1. In a two-dimensional array, X (9, 7), with each element occupying 8 
bytes of memory, with the address of the first element X (1, 1) is 
3000, find 
the address of X (8, 5).

Soln:- The position of the target element from the start is ((8-1)*7) + 
5 = 54.
       Hence, the starting addr of it is 3000 + (54-1)*8 = 3424 [Since 
1st
       element's addr is already considered]

ans:-3424

Revise such type of question these are very easy ,be cool , it's a 
very easy 
one, concern previous year question 

7 The size of a program is N. And the memory occupied by the program 
is 
given by M = square root of 4000N. If the size of the program is 
increased by 
1% then how much memory now occupied? 

Soln:- M1 = sqrt(S1) = sqrt(4000N)
       S2 = 101%S1 = 1.01N
       M2 = sqrt(S2) = sqrt(4000*(1.01N)) = sqrt(4040N)

       Though doing upto this is sufficient, you may go a bit further
       by calculating the % increase.

       %increase = (((sqrt(4040N) - sqrt(4000N)) / sqrt(4000N)) * 100) 
%
                 = (((sqrt(40N) * (sqrt(101) - sqrt(100))) / (sqrt(40N) 
* sqrt(100))) * 100) %
                 = (((sqrt(101) - 10) / 10) * 100) %
                 = ((10 * sqrt(101)) - 100) %
                 = ((10 * 10.05) - 100) %
                 = (100.5 - 100) %
                 = 0.5 %

8 In which of the system, decimal number 384 is equal to 1234? 
(data may be changed) 

Soln:- Let the system be of base n.
       So, n^3+(2*n^2)+(3*n)+4 = 384 [Try for some arbit values like 
5,6,7]

9 Number of faces, vertices and edges of a cube ans:-8,6,12 R 

10 Complete the series 10,11,12,17,---,26,22 

Soln:- There are actually two series here - 
       1> 10, 12, ..., 22 [diffs are 2, 4, 6, ...]
       2> 11, 17, 26 [diffs are 6, 9, ...]
       So the answer will be 16

11 Find the value of >>+25-++>16, where >denotes "square" and + 
denotes 
"square root". 

Soln:- >>+25-++>16 = (>(>(+(25)))) - (+(+(>(16))))
                   = (sqr(sqr(sqrt(25)))) - (sqrt(sqrt(sqr(16))))
                   = (sqr(25)) - (sqrt(16))
                   = 625 - 4 = 621

12 Find the result of the following _expression if, M denotes modulus 
operation, R denotes round-off, T denotes truncation: 
M(373,5)+R(3.4)+T(7.7)+R(5.8)

Soln:- M(373,5)+R(3.4)+T(7.7)+R(5.8) = 3 + 3 + 7 + 6 = 19

ans:-19
 
13 G(0)=-1, G(1)=1, G(N)=G(N-1) - G(N-2), G(5)= ?

Soln:- G(2) = G(1) - G(0) = 1 - (-1) = 2
       G(3) = G(2) - G(1) = 2 - 1 = 1
       G(4) = G(3) - G(2) = 1 - 2 = -1
       G(5) = G(4) - G(3) = (-1) - 1 = -2

ans:- -2

14 G(0)=1, G(1)=-1, G(N)=2*G(N-1) -3* G(N-2), G(5)= ?

Soln:- G(2)=2*G(1) -3* G(0) = 2*(-1) - 3*1 = -5
       G(3)=2*G(2) -3* G(1) = 2*(-5) - 3*(-1) = -7
       G(4)=2*G(3) -3* G(2) = 2*(-7) - 3*(-5) = 1
       G(5)=2*G(4) -3* G(3) = 2*1 - 3*(-7) = 23

ans:- 23

        R  B  E  K  G  I
       -----------------
       -2 +1 -1 +1 -1 +1

       Hence,
        R  B  D  J  K
       -2 +1 -1 +1 -1

16 A power unit is there by the bank of the river of 900 meters width. 
A cable is made from power unit to power a plant opposite to that of 
the river 
and 3000mts away from the power unit. The cost of the cable below 
water is Rs. 
5/- per meter and cost of cable on the bank is Rs.4/- per meter. Find 
the total 
of laying the cable.

Soln:- Total cost under water = 900 * 5 = 4500 Rs
       Total cost on land = (3000 - 900) * 4 = 2100 * 4 = 8400 Rs
       Hence, total cost of laying = (4500 + 8400) = 12900 Rs

17 In calcutta, temperature at noon varies according to 

-t^2/6 + 12t + 12, where t is elapsed time from noon. Find how much 
temperature 
more or less in 3pm to 9pm

Soln:- at time 't' hrs from noon, temp in Cal = -t^2/6 + 12t + 12
       So, at 3 pm, temp = -3^2/6 + 12*3 + 12 = -1.5 + 36 + 12 = 46.5
       and, at 9 pm, temp = -9^2/6 + 12*9 + 12 = -13.5 + 108 + 12 = 
106.5

       Hence, at 9 pm, temp is (106.5 - 46.5) = 60 more than that at 3 
pm.

