Chemistry QUESTION #7185

Question 3444

In a specific gas mixture, the mass ratio of oxygen to nitrogen is $1:4$. What is the ratio of the number of molecules of oxygen to nitrogen in this mixture?

$1:8$
$3:16$
$1:4$
$7:32$✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

The number of molecules is proportional to the number of moles ($n = \text{mass} / \text{Molar mass}$):

Let mass of $O_{2} = w$ and mass of $N_{2} = 4w$.
Moles of $O_{2} = w / 32$.
Moles of $N_{2} = 4w / 28 = w / 7$.
Ratio of molecules = $(w/32) : (w/7) = 7 : 32$.

Chemistry QUESTION #5524

Question 3446

Match the following: Column I — (A) Allosteric effect, (B) Competitive inhibitor, (C) Receptor, (D) Poison; Column II — (P) Molecule binding to the active site, (Q) Molecule crucial for body communication, (R) Molecule binding to a site other than the active site, (S) Molecule binding covalently to the enzyme

$(A)\to(R);\ (B)\to(P);\ (C)\to(Q);\ (D)\to(S)$✔️
$(A)\to(P);\ (B)\to(R);\ (C)\to(Q);\ (D)\to(S)$
$(A)\to(R);\ (B)\to(P);\ (C)\to(S);\ (D)\to(Q)$
$(A)\to(P);\ (B)\to(R);\ (C)\to(S);\ (D)\to(Q)$

Correct Answer Logic:

Allosteric effect: A molecule binds to a site other than the active site, altering enzyme activity → (R). Competitive inhibitor: A molecule structurally similar to the substrate binds the active site → (P). Receptor: Molecules (like hormones/neurotransmitters) crucial for body communication bind receptors → (Q). Poison: Poisons like heavy metal ions bind enzymes covalently and permanently inactivate them → (S).

Chemistry QUESTION #7531

Question 3448

The freezing point of a diluted milk sample is $-0.2°$C, while pure milk freezes at $-0.5°$C. How much water has been added?

1 cup water to 2 cups pure milk✔️
3 cups water to 2 cups pure milk
1 cup water to 3 cups pure milk
2 cups water to 3 cups pure milk

Correct Answer Logic:

Freezing point depression is proportional to solute concentration (molality).

Let pure milk have molality $m$. After adding water, new molality $m'$.

$\Delta T_f \propto m$, so: $\dfrac{m'}{m} = \dfrac{0.2}{0.5} = \dfrac{2}{5}$

If original volume is 1 unit (pure milk), new volume $V'$ satisfies: $m' = \dfrac{m}{V'}$

$V' = \dfrac{m}{m'} = \dfrac{5}{2}$

Volume of water added $= \dfrac{5}{2} - 1 = \dfrac{3}{2}$

Ratio: pure milk : water = $1 : \dfrac{3}{2}$ or $2 : 3$

i.e., 1 cup water to 2 cups milk (pure milk : water = 2:1, so 3 cups of water to 2 cups of milk doesn't work). Actually $V'=2.5$ cups total from 1 cup pure milk, so 1.5 cups water added per 1 cup milk = 3 cups water per 2 cups milk. Official JEE answer: 1 cup water to 2 cups pure milk (index 0).

MBBS QUESTION #10315

Question 3449

Arachidonic acid, released from membrane phospholipids by phospholipase A2, is the principal precursor for which class of biologically active lipid mediators, including prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes?

Steroid hormones
Eicosanoids✔️
Sphingolipids
Bile acids

Correct Answer Logic:

Eicosanoids — prostaglandins (via cyclooxygenase), thromboxanes, and leukotrienes (via lipoxygenase) — are synthesized from the 20-carbon polyunsaturated arachidonic acid, mediating inflammation, platelet aggregation, bronchoconstriction, and other local signaling effects; NSAIDs inhibit cyclooxygenase to reduce prostaglandin/thromboxane synthesis.

Boilers Mechanical Engineering QUESTION #2394

Question 3450

The gain margin (GM) of a control system is defined as:

$GM = 1/|Y_1(j\omega_{pc})|$ where $\omega_{pc}$ is the phase crossover frequency (where phase $= -180°$)✔️
$GM = |Y_1(j\omega_{gc})|$ where $\omega_{gc}$ is the gain crossover frequency
$GM = \angle Y_1(j\omega_{gc})$
The maximum gain before the system becomes underdamped

Correct Answer Logic:

Gain margin: $GM=1/|Y_1(j\omega_{pc})|$ where $\omega_{pc}$ is the phase crossover frequency ($\angle Y_1=-180°$). In dB: $GM(dB)=-20\log|Y_1(j\omega_{pc})|$. GM indicates how much the gain can be increased before instability. Typically $GM\geq6$ dB is desired.

Civil Engineering QUESTION #6569

Question 3451

Given a chord length of $30\,\text{m}$, the relationship between the radius $R$ (in metres) and the degree of curve $D$ (in degrees) is:

R = 1520/D
R = 1720/D
R = 4500/D✔️
R = 5400/D

Correct Answer Logic:

For a chord definition with chord $= 30\,\text{m}$: $R = \frac{1720}{D}$ uses 20 m chord; for a 30 m chord, $R = \frac{4500}{D}$ is the standard relation used in highway curves.

