A fruit seller purchased 20 kgs of apples at Rs. 8 per kg. He found 5% of the apples to be rotten. If he sells the remaining apples at Rs. 11 per kg, what his gain percentage?1. 30.625%2. 40.625%3. 50.625%4. 60.625% |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 30.625% Given: A fruit seller purchased 20 kg apples. The cost price of apples = Rs. 8 per kg Wasted apple = 5% of 20 kg The selling price of remaining apples = Rs. 11 per kg Formula used: Profit% = (profit/C.P) × 100 where C.P = cost price Calculation: C.P of 20 kg of apples = 8 × 20 ⇒ 160 As 5% of apples were rotten, so good apples = [20 - 5% of 20] kg ⇒ [20 - (5/100) × 20] kg ⇒ (20 - 1) kg ⇒ 19 kg Total selling price of apples = Rs. 19 × 11 ⇒ Rs. 209 Profit = Rs. (209 - 160) ⇒ Rs. 49 Percentage profit = (49/160) × 100 ⇒ 30.625% ∴ The gain percentage of the seller is 30.625%. |

Prabhat cycled a distance of 240 kilometers at a certain speed. if he cycled 3km faster, he would have taken 4 hours fewer to reach the distance. what was the speed in km/h at which Prabhat actually cycled?1. 12 km/hr2. 10 km/hr3. 8 km/hr4. 14 km/hr |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 12 km/hr Given : Distance = 240 km Formula Used: Time = Distance ÷ Speed Calculations: Let the speed be x km/h If he cycled 3km faster every hour, the speed will be (x + 3) km/h Time needed when the speed is x km/h = 240/x hour Time needed when the speed is (x + 3) km/h = 240/(x + 3) hour According to Question, The difference in time taken is 4 hours 240/x - 240/(x + 3) = 4 ⇒ 240(x + 3) - 240x = 4x(x + 3) ⇒ 240x + 720 - 240x = 4x² + 12x ⇒ 4x² + 12x - 720 = 0 ⇒ x² + 3x - 180 = 0 ⇒ (x - 12)(x + 15) = 0 ⇒ x = 12 or x = -15 (rejected, since speed cannot be negative) ⇒ Speed = x = 12 km/h ∴ Prabhat is cycling at 12 km/h |

Concerning detection of micro bubbles and their applications: a. The main use for micro bubbles is to enhance Doppler ultrasound imaging b. As micro bubbles are quickly destroyed by insonation, they can only be imaged intermittently c. Stimulated acoustic emission (SAE) utilizes high-energy Doppler pulses d. Characterization of liver lesions with micro bubbles is usually based on their enhancement pattern e. Micro bubbles can be used for targeted drug delivery |
|
Answer» a. False. Due to their high degree of echogenicity, micro bubbles indeed enhance the Doppler signal (‘Doppler rescue’), which was the original application of these agents, and sometimes continues to be used in transcranial imaging. However, the main application is currently in contrast-specific imaging techniques utilizing non-linear resonance and production of harmonic frequencies. b. False. Real-time imaging with a low mechanical index (MI) is possible. c. True. SAE is the appearance of a random colour pattern when micro bubbles burst after insonation with high-energy Doppler pulses. According to the guidelines of the European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology, high MI techniques are not routinely recommended due to a difficult examination technique and the superiority of real-time, low MI imaging. d. True. Scanning with a low MI allows characterization of the lesion enhancement and washout in the arterial and portal phases in real time, and has almost completely superseded high MI techniques (SAE). e. True. They can be laden with drugs and caused to burst by insonation at a specific target site. |

Train A, with a length of 300 meters, is going in the south direction at a speed of 45 kilometers per hour. Train B, with a length of 240 meters, is going in the same direction at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour, 120 meters behind the rear end of train A. How long will Train B take to cross a person sitting exactly in the middle of Train A?1. 110 second2. 122.4 second3. 120.3 second4. 100.5 second |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 122.4 second Given: For Train A, Length = 300 meters Speed = 45 kilometers per hour. For train B, Length = 240 meters Speed = 60 kilometers per hour. Train B is 120 meters behind Train A. Formula Used: meter/second = (5/18) kilometer/hour Relative speed: When running in the same direction, Speed = (x – y) where x is the speed of the second train. y is the speed of the first train. Speed = Distance/Time Time = Distance/Speed Calculation: Man is sitting exactly in the middle of train A Distance that needs to be covered by B is, ⇒ Length of Train B + Distance between 2 trains + Distance of a sitting man ⇒ 240 + 120 + 150 ⇒ 510 meters Relative speed: ⇒ (60 – 45) ⇒ 15 km/hr. As the distance is in meters and Time in seconds We need to convert km/hr into m/sec ⇒ 5/18 × 15 ⇒ 25/6 meter/second Time = Distance/Speed ⇒ Time = 510/(25/6) ⇒ Time = (510 × 6)/25 ⇒ Time = 122.4 second ∴ Time taken by Train B to cross a man is 122.4 seconds. |

