Based on the English alphabetical order, three of the following four letter-clusters are alike in a certain way and thus form a group. Which letter-cluster does not belong to that group? (Note: The odd one out is not based on the number of consonants/vowels or their position in the letter-cluster.)
FUT
To solve this problem, let's first determine the pattern or rule that the letter-clusters are following. We'll check each group of letters to see if they share a common characteristic based on their positions in the English alphabet.
- CEG: The position of the letters C, E, and G in the alphabet are 3, 5, and 7 respectively. Notice that they are separated by a gap of 2 between each successive letter: C (3) + 2 = E (5) + 2 = G (7).
- JLN: The positions are 10, 12, and 14. Similar to CEG, the letters have a gap of 2 between each successive letter: J (10) + 2 = L (12) + 2 = N (14).
- FUT: The positions are 6, 21, and 20. Here, the gap is not consistent. From F to U, the difference is 15, and from U to T, the difference is -1. This breaks the pattern seen in the other groups.
- TVX: The positions are 20, 22, and 24. There is a consistent gap of 2: T (20) + 2 = V (22) + 2 = X (24).
Based on this pattern analysis, the letter-cluster FUT does not belong to the group as it doesn't follow the consistent gap rule of 2 between the letter positions.
Important Questions from Resistance and Resistivity
If the length of a conductor is doubled, then the resistance of the conductor will be: (other parameters are kept same)
Which factor does NOT affect the resistivity of a material?
In a circuit, a 10-volt battery and three resistors ( R1 = 2 Ω ), ( R2 = 3 Ω), and ( R3 = 6 Ω) are connected in parallel to each other. Which of the following is the correct value of effective resistance ( Re ) and current I flowing through the circuit?
At the time of short-circuit, the current in the circuit:
A uniform wire of resistance 9Ω is bent in the form of an equilateral triangle. Find the effective resistance across a side of the triangle.