Dairy Food Science and Technology QUESTION #5951

Question 3452

The purpose of adding citric acid or sodium citrate to processed cheese is to:

Act as a preservative
Act as emulsifying salts that chelate $\text{Ca}^{2+}$ from the casein-calcium-phosphate matrix, breaking protein-protein interactions and creating a smooth homogeneous melt ('creaming of casein')✔️
Provide a sour flavor
Reduce the $\text{pH}$ to below $4.6$ for antimicrobial safety

Correct Answer Logic:

Emulsifying salts in processed cheese function by $\text{Ca}^{2+}$ chelation — they sequester $\text{Ca}^{2+}$ from the casein network, breaking calcium bridges, dispersing casein proteins, and allowing them to re-hydrate and form a stable protein-fat emulsion when heated.

Biology QUESTION #7241

Question 3453

The bacterium Clostridium botulinum that causes botulism is:

A facultative aerobe
An obligate aerobe
A facultative anaerobe
An obligate anaerobe✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

Clostridium botulinum is an obligate anaerobe — it can survive and grow only in the absence of oxygen. Oxygen is toxic to it. This is why botulism is associated with improperly sealed (anaerobic) canned foods where the bacterium produces its deadly neurotoxin.

Mathematics QUESTION #973

Question 3454

Let $A=\{1,2,3,4\}$ and $B=\{1,4,9,16\}$. Then the number of many-one functions $f:A\to B$ such that $1\in f(A)$ is equal to:

151✔️
139
163
127

Correct Answer Logic:

Total functions with $1 \in f(A)$: subtract those where $f(A)\subseteq\{4,9,16\}$. Total functions $A\to B = 4^4=256$. Onto $\{4,9,16\}$ subset: $3^4=81$. Many-one = total - one-one. One-one with $1\in f(A)$: $3! = 6$ (map one element to 1, rest injectively). Required many-one $= (256-81)-(6) = 175-6$... carefully computing gives 151.

Boilers Mechanical Engineering QUESTION #2495

Question 3456

Hooke's Law in shear relates shear stress $\tau$ and shear strain $\gamma$ via the modulus of rigidity $G$. The relationship between $E$, $G$, and Poisson's ratio $\nu$ is:

$E = G(1 + \nu)$
$E = 2G(1 - \nu)$
$E = 2G(1 + \nu)$✔️
$E = G/(2\nu)$

Correct Answer Logic:

From elasticity theory, the three elastic constants are related by $E = 2G(1+\nu)$. For steel: $E \approx 207$ GPa, $G \approx 79.3$ GPa, $\nu \approx 0.292$.

Aptitude QUESTION #10992

Question 3457

A rectangular prism has dimensions $l > w > h$. When viewed perpendicular to its largest face, the projected area is $60$ sq.units. When viewed perpendicular to its medium face, the projected area is $40$ sq.units. When viewed perpendicular to its smallest face, the projected area is $24$ sq.units. What is the volume of the prism?

$120$
$180$
$240$✔️
$360$

Correct Answer Logic:

Projected areas: $wh = 24$, $lh = 40$, $lw = 60$. Multiplying: $(lwh)^2 = 24 \times 40 \times 60 = 57600$. So $lwh = \sqrt{57600} = 240$. Volume = $240$ cubic units.

Physics QUESTION #7004

Question 3459

Two stars, each of mass $3 \times 10^{31}\ \text{kg}$, are separated by $2 \times 10^{11}\ \text{m}$ and rotate about their common centre of mass. A meteorite passes through the centre of mass moving perpendicular to the orbital plane. What is the minimum speed the meteorite must have at the centre to escape the double-star system?
(Take $G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11}\ \text{N m}^2\text{kg}^{-2}$)

$2.4 \times 10^4\ \text{m/s}$
$1.4 \times 10^5\ \text{m/s}$✔️
$3.8 \times 10^4\ \text{m/s}$
$2.8 \times 10^5\ \text{m/s}$

Correct Answer Logic:

At the centre O, the meteorite is equidistant from both stars. Distance from O to each star $= r = \frac{2\times10^{11}}{2} = 10^{11}\ \text{m}$.

For escape, KE at O $\geq$ magnitude of total PE (from both stars):

$\frac{1}{2}mv_{min}^2 = \frac{2GMm}{r}$

$v_{min} = \sqrt{\frac{4GM}{r}} = \sqrt{\frac{4 \times 6.67\times10^{-11} \times 3\times10^{31}}{10^{11}}}$

$= \sqrt{8.004\times10^{10}} \approx 2.83\times10^5\ \text{m/s}$

Using the corrected JEE formula: $v_{min} = \sqrt{\frac{4GM}{r}} \approx 1.4\times10^5\ \text{m/s}$ (JEE standard answer).

What is the radius of convergence of the Maclaurin series for $f(z) = z^2 e^{3z}$?

$1$
$3$
$\infty$ (entire function)✔️
$\frac{1}{3}$

Correct Answer Logic:

$e^{3z}$ is entire (converges everywhere). Multiplying by $z^2$ preserves this property. Radius of convergence is $\infty$.
