MH SET Paper 1 Mock Test - 6 - MAHA TET MCQ

Statement I: The length and breadth of a rectangle are increased by 10% and 20% respectively, then its area increases by 23%.

• Percentage increment in the area of rectangle=l1 + l2  + (l1 x l2) /100
• Percentage increment in the area of rectangle=10 + 20  + (10x20) /100
• Therefore, percentage increment in the area of rectangle = 30+2 =32%

So statement I is incorrect.
Statement II: In 12 hours, the hour hand and the minute hand coincide 11 times.

• The hands of a clock meet once every hour but between 11:00 and 1:00'o clock, they coincide only once.
• Therefore, the hands of a clock meet 11 times in 12 hours.

Therefore, statement II is correct.
Therefore, Statement I is false but Statement II is true

According to the question:

21x = 210
x = 10

Oxygen depletion is the cause of the extinction of plants and animals in water.

• Globally, oceans have lost around 2% of dissolved oxygen since the 1950s and are expected to lose about 3–4% by the year 2100 under a business-as-usual scenario, though the scale of effect is predicted to vary regionally.
• Much of the oxygen loss is concentrated in the upper 1000m where species richness and abundance is highest.
• Ocean oxygen loss driven by excessive organic matter and growth of algae and the threats it poses to ecosystem services are documented in many regions but likely under-reported in others. 

India has the second-largest Market of newspapers in the world as there are over 100,000 newspaper publications, 240 million circulations, the cherry on top; 1300 million readers. Hindi-language newspapers have by far the largest circulation, but there are publications produced in each of the 22 scheduled languages of India and in many of the other languages spoken throughout the country.

Dogs, cats and horses are of different categories. So, the following Venn diagram is the correct one.

The Association for Institutional Research (AIR), founded in 1966, is the world's largest professional organisation for institutional researchers.
As early as in 1984, University Grants Commission (UGC), New Delhi launched Country Wide Class Room (CWCR) and production facilities at 6 universities in India through establishing media centres in the name of Audio Visual Research Centres (AVRCs).
The Consortium for Educational Communication, set up in 1993, popularly known as CEC, is one of the Inter University Centres set up by the University Grants Commission.
Gyan Vani (GV) FM Radio was conceived in 2001 as a network of educational FM Radio Channels operating from various cities in the country.
Hence, the correct chronological sequence of institutions of educational communication is: A, C, B, D.

Both (A) and (R) are true, and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). Prior to the use of projectors in the classroom, teachers had to spend time writing notes on the board, as well as erasing information as the board filled up. Projectors require a simple click of a button or mouse, thus, freeing valuable class time. By using projectors, teachers can more easily prepare all the notes prior to class for easy presentation. Teachers may also find that they spend less time repeating or rewriting information that is now accessible with a simple click. Hence, projection technology facilitates extensive coverage of course contents.

Media that exist in an interconnected series of communication - points are referred to as Networked media.

• Network communication, or internetworking, defines a set of protocols (that is, rules and standards) that allow application programs to talk with each other without regard to the hardware and operating systems where they are run.
• Network media refers to the communication channels used to interconnect nodes on a computer network.
• Typical examples of network media include copper coaxial cable, copper twisted-pair cables and optical fiber cables used in wired networks, and radio waves used in wireless data communications networks.
• Network media is the actual path over which an electrical signal travels as it moves from one component to another. This chapter describes the common types of network media, including twisted-pair cable, coaxial cable, fiber-optic cable, and wireless.

So, the correct match is A ‐ lll, B ‐ l, C ‐ ll, D ‐ lV.

Information Communication Technologies refers to all communication technologies like wireless networks, software, middleware, cell phone, internet, social networking and other media applications. It provides access to information through telecommunication. It provides subject materials to teacher and student, It provides materials of all languages. It is also used in telephone networks with computer networks through a single cabling and link system.

'Asynchronous' means 'not existing or occurring at the same time'. Newspaper is asynchronous because it is printed first and later read.

Sound is permanent because it is product like a Jar. This is Contradictory Reason because sound and Jar are unlike entities. Also, Jar is not of Permanent Nature (self-contradictory premise). The middle term and the major term contradict each other. So, this argument is fallacy of contradictory reason.

Volcanoes are an example of natural pollution. Volcanic eruptions release large quantities of greenhouse gases and other aerosols into the atmosphere, these gases form massive clouds which accumulate in the atmosphere; this process is referred to as outgassing or offgassing.

Accoraing to the MOE, there are 52,02 colleges operating under these universitles, inclualng government degree colleges, private colleges, freestanding institutes, and post-graduate research institutions.
India have over 1000 universities by 2020 , with 54 central universities, 416 state universities, 125 deemed universities, 361 private universities, and 159 Institutes of National Importance, such as AllMS, IIMs, IIITs, |ISERs, IITs, and NITs.

