Question

Match the items in Group–I with their corresponding items in Group–II.
Group-IGroup-II
(P)Floating floor(1)Overflow control
(Q)Float valve(2)Delay not affecting a project
(R)Metal float(3)Acoustical buffer
(S)Free float(4)Plastering equipment
(5)Traffic flow control

The correct answer is
P-3, Q – 1, R – 4, S – 2

Matching Group I with Group II Items

The question requires matching items from Group I (P, Q, R, S) with their corresponding descriptions in Group II (1, 2, 3, 4, 5).

Item Analysis and Matching:

  • (P) Floating floor: This type of flooring is constructed to provide an acoustical buffer, reducing sound transmission. Therefore, P matches with 3.
  • (Q) Float valve: Commonly used in plumbing systems (like toilet tanks or water heaters), a float valve regulates fluid levels and prevents overflow. Therefore, Q matches with 1.
  • (R) Metal float: In construction, a metal float is a hand tool used for smoothing and finishing surfaces like plaster or concrete during plastering. Therefore, R matches with 4.
  • (S) Free float: In project management, free float is the duration an activity can be delayed without causing a delay to the start of its immediate successor activity, meaning the delay does not affect the project timeline beyond that specific activity. Therefore, S matches with 2.

Final Matches Summary

Based on the analysis, the correct matches are:

  • P corresponds to 3 (Acoustical buffer)
  • Q corresponds to 1 (Overflow control)
  • R corresponds to 4 (Plastering equipment)
  • S corresponds to 2 (Delay not affecting a project)

This corresponds to the pairing P-3, Q-1, R-4, S-2.
