A, B and C enter into a partnership. B contributes\(\frac{1}{3}\)rd of the capital, while A contributes as much as B and C together contribute. The ratio of their capitals is:(a) 1:2:3(b) 3:2:1(c) 3:1:1(d) 2:1:1

Answer»

Correct answer is: (b) 3:2:1

Let total capital be = x &

let C’s contribution = y,

B’s contribution = x/3 , A’s Contribution = x/3 + y.

Now (A+B+C)’s contribution = x

⇒ x = 6y

hence this contribution are 2y + y: 2y:y i.e., in the ratio 3:2:1

Answer»

Correct answer is: (b) 9:7:6

Time ratio = 2 : 3 : 4 

Profit sharing ratio = 6: 7: 8

Investment ratio = \(\cfrac{6}{2}\):\(\cfrac{7}{3}\):\(\cfrac{8}{4}\) (Profit /Time)

= 9 : 7 : 6

Free 238U nuclei kept in a train emit alpha particles. When the train is stationary and a uranium nucleus decays, a passenger measures that the separation between the alpha particle and the recoiling nucleus becomes x in time t after the decay. If a decay takes place when the train is moving at a uniform speed v, the distance between the alpha particle and the recoiling nucleus at a time t after the decay, as measured by the passenger will be (a) x + vt (b) x - vt (c) x (d) depends on the direction of the train.

Answer»

(c) x.

Explanation:

In both of the cases the frame of reference is inertial so with reference to the frame of train the separation too will be equal.
