3) 36 years
4) 38 years
5) 42 years
6. 1
Let the present age of Raju and his father be 2x and
5x respectively.
Hence, (2x + 4)/(5x + 4) = 5/11
22x + 44 = 25x + 20
3x = 24
x=8
Fathers age 5 years ago = 5 8 5 = 35 years

10. A 280-m-long train takes 20 sec to cross a person who is going in the same direction with the
speed of 6 km/h. After crossing that person, the train can reach next station in 45 min. How long
will that person take to reach the station after being crossed by train?
1) 7 hr 3 min
2) 6 hr 3 min
3) 7 hr 30 min
4) 7 hr 50 min
5) 6 hr 30 min
10. 1
Speed of the person = 6 km/hr

= 6 * 5/18 = 5/3 m/s

Let the speed of train be x m/s
20 = 280/(x - 5/3)
x - 5/3 = 14
x = 47/3m/s
Now the distance covered by train in 45 minutes.
= 47/3 * 60 * 45 = 42300
Time taken by person to cover the distance
= 42300/(6*5/18) = 25380 sec
25380/(60 * 60) = 7 hours 3 minutes

Night Class: English Quiz

Directions (Q. 1-10): Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below
it.

Every year, the sun irradiates the land masses on earth with the equivalent of 19,000 billion
tonnes of oil equivalent (toe). Only a fraction 9 billion toe would satisfy the worlds current
energy requirements. Put differently, in 20 minutes, the amount of solar energy falling on the earth
could power the planet for one year. Every hour the sun beams onto Earth more than enough
energy to satisfy global energy needs for an entire year. Solar energy is the technology used to
harness the suns energy and make it useable. Today, the technology produces less than one
tenth of one per cent of global energy demand. All energy originates with the sun except for
nuclear, geothermal and tidal energy. Solar energy comes to us as high intensity radiation (light
energy). As it falls on the earth, it is transformed into heat by any surface or material be it the
atmosphere, soil, buildings, or even the furniture in front of a window. This heat also drives the
worlds weather systems including wind, rain and river flow.

Through photosynthesis, plants also turn solar energy into new growth. Many people are familiar
with so-called photovoltaic cells, or solar panels, found on things like spacecraft, rooftops, and
handheld calculators. The cells are made of semiconductor materials like those found in
computer chips. When sunlight hits the cells, it knocks electrons loose from their atoms. As the
electrons flow through the cell, they generate electricity. Photo-voltaic were initially, and still are,
used to power small and medium-sized applications, from the calculator powered by a single
solar cell to off-grid homes powered by a photovoltaic array. They are an important and relatively
inexpensive source of electrical energy where grid power is inconvenient, unreasonably
expensive to connect, or simply unavailable. However, as the cost of solar electricity is falling,
solar power is also increasingly being used even in grid-connected situations as a way to feed
low-carbon energy into the grid. On a much larger scale, solar thermal power plants employ
various techniques to concentrate the suns energy as a heat source. The heat is then used to boil
water to drive a steam turbine that generates electricity in much the same fashion as coal and
nuclear power plants, supplying electricity for thousands of people. In one technique, long
troughs of Ushaped mirrors focus sunlight on a pipe of oil that runs through the middle. The hot

oil then boils water for electricity generation. Another technique uses movable mirrors to focus
the suns rays on a collector tower, where a receiver sits.

Molten salt flowing through the receiver is heated to run a generator. Other solar technologies
are passive. For example, big windows placed on the sunny side of a building allow sunlight to
heat-absorbent materials on the floor and walls. These surfaces then release the heat at night to
keep the building warm. Similarly, absorbent plates on a roof can heat liquid in tubes that supply
a house with hot water. Solar energy is lauded as an inexhaustible fuel source that is pollution
and often noise free. The technology is also versatile. For example, solar cells generate energy for
far-out places like satellites in Earth orbit and cabins deep in the Rocky Mountains as easily as
they can power downtown buildings and futuristic cars. But solar energy doesnt work at night
without a storage device such as a battery, and cloudy weather can make the technology
unreliable during the day. Solar technologies are also very expensive and require a lot of land
area to collect the suns energy at rates useful to lots of people. Despite the drawbacks, solar
energy use has surged at about 20 per cent a year over the past 15 years, thanks to rapidly falling
prices and gains in efficiency. Japan, Germany, and the United States are major markets for solar
cells. With tax incentives, solar electricity can often pay for itself in five to ten years.
