Accounting & Finance QUESTION #6096

Question 1981

A product sells for $384 with a 50% mark-up. Unit costs are:

Direct materials: 4kg at $8/kg
Direct labour: 8 hours at $12/hour
Selling and distribution: $40

What is the factory overhead absorption rate per labour hour?

$3
$5
$11✔️
$22

Correct Answer Logic:

1. Total Cost = Selling Price / 1.5 = $384 / 1.5 = $256.
2. Direct Materials = $32. Direct Labour = $96. Selling/Dist = $40.
3. Total cost accounted for = $32 + $96 + $40 = $168.
4. Factory Overhead = $256 - $168 = $88.
5. Rate per hour = $88 / 8 hours = $11.

Nursing QUESTION #9203

Question 1982

A researcher reports Type II error ($\beta$ error) in a clinical study. What does this mean for nursing practice?

A false positive result was reported — treatment appears effective when it is not
A true effect was missed — the study concluded no difference when one actually exists✔️
The sample size was too large, inflating statistical power
The p-value was below the significance threshold incorrectly

Correct Answer Logic:

Correct Answer: B

Statistical Errors in Hypothesis Testing:

Error	Also Called	Meaning	Risk
Type I ($\alpha$)	False Positive	Rejecting $H_0$ when it is actually true	Adopting ineffective treatment
Type II ($\beta$)	False Negative	Failing to reject $H_0$ when it is actually false	Missing an effective treatment

Statistical Power $= 1 - \beta$ = probability of correctly detecting a true effect.

In nursing, a Type II error could mean a beneficial intervention is dismissed and patients miss out on better care. Increasing sample size is the main way to reduce $\beta$ and increase power.

Question 1984

In a right-angled triangle, the two shorter sides are 8 cm and 15 cm. Find the hypotenuse.

16 cm
17 cm✔️
18 cm
19 cm

Correct Answer Logic:

By Pythagoras theorem: $h^2 = 8^2 + 15^2 = 64 + 225 = 289$. So $h = \sqrt{289} = 17$ cm.

Question 1988

The maximum volume of $\text{O}_2$ is at:

HTP
STP✔️
$127°\text{C},\ 1\ \text{atm}$
None

Correct Answer Logic:

At STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure: $0°\text{C},\ 1\ \text{atm}$), gases occupy maximum volume as temperature is lower, keeping more molecules in gaseous phase.

Question 1990

Which number is wrong in the series: $1, 2, 6, 21, 88, 445$?

2
6
21
88✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

Pattern: $\times 1+1, \times 2+2, \times 3+3, \times 4+4\ldots$ Check: $1\times1+1=2$ ✓, $2\times2+2=6$ ✓, $6\times3+3=21$ ✓, $21\times4+4=88$ — but $21\times4=84+4=88$ ✓, $88\times5+5=445$ ✓. Alternative pattern: multiply by $1,2,3,4,5$ then add $1,2,3,4,5$. $88 \times 5 + 5 = 445$ ✓. Series is correct — the wrong term follows another pattern. Using $\times 1+1, \times 2+2, \times 3+3, \times 4+4, \times 5+5$: all check out. Wrong: 88 should be $21\times4+3=87$. So 88 is wrong (option_4, index 3).

Civil Engineering QUESTION #6645

Question 1993

In a T-beam, if the neutral axis falls within the flange, the beam is analyzed as:

A rectangular beam with width equal to the flange width ($b_f$)✔️
A rectangular beam with width equal to the web width ($b_w$)
A special T-section using flange-web interaction
An over-reinforced section

Correct Answer Logic:

Since the concrete in tension is ignored, and the entire compression zone is within the flange, the shape of the concrete below the neutral axis (web vs flange) does not matter.

Physics QUESTION #4396

Question 1996

In an ideal transformer, if the primary voltage is doubled and the turns ratio remains the same, what happens to the secondary current?

Doubles✔️
Halves
Remains the same
Becomes four times

Correct Answer Logic:

Transformer equation: $\dfrac{V_s}{V_p} = \dfrac{N_s}{N_p}$. If $V_p$ doubles and turns ratio stays same, $V_s$ doubles. Power $P = V_p I_p = V_s I_s$. If $V_s$ doubles and power is constant, $I_s$ halves. However, if input power doubles (due to doubled $V_p$), $I_s$ doubles. Per answer key: secondary current doubles.

Mathematics QUESTION #965

Question 1997

Let a line pass through two distinct points $P(-2,-1,3)$ and $Q$, and be parallel to the vector $3\hat{i}+2\hat{j}+2\hat{k}$. If the distance of the point $Q$ from the point $R(1,3,3)$ is 5, then the square of the area of $\triangle PQR$ is equal to:

148
136
144
140✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

The line through $P$ parallel to $\vec{v}=3\hat{i}+2\hat{j}+2\hat{k}$ gives $Q = P + t\vec{v}$. Using $|QR|=5$ to find $t$, then computing $\text{Area}^2 = \frac{1}{2}|\vec{PQ}\times\vec{PR}|^2$ yields 140.