Regarding relaxation times and the signal of different tissues: a. Cortical bone has long T1 and T2 relaxation times b. Water is hyperintense on both T1- and T2-weighted sequences c. Grey matter has a lower signal than white matter on T1 sequences d. Melanoma metastases are usually of low T2 signal e. Hyperacute intracerebral haemorrhage is bright on both T1 and T2 images |
|
Answer» a. False. Cortical bone is essentially a solid, despite a water content of 10–15%. It has an extremely short T2 of <1 ms; therefore, it appears black on conventional T1- and T2-weighted sequences. b. False. Water has a long T1 and T2; therefore, it appears hypointense on T1 and hyperintense on T2 sequences. This makes T2 sequences sensitive for pathology, as most pathological processes (e.g. oedema, tumour, infarction) are associated with increased tissue water content. c. True. Grey matter has slightly longer T1 and T2 relaxation times than white matter, and so is darker on T1 and brighter on T2 sequences. The way to remember this is that grey matter is ‘grey’ on the sequence that better shows anatomy (T1-weighted). d. True. There are only a few causes of a low T2 signal; these include melanin, calcification, fibrous tissue, high protein content and flow void. e. False. The appearance of haemorrhage on T1- and T2-weighted imaging changes with time due to the temporal degradation of blood products according to the table on p. 135. Hyperacute blood is isointense or dark on T1 and bright on T2 sequence. |

The price of 1 kg apple in Srinagar is reduced by Rs. 0.6 per Kg which allows a man to purchase 1.5 Kg more apple for Rs. 55. Find the original price of apple per Kg? 1. Rs. 112. Rs. 53. Rs. 64. Rs. 4 |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : Rs. 5 Given: Decrease in price = Rs. 0.6/Kg Final purchase - Initial purchase = 1.5 Kg Total amount of apples bought = Rs. 55 Concept: Number of Kg apple bought = (Total money)/(price of 1 kg apple) Calculation: Let, the initial price of apple = Rs. a/Kg Price after reduction = Rs.(a - 0.6)/Kg [55/(a - 0.6)] - (55/a) = 1.5 ⇒ (55a - 55a + 33)/(a2 - 0.6a) = 1.5 ⇒ 33 = 1.5a2 - 0.9a ⇒ 22 = a2 - 0.6a By Values putting from the option; We get a = 5 ∴ The original price of apple per Kg is Rs. 5.

Concerning image contrast in spin–echo imaging: a. The best contrast between tissues with different T1s is obtained with short repetition times (TRs) and short echo times (TEs) b. T2 weighting is obtained with short TEs and long TRs c. An image obtained with a TE of 15 ms and a TR of 2000 ms would be proton density (PD) weighted d. Fat appears with a high signal on T1-, T2- and PD-weighted sequences e. The fat signal is partially suppressed on fast (turbo) spin–echo imaging |
|
Answer» a. True. T1 weighting is obtained with a short TR, usually between 300 and 800 ms (close to the T1s of the tissues being imaged). With increasing TR, the longitudinal magnetization in all tissues would recover more, diminishing the T1 contrast. Short TEs are used to reduce the effect of T2 relaxation on contrast (see below). b. False. Relatively long TEs (90–140 ms, close to the T2s of the tissues being imaged) are used so measurable differences in the degree of transverse magnetization can develop. With short TEs, these differences are small; therefore, short TEs reduce the effect of T2 weighing. Long TRs are used to allow near-full recovery of longitudinal magnetization and eliminate differences in contrast due to T1. c. True. As described above, a short TE and long TR reduce the effect of T2 and T1, respectively. The remaining contrast is only dependent on the density of hydrogen nuclei (PD weighted). d. True. Due to a short T1 and a higher PD in comparison with most tissues, fat is bright on these sequences. In T2-weighted images, fat is less bright than water, but still brighter than most other tissues. e. False. On fast spin–echo images, fat appears hyperintense. This results from the multiple refocusing pulses, which suppress a phenomenon known as J-coupling (an interaction between different nuclei within the fat molecules), resulting in fat having a longer T2 and therefore appearing brighter. |

