The French Revolution is associated with the collapse of the Bastille. The storming of the Bastille on July 14, 1789, is regarded as the beginning of the French Revolution. A royal castle and jail, the Bastille has come to represent the oppression of the Bourbon kings. The fortress's assault, a symbolic act of defiance against the king and the established order, inspired the French people to go on their fight for liberty, equality and brotherhood.

Question : Two pipes can fill a tank in 20 minutes and 30 minutes, respectively. When the tank was empty, the two pipes were opened. After some time, the first pipe was stopped, and the tank was filled in 18 minutes. After how much time had passed since the start, was the first pipe stopped?

Option 1: 5 minutes

Option 2: 8 minutes

Option 3: 10 minutes

Option 4: 12 minutes

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 8 minutes


Solution : Let the total capacity of the tank = LCM of 20 and 30
= 60 units
Efficiency of first pipe = $\frac{60}{20}$ = 3
Efficiency of second pipe = $\frac{60}{30}$ = 2
After $x$ minutes the first pipe was stopped, the first pipe worked for $x$ minutes and the second pipe worked for 18 minutes.
Therefore, 3 × $x$ + 18 × 2 = 60
⇒ 3$x$ = 24
⇒ $x$ = 8 minutes
Hence, the correct answer is 8 minutes.

Question : Comprehension:
Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the question of where and when the Black Death, the deadliest pandemic ever, originated is one of the biggest mysteries in human history. After all, the Black Death was the first wave of the second plague pandemic of the 14th to early 19th centuries. It killed some 50-60% of the population in Europe, the Middle East and North Africa and an unaccountable number of people in Central Asia. Different proposals, based on competing theories, have been put forward. But in 2017, I came across some records describing an intriguing medieval cemetery in Kara-Djigach, Chüy Valley, northern Kyrgyzstan, which I suspected may hold the key. As part of a multidisciplinary team co-led by Maria Spyrou at the University of Tubingen, we have now investigated several specimens from individuals buried at that site – and come up with an answer. The idea that the Black Death originated in the east – territories overlapping, roughly speaking, Central Asia, Mongolia and China – dates back to the contemporaries of the pandemic in Europe and the Islamic world. The modern, academic Chinese origin theory dates back to at least 1756-8 and a publication about the history of Central Asia by French scholar Joseph de Guignes.
What is the theme of the passage?

Option 1: Pitfall of Black Death

Option 2: Impact of Black Death

Option 3: Origin of Black Death

Option 4: History of Black Death

Team Careers360 15th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Origin of Black Death


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The passage primarily focuses on the mystery of the origin of the Black Death, discussing different proposals and theories, and introducing the findings of an investigation into a medieval cemetery in Kyrgyzstan that may hold the key to understanding where and when the Black Death originated.

Therefore, the appropriate theme of the passage is: Origin of Black Death.

Solution : The correct option is Blaise Pascal.

In 1653, the French scientist Blaise Pascal made significant contributions to the understanding of fluid mechanics, including the principle you mentioned. Pascal's law, also known as Pascal's principle, states that when pressure is applied to an enclosed fluid, it is transmitted undiminished throughout the fluid and to the walls of the container. This principle is a fundamental concept in fluid mechanics and has applications in hydraulic systems and various engineering and scientific fields.
