = Kids who play only football + Kids who play both volleyball and football 

⇒ Number of kids who play football  = 25 + 10 = 35

⇒ Ratio = 35 : 10

⇒ Ratio = 7 : 2

Hence, 7/2 is the correct answer.

Out of 50 kids in a colony,

10 like only basketball,

25 like only football,

10 like both volleyball and football and

5 like only volleyball.

⇒ Number of kids who play only one sports = number of kids who play only baseball + Number of kids who play only football + Number of kids who play only volleyball.

Hence, 

⇒ Number of kids who play only one sports = 10 + 25 + 5 = 40.

Hence, 40 is the correct answer.

Here colours are given of things, like snow is white, Blood is red, Grass is green, but Sky is not brown, sky is blue.

D. Tax on eating out must be reduced. → False (It should be but nothing is mentioned in statement about tax reduction so we cannot say it)

Hence, option 3) is the correct answer.

Given that ratio of marks in 3 subjects was x : 2x : 3x

Also given that 5% grace is allowed in each subject

⇒ Ratio's will become = 5x/100 : 10x/100 : 15x/100 = 5x : 10x : 15x = 1 : 2 : 3

Let the distance covered by 50kmph be x km

Given that if the speed is increased by 10 kmph, then the distance covered is (x + 20) km

Also given that time is same for both the cases

⇒ x/50 = (x + 20)/60

⇒ 50x + 1000 = 60x

⇒ 1000 = 10x

⇒ x = 1000/10 = 100 km

∴ Actual distance covered = 100 km