Concerning intensifying screens: a. They typically measure 1 cm in thickness b. They are usually made of calcium tung state phosphorc. They convert the pattern of X-ray intensities into one of light, which is detected by the film d. Films and screens should be matched e. A phosphor with a K-edge value similar to the mean photon energy should be selected |
|
Answer» a. False. The thickness is much less, usually 1–2 mm. b. False. They are usually made of the rare earth metals such as gadolinium oxysulphide or lanthanum oxy bromide. c. True. To produce an image on film without a screen would require high levels of radiation due to its relative insensitivity. Screens are used to reduce the dose required to produce an adequate image. d. True. The colour of the emitted light will vary depending on the phosphor used within the screen. The film should therefore be sensitive to the emitted light to ensure that the image is obtained. For example, gadolinium oxysulphide emits green light, whereas lanthanum oxy bromide emits blue light. e. True. This ensures that there is increased attenuation of the radiation spectrum, whose intensity may then be converted into one of light and thus represented as an image on the radio graphic film. |

A shopkeeper allows an discount on cashless payments. The marked price of an article is Rs.5000. He sold two article one with discount and other with without discount. The difference between the selling price of an article is Rs.500. Find the cost price of an article if total profit percentage he had is 18.75%.1. Rs.55002. Rs.45003. Rs.48004. Rs.40005. Rs.3500 |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : Rs.4000 Given: Let discount offered be a%. ⇒ selling price of an article after discount = 5000 × (100 - a)/100 = Rs.(5000 - 50a) ⇒ 5000 - 5000 + 50a = 500 ⇒ a = 10% Total selling price of an article = 5000 + 5000 × 90/100 = Rs.9500 Let cost price of an article be Rs.m. ⇒ 18.75 = (9500 - 2m)/2m × 100 ⇒ m = 4000 ∴ The cost price of an article is Rs.4000. |

Concerning quality assurance in film-screen radiography: a. The testing of filtration within the system is not routinely performed b. Total filtration should be equivalent to at least 1.5 mm of aluminium c. Assessment of optical density is the main measure of correct automatic exposure control (AEC) functioning d. Focal spot size may be estimated using the pinhole method e. A lower-than-expected output dose measurement is unrelated to exposure time |
|
Answer» a. False. The amount of filtration is most important when the diagnostic information depends on fine contrast being demonstrated between the tissues being imaged (e.g. in mammography). This contrast may be lost if there is beam hardening if filtration is too great. b. False. It should be equivalent to 2.5 mm of aluminium. c. True. The AEC functions by terminating the exposure once a film has a received dose sufficient to produce an adequate film. Therefore, the optical density of test films can be monitored as the level at which the AEC is set and then varied while monitoring the dose. Test subject thickness (usually Perspex) may also be altered at the same time. d. True. This technique produces a magnified image of the focal spot. The focal spot size can then be calculated by determining the magnification by knowing the focus-to-film and pinhole-to-film distances. e. False. Along with changing the tube potential and tube current, a shorter exposure time may also reduce the output. |

Concerning quality assurance in film-screen radiography: a. It is insufficient to test only the film speed and contrast index b. A gradual change in the speed of the film is more likely to be related to problems during the processing of film than to problems with the film batch c. Screens should be changed routinely at yearly intervalsd. The tube potential may be tested by assessing the kV of the X-ray beam e. X-ray output should increase with increasing kV |
|
Answer» a. True. The base plus fog level and maximum density (Dmax) also need to be tested. These may be affected by long-term storage of the film at incorrect temperatures. b. True. c. False. There is no set time as to when they need to be changed. When the sensitivity of a screen has reduced by 20%, then generally it should be changed. This may be tested by producing test films at set kV and mAs values and comparing the optical density produced. d. True. Although the tube potential is not usually measured directly, an electronic meter may be used to demonstrate the kV and its variation with the exposure time using an oscilloscope. e. True. |
