Stratosphere Thermosphere Mesosphere Troposphere The correct answer is Troposphere.Almost all the clouds are found in the Troposphere.Key PointsTroposphereThe troposphere is the lowest portion of Earth’s atmosphere and contains approximately 80% of the atmosphere’s mass and 99% of its water vapour and aerosols.The average depth of the troposphere is approximately 17 km in the middle latitudes.The characteristic features of the Troposphere are its great density.In addition to nitrogen and oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water vapour (nearly all of the water vapour contained in the atmosphere is concentrated in the troposphere) and numerous particles of various originIt thickness of the Troposphere is maximum at the equator, deeper in the tropics, up to 20 km, and shallower near the polar regions, at 7 km in summer, and indistinct in winter.In India, it is taken to be around 16 Kilometers.The thickness of the troposphere and consequently the atmosphere is maximum at the equator.Almost all the clouds are found in the troposphere.Additional InformationStratosphereIt is the second layer of the atmosphere found above the troposphere.It extends up to 50 km in height.This layer is very dry as it contains little water vapour.This layer provides some advantages for flight because it is above stormy weather and has steady, strong, horizontal winds.The ozone layer is found in this layer.The ozone layer absorbs UV rays and safeguards the earth from harmful radiation.Stratopause separates Stratosphere and Mesosphere.MesosphereIt is the coldest of the atmospheric layers.The mesosphere starts at 50 km above the surface of Earth and goes up to 85 km.The temperature drops with altitude in this layer.By 80 km it reaches -100 degrees Celsius.Meteors burn up in this layer.Mesopause separates Mesosphere and Thermosphere.ThermosphereThis layer is found above Mesopause from 80 to 400 km.Radio waves that are transmitted from the earth are reflected by this layer.The temperature increases with height.Satellites occur in this layer.ExosphereIt is the outermost layer of the atmosphere.The zone where molecules and atoms escape into space is mentioned as the exosphere.It extends from the top of the thermosphere up to 10,000 km.2 / 25Eight friends A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H are sitting around circular table facing each other for a lunch. A is opposite D and third to the right of B. G is between A and F. H is to the immediate right of A. E is between C and D. Who is sitting opposite C? B F G E Arranging them according to the given information,A is opposite D and third to the right of B.E is between C and D.G is between A and F.H is to the immediate right of A.‘F’ is sitting opposite C.Hence, “F” is the correct answer.3 / 25The product of two even consecutive numbers is 168. Find the sum of numbers. 20 22 24 26 4 / 25Select the segment of the sentence that contains a grammatical error. If there is no error mark 'No error' as your answer.Despite of her fear (A)/, she wrapped her arms (B)/ around him (C)./ No error(D) A B C D Here the correct answer is A. Key Points:-In the above-given sentence, the error is in part A.It is so because the preposition 'of' is never used with despite.'In spite of' and 'despite' mean the same, the only difference being that preposition 'of' is not used with despite.Meaning of In spite of and despite - Without being affected by the particular factor mentioned.For Examples:-In spite of being late, he was allowed to enter the office.Despite being late, he was allowed to enter the office.Therefore, 'of' will be removed from the above-given sentence.Hence, the correct sentence is 'Despite her fear, she wrapped her arms around him'. ऊपर दिए गए वाक्य में त्रुटि भाग A में है ।ऐसा इसलिए है क्योंकि पूर्वसर्ग 'of' का despite के साथ कभी भी प्रयोग नहीं किया जाता है।'In spite of' और 'despite' का अर्थ एक ही है, केवल अंतर यह है कि 'of' पूर्वसर्ग का प्रयोग despite के साथ नहीं किया जाता है।In spite of और despite का अर्थ - उल्लेखित विशेष कारक से प्रभावित हुए बिना ।उदाहरण के लिए:-In spite of being late, he was allowed to enter the office.Despite being late, he was allowed to enter the office.अतः ऊपर दिए गए वाक्य में से 'of' हटा दिया जाएगा। इसलिए, सही वाक्य है 'Despite her fear, she wrapped her arms around him'.5 / 25The LCM of x and y is 2079 and their HCF is 27. If x = 189, what will be the value of y? 267 167 197 297 6 / 25Select the most appropriate option to improve the underlined segment in the given sentence. If there is no need to improve it, select 'no improvement required'.Saroj has been suffering with osteoporosis from when she was fifty years old. from osteoporosis since from osteoporosis from when with osteoporosis since no improvement required The most appropriate option to improve the underlined segment: from osteoporosis sinceKey Points'From' should be used in place of 'with' and 'Since' should be used in place of 'when' to make the sentence correct.The verb 'suffering' always takes the preposition 'from' when it refers to a disease.'Since' is used as a preposition to introduce a date or a specific time in the past, it is normally used with present perfect and past perfect tenses.Structure of the Present Perfect Continuous Tense: Subject + have/has + been + present participle + the rest of the sentenceExample - We've been waiting for you since 10 o'clock.Therefore the correct answer is option 1.Corrected sentence: Saroj has been suffering from osteoporosis since she was fifty years old.7 / 25Direction: In the question, a statement is given, followed by two arguments, I and II. You have to consider the statement to be true even if it seems to be at variance from commonly known facts. You have to decide which of the given arguments, if any, is a strong argument.Statement: Should all private schools be closed?Arguments: I. No, where will the children of rich people study.II. Yes, they take too much money. If only argument I is strong. If only argument II is strong. If both argument I and II are strong. If neither argument I nor II is strong. Arguments:I. No, where will the children of rich people study - Not implicit, because private schools are not only for rich people. Children of some middle class family also study in these private school.II. Yes, they take too much money. - Not implicit, because there are many private schools which do not take too much money for education.Hence, Neither I nor II argument is strong.8 / 25What is the missing term in the series?YB25, WD23, ____, SH19 UG21 UF21 uF20 UG20 The pattern followed is,Hence, UF21 is the correct answer.9 / 25Select the option that can be used as a one-word substitute for the given group of words.Unfairly take something belonging to another for one’s use Misconstrue Misinterpret Misappropriate Misapprehend The correct answer is 'Misappropriate'.

Instantaneous velocity Variable velocity Average velocity Uniform velocity The correct answer is Instantaneous velocity.Key PointsInstantaneous velocity:It is defined as the velocity of an object under motion at any given instant of time. So, option 1 is correct.The SI unit of instantaneous velocity is m/s.The average velocity of an object is defined as its total displacement divided by the total time taken.Variable velocity is defined as the change of velocity with time.Uniform velocity: A body is said to have uniform velocity if it covers equal distance in equal intervals of time in a particular direction.20 / 25If the sum of fraction21/2 ,37/3 , is x and sum of the fraction20/6,16/3 is y then x – y = ? 83/6 85/6 87/6 89/6 21 / 25The average of 50 observations is 36.
