Q: A man inside a moving train tosses a coin, the coin falls behind him. The train is moving:

A: forward with a uniform speed

B: backward with a uniform speed

C: forward with deceleration

D: forward with acceleration



Correct Option: D  [ forward with acceleration ]

Remark:

Explanation: When a man inside a moving train tosses a coin and it falls behind him, it means the train is moving forward with acceleration. The coin, after being tossed, continues to move with the train’s initial velocity, but since the train speeds up, the coin appears to fall backward relative to the man.


Q: Which one of the following solutions will not turn blue litmus to red litmus?

A: Lemon juice

B: Error detection

C: Controlling

D: Indexing



Correct Option: B  [ Error detection ]

Remark:

Explanation: A parity bit is added to binary data in a computer system for error detection. It helps identify whether data has been altered during transmission or storage. The parity bit makes the total number of 1s either even (even parity) or odd (odd parity), allowing simple error checking.


Q: Chemical name of 'Baking powder' is :

A: Ammonium Chloride

B: Magnesium Phosphate

C: Sodium bi-carbonate

D: Ammonium bi-phosphate



Correct Option: C  [ Sodium bi-carbonate ]

Remark:

Explanation: The chemical name of baking powder is sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO₃), also known as baking soda. It is a mild alkali used in cooking and baking as a leavening agent. When heated or mixed with an acid (like vinegar, lemon juice, or cream of tartar), it decomposes to release carbon dioxide gas (CO₂). The bubbles of CO₂ make the dough rise and become soft and spongy. In commercial baking powder, sodium bicarbonate is often mixed with a weak acid and a drying agent.
