Option 3: .gif
Option 4: .mdb
Correct Answer: .mdb
Solution : The correct option is .mdb.

Question : Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank. Sitting at the computer, I saw something large and dark fall past my______ vision, followed by a dull thwack.
Option 1: central
Option 2: external
Option 3: peripheral
Option 4: incidental
Correct Answer: peripheral
Solution : The correct choice is the third option.
The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is peripheral.
In this context, "peripheral vision" refers to the outer part of the visual field, which allows the speaker to perceive objects and movement outside of his direct line of sight.
Therefore, the complete sentence would be: "Sitting at the computer, I saw something large and dark fall past my peripheral vision, followed by a dull thwack."
Question : Which of the following statements is incorrect?
Option 1: Only those assets which are expected to be realized within a year should be included in current assets.
Option 2: Those liabilities, which are expected to be paid within a year, should be included in current liabilities. Those long-term loans and debentures, which will be due for payment within one year, are also included in current liabilities.
Option 3: Loose Tools, Patents, Goodwill, Trade Marks and Computer Software are not included in current assets.
Option 4: Bank Overdrafts should not be included in current liabilities.
Correct Answer: Bank Overdrafts should not be included in current liabilities.
Solution : Answer = Bank Overdrafts should not be included in current liabilities.
Bank overdraft is a part of current liabilities. Bank overdrafts are typically classified as current liabilities since they are repayable on demand or within a short timeframe, making them a part of the company's short-term obligations. Hence, the correct option is 4.
Question : Comprehension:
In the following passage, some words have been deleted. Read the passage carefully and select the most appropriate option to fill in each blank.
A robot is a mechanical or virtual artificial agent, usually an electromechanical machine that is (1)______ by a computer programme or electronic circuitry. In general, robots can be autonomous or semi-autonomous and are now used in different fields. They have replaced (2)_______ in performing repetitive and dangerous tasks which humans prefer not to do, or are unable to do because of size limitations, or which take place in extreme (3)________ such as outer space or the bottom of the sea. For instance, robots can now be used in industry, as in car manufacturing, or they can be used in homes to do the (4)_______. Some robots may respond to speech or even be medical operating tools. There are concerns about the increasing use of robots and their role in society. Robots are blamed for the rising (5)________ as they replace workers in increasing numbers of functions.
Question:
Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank number 2.
Option 1: machines
Option 2: humans
Option 3: agents
Option 4: toys
Correct Answer: humans
Solution : The correct choice is the second option.
The sentence talks about tasks that are repetitive or dangerous, which humans might avoid due to preference or limitations. In such cases, machines are often used to perform these tasks instead of humans.
Therefore, the complete sentence would be: "They have replaced humans in performing repetitive and dangerous tasks that humans prefer not to do or are unable to do because of size limitations."

Creditors Rs. 70,000; Building Rs. 1,00,000; Plant and Machinery Rs. 40,000; Stock of Raw Materials Rs. 20,000; Stock of Finished Goods Rs. 30,000, Debtors Rs.20,000. Following was agreed among the partners on B's retirement: (a) Building to be appreciated by 20%. (b) Plant and Machinery to be reduced by 10%. (c) A Provision of 5% on Debtors to be created for Doubtful Debts. (d) Stock of Raw Materials to be valued at Rs. 18,000 and Finished Goods at Rs. 35,000. (e) An Old Computer previously written off was sold for Rs. 2,000 as scrap. (f) Firm had to pay Rs. 5,000 to an injured employee.
Question: Revaluation profit is
Option 1: 20,000
Option 2: 17,000
Option 3: 15,000
Option 4: None of these
Correct Answer: 15,000
Solution : Answer = 15,000
Revaluation A/c
Hence, the correct option is 3.
Question : C++ is an example of which type of computer language?
Option 1: Visual Programming Language
Option 2: Object-Oriented Language
Option 3: Business Data Processing
Option 4: String and List Processing
Correct Answer: Object-Oriented Language
Solution : The correct answer is Object-Oriented Language.
High-level, general-purpose programming languages like C++ are made for creating systems and applications. It was created as an addition to the C programming language by Bjarne Stroustrup at Bell Laboratories in 1983.

Question :
Under computerised accounting, data means
Option 1:
Users
Option 2: A logical sequence of actions to perform a task
Option 3: The raw fact (as input) for any business application
Option 4: Computer, associated peripherals, and their network
Correct Answer: The raw fact (as input) for any business application
Solution : People means users. A logical sequence of actions to perform a task is a procedure. Computer, associated peripherals, and their network are called hardware. The raw fact (as input) for any business application is called data. Hence the correct option is 3.
Question : In computer science, data hazard occurs when
Option 1: pipeline changes the order of read/write access to operands.
Option 2: performance loss.
Option 3: machine size is limited.
Option 4: some functional unit is not fully pipelined.
Correct Answer: pipeline changes the order of read/write access to operands.
Solution : The correct answer is pipeline changes the order of read/write access to operands.
When the pipeline alters the sequence of read/write accesses to operands, the order changes from the order observed by sequential executing instructions on the unpipelined processor. A data hazard occurs when two instructions need to access the same operand and one of the instructions needs to write to the operand.
Hello aspirant,
As of 2024, a UGC and AICTE ruling prohibits a Bio student from pursuing a BTech in computer science in India after completing their 12th year of education. Courses in mathematics, physics, and chemistry are prerequisites for BTech engineering programmes for all applicants.