18 The size of the bucket is N kb. The bucket fills at the rate of 
0.1 kb

milliseconds.

programmer, after 
it is sent?

21 If A, B and C are the mechanisms used separately to reduce the 
wastage of fuel by 30%, 20% and 10%. What will be the fuel economy if 
they were used 
combined.

Soln:- Using A, wastage reduces to, (100-30)=70%
       Using B, wastage reduces to, (70-(70*20%))=(70-14)=56%
       Using C, wastage reduces to, (56-(56*10%))=(56-5.6)=50.4%
Ans:- 51.4%

24 A Flight takes off at 2 A.M from northeast direction and travels 
for 11 
hours to reach the destination which is in north west direction. 
Given the 
latitude and longitude of source and destination. Find the local time 
of 
destination when the flight reaches there? R 

25 A can copy 50 papers in 10 hours while both A & B can copy 70 papers 
in 
10 hours. Then for how many hours required for B to copy 26 
papers

Soln:- A+B ----- 70 papers in 10 hrs
       A   ----- 50 papers in 10 hrs

   So,   B ----- 20 papers in 10 hrs
         B ----- 26 papers in (10/20)*26= 13 hrs


26 if a man A can do a work in 10 days and b can do the same work in 
15 days then find total wage given is 225 . find the wage of A. 

Soln:- In 1 day,
                A does 1/10th of the job
                B does 1/15th of the job

       So, the ratio of wages should be,
           A:B = (1/10): (1/15)
               = 15 : 10
               = 3 : 2

       Hence, the wage of A should be (3/5)*225 = 135

Ans:- 135

PSYCHOMETRY GROUPING 
I have grouped the psychometric questions numbering 150. as it is not 
possible for me to write each question I am indicating only the 
numbers. Its up to u to correspond to the questions 

At the outset I would like to clearly state that this version has no 
guarantee to be the correct version. Actually some 30/150 questions 
fall in to many groups and the line differentiating them is very 
thin. I have tried my best to group them. 

Talking about the groups- they are 11 in number. As I have mentioned- 
this is not the only correct version- but this can be one. So if u 
feel u can group them more finer u can subdivide them in to many more. 

I would advise u strictly to go through the whole set of groups and 
define urselves- the key to psychometric test is to define who u are 
and then start looking in to deeply the questions. 

Each group represents a character or personality- u will decide which 
of the following attributes u would like to include in ur personality. 

GROUP 1  LEADERSHIP QUALITIES 

2  3   28  39  53   73  103  128 

GROUP 2 SOCIABLE NATURE 

4    9  13  14  24  29  44  49  54  59  64  70  74  79  88  89  109   
114  119  139 

GROUP 3 BALANCED PSYCHE  people who are balanced- not wavery in their 
moods etc.. etc 

5    10  15  16  35  40  41  45  52  55 60  65  75  80  95  105  130   
145  148 

GROUP 4 DAYDREAMERS 

50 100 107  125 

GROUP 5  PATIENCE   AND ATTRIBUTE OF TAKING RID=GHT DECISIONS AFTER 
CAREFUL ANALYSIS 

22 27 47  67  72  86  92  96  102  112  117  126  134  136  137  140   
142  147 

GROUP 6  EASYGOING AND CAREFREE NATURED PERSONALITIES 

6    20 25 32 57 68  77 82  87  90  98  115  123  127  132  135  150 

GROUP 7 ENTHUSIASTIC PERSONALITIES 

1    17  42  66  78  85  99 110  141  144 

GROUP 8  SLOW SLUGGISH DULL PERSONALITIES 

7    11  21  30  31  36  46  51  56  61  76  81  91  106  116  101   
146 

GROUP 9  SERIOUS PERSONALITIES 

12 26 37 62 97 111 120 124 143 

GROUP 10   STRONG  FULL OF ENERGY 

71    121  122 131 

GROUP 11     DIFFIDANT    (shy, not able to ask even the most 
required thing.. etc..) 

8    18 19 23  33 34  38  43(34)  48  58  63(34)  69  83  84(38)  93   
104(34)  108  113  118(34)  129  133  149 

read the following before proceeding 

1.    the last group is bigger and within the group itself a small 
subgrouping is done- the no. in the bracket is the parent question to 
which the no outside the bracket belongs to- hope u understand 
2.    strictly- this may not be 100 % right as many questions look 
very similar. So go thru and make alterations if u feel so. 
3.    in each groups there r 2 kinds of questions- if u say yes to 
some and no to others u will land up at the same definition. So its 
ur common sense to understand the affirmative and negative tones of 
each question and answer accordingly- u shld know when to answer no 
and yes for each question in the same group- 
4.    some groups itself are opposite to each other and can be 
grouped together- but I have separated them on the basis of finer 
inferences eg:- serious persons cant be easy going type. if u say no 
to any question on serious group question u will land as an easygoing 
personality and vice versa- so they can be put under a single group-   
but some finer points prevent from doing so 
ALL THE BEST