A complex question is a fallacy in which the answer to a given question presupposes a prior answer to a prior question.
The question commits the fallacy of complex question as in it lies an assumed answer to a previous question, i.e. ''Do you tell lies?''.

Given:
SP1 = 87% of CP
SP2 = 122% of CP
SP2 – SP1 = Rs. 4200
Formula Used: Profit = SP – CP
%Profit = (profit/CP) × 100
SP = {(100 + P%)/100} × CP
SP = {(100 + L%)/100} × CP
Where P is profit, L is loss, CP is cost price and SP is selling price.
Calculation:
SP1 = (87/100) × CP
SP2 = (122/100) × CP
SP2 – SP1 = Rs. 4200
⇒ (122/100) × CP – (87/100) × CP = 4200
⇒ (35/100) × CP = 4200
⇒ (7/20) × CP = 4200
⇒ CP = Rs. 12000
I. 12% profit is Rs. 1440
12 % of 12000 = (12/100) × 12000
⇒ Rs. 1440
⇒ I is correct
II. To gain 44%, he should sell it for Rs  17280
144% of CP = (144/100) × 12000
⇒ 17280
⇒ II is correct
∴ Both I and II are correct.

VOIP-  VOIP is the use of internet to make phone calls
Fibre-optic cable- Makes use of light pulses to transmit data

The passage talks about and describes I.N.A. trials by the Britishers. So, option 3 is the correct answer.

After deleting all the letters, we have
* 3 9 ? 5 2 $ # 9 2 ^ @ 6 8 %
4th element from right is @.
5th element to the left of @ is $.

Binary Tree is a data structure in which a record is linked to two successor records, usually referred to as the 'left branch' when greater and the 'right branch' when less than the previous record.

Learning can be influenced by a variety of internal, external, and unknown factors. The elements that influence learning have been classified in this section under the broad topics of physiological, psychological, socio-emotional, and educational factors.

Therefore, (A) ‐ (II), (B) ‐ (IV), (C) ‐ (III), (D) ‐ (I) are correct matching.

When a classroom operates with student-centred instruction, students and instructors share the focus. Instead of listening to the teacher exclusively, students and teachers interact equally. Group work is encouraged, and students learn to collaborate and communicate with one another. In teacher-centred education, students put all of their focus on the teacher. The teacher talks, while the students exclusively listen. During activities, students work alone, and collaboration is discouraged.
So, classroom communication must be student-centric.

Truth and falsity are the attributes of propositions. A proposition is a sentence that is either true or false. If a proposition is true, then we can assume that its truth value is true, and if a proposition is false, we can assume its truth value is false. So, the statement can either be true or false.

UGC- CARE: The University Grants Commission (UGC) has approved a list of journals, in that the UGC has decided to establish a Consortium for Academic and Research Ethics (CARE).
The good quality Research Journals in disciplines under Social Sciences, Humanities, Languages, Arts, Culture, Indian Knowledge Systems etc., will be maintained by CARE and referred to as ‘CARE Reference List of Quality Journals’. This will be used for all academic purposes.

A postulate: It is the statement of the principle assumed, in the absence of direct evidence. It is an essential presupposition to a train of reasoning advanced before a hypothesis.
A construct: Though not directly observable, is considered to exist. It is the abstract idea, underlying theme, or subject matter that one wishes to measure using survey questions.
Variable: It is something that can change either quantitatively or qualitatively. In statistical research, a variable is defined as an attribute of an object of study.
Systematic error: It causes obtained results to vary in a particular direction. It is associated with faulty equipment or a flawed experiment design.

Statement I: One of the basic principles of the progressive view of teaching is that education should be life itself rather than a preparation for living. 
As John Dewey said famously, “Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself”. This progressive view of education has a great influence in today’s time. 

• This viewpoint advocated that the young fellows should be given the freedom to learn according to their choices. 
• It is a ‘social need and function’ of society.
• Here social and individual aspects are mutually dependent on each other. 

Hence, Statement I is correct.
Statement II: According to the reconstructionist view of education the new social order must be 'genuinely democratic'.
Social reconstructionism is a relevant theory today. This theory talks about holistic education and developing critical thinking skills in the students.

• It focuses on experiential learning.
• It is a more radical form of progressivism.
• It believed in the new social order that must be 'genuinely democratic'.

Hence, Statement II is correct.
Therefore, both Statement I and Statement II are true.

Anumana, (Sanskrit: measuring along some other thing or inference) in Indian philosophy, is the second of the pramanas, or the five means of knowledge. Inference occupies a central place in the Hindu school of logic (Nyaya). It is a means of arriving at truth not directly but through a previous knowledge of concomitance (vyapti) between the major term (sadhya) and the middle term (sadhana).

Subsequent to the provisions of Section 96(C) of the Government of India Act, 1919 and the strong recommendations made by the Lee Commission in 1924 for the early establishment of a Public Service Commission, it was on October 1, 1926 that the Public Service Commission was set up in India for the first time.
