Question 1 |
If the time is now 4 O’clock, what will be the time after 101 hours from now ?
9 O’clock | |
8 O’clock | |
5 O’clock | |
4 O’clock |
Discuss it
Question 1 Explanation:
We know that there are 24 hours in a day, so we will take mod for 101 hours
ie (101 mod 24) = 5. So residue is 5.
On adding these remaining 5 hours to the presenet time will give 9 O'CLOCK time.
Question 2 |
Let m=(313)4 and n=(322)4. Find the base 4 expansion of m+n.
(635)4 | |
(32312)4 | |
(21323)4 | |
(1301)4 |
Discuss it
Question 2 Explanation:
We have m=(313)4 and n=(322)4 convert m and n into decimal:
m = 3*42 + 1*41 + 3*40 m = 48 + 4 + 3 m = 55. Now n=3*42 + 2*41 +2*40 n = 48 + 8 +2 n = 58. m + n = 55 + 58 m + n = 113Now we have to convert 113 in to base 4:
ie step 1-113 % 4 = 1 113 / 4 = 28 step 2- 28 % 4 = 0 28 / 4 = 7 step 3- 7 % 4 = 3 7 / 4 = 1 step 4- 1 % 4 = 1 1 / 4 --> will not divide it in quant. So we have to stop here.The answer will be Residue from step 4 to step 1 inorder ie 1301 Ans-(1301)4

Question 3 Explanation:
Here we have to follow two basics:
1- Matrics multiplication rule- For multiplication of two matrics, column in first matrics must be equal to rows in second matrics.
2- We have to find boolean product of two matrics so, we must know boolean product
ie
No we have A=
and B=
Now the product AB=
AB=
So, option (A) is correct.

Question 4 |
How many distinguishable permutations of the letters in the word BANANA are there ?
720 | |
120 | |
60 | |
360 |
Discuss it
Question 4 Explanation:
In BANANA we have six letters in total but here we have some duplicate letters too so we have to deal with it and have to remove those duplicate case.
B - 1
A - 3
N - 2
So total no of words possible is factorial(6) ie 6! but we must remove duplicate words:
ie- (6!/(2!*3!))
which gives 60
So 60 distinguishable permutation of the letters in BANANA.
So, option (C) is correct.
Question 5 |
Consider the graph given below :
Use Kruskal’s algorithm to find a minimal spanning tree for the graph. The List of the edges of the tree in the order in which they are chosen is?
(1) AD, AE, AG, GC, GB, BF
(2) GC, GB, BF, GA, AD, AE
(3) GC, AD, GB, GA, BF, AE
(4) AD, AG, GC, AE, GB, BF

(1) | |
(1),(2) | |
(1),(2),(3) | |
(1),(2),(3),(4) |
Discuss it
Question 5 Explanation:
Using Kruskal's algorithm for minimal spanning tree:
First select the minimum weight edge ie 2 we have two options GC and AD
Now select Next edge of minimum weight: for GC we have to select GB or AD and so on select minimum weight keep in mind no vertex left to visit.
Here all option are matching with minimum spanning tree.
So, option (D) is correct.
Question 6 |
The Boolean function with the Karnaugh map
is:

(A+C).D+B | |
(A+B).C+D | |
(A+D).C+B | |
(A+C).B+D |
Discuss it
Question 6 Explanation:
To find the boolean function here we will use K-map
Select neighbouring Minterms as max as possible in powers of 2 ie 2 ,4,8 and so on.
Here we have selected group of minterms:
First we will take 8 minterms group which will give us B.
Now take 4 minterms group it will give us CD.
Another 4 minterms group will give us AD.
We have the expression B + CD + AD.
which can be reduced as B + D ( A + C )
So, option (A) is correct.

Question 7 |
The Octal equivalent of the binary number 1011101011 is :
7353 | |
1353 | |
5651 | |
5657 |
Discuss it
Question 7 Explanation:
First we will make pair of 3 bits from LSB :
ie- 1 011 101 011
now convert these bits into decimal and that will be
1 - 1
011 - 3
101 - 5
011 - 3
so the answer will be 1353.
So, option (B) is correct.
Question 8 |
Let P and Q be two propositions, ¬ (P ↔ Q) is equivalent to:
(I) P ↔ ¬ Q
(II) ¬ P ↔ Q
(III) ¬ P ↔ ¬ Q
(IV) Q → P
Only (I) and (II) | |
Only (II) and (III) | |
Only (III) and (IV) | |
None of the above |
Discuss it
Question 8 Explanation:
We know that ¬(P ↔ Q) = (¬P ↔ Q) = (P ↔ ¬Q) = ¬(¬P ↔ ¬Q)
Only statement (I) and (II) are correct.
So, option (A) is correct.
Question 9 |
‘ptrdata’ is a pointer to a data type. The expression *ptrdata++ is evaluated as (in C++) :
Depends on compiler | |
(*ptrdata)++ | |
*(ptrdata)++ | |
*(ptrdata++) |
Discuss it
Question 9 Explanation:
Here ++ (unary operator) have high precedence than * (unary operator). So ++ will be evaluated first then * will be in action. So A is the correct option.
So, option (A) is correct.
Question 10 |
The associativity of which of the following operators is Left to Right, in C++ ?
Unary Operator | |
Logical not | |
Array element access | |
addressof |
Discuss it
Question 10 Explanation:
Array element access has left to right associativity in C++.
So, option (C) is correct.
