Read the following passage carefully and answer questions from 11 to 15 :
If India has to develop her internal strengths, the nation has to focus on the technological imperatives, keeping in mind three dynamic dimensions : the people, the overall economy and the strategic interests. These technological imperatives also take into account a ‘fourth’ dimension, time, an offshoot of modern day dynamism in business, trade, and technology that leads to continually shifting targets. We believe that technological strengths are especially crucial in dealing with this fourth dimension underlying continuous change in the aspirations of the people, the economy in the global context, and the strategic interests. The progress of technology lies at the heart of human history. Technological strengths are the key to creating more productive employment in an increasingly competitive market place and to continually upgrade human skills. Without a pervasive use of technologies, we cannot achieve overall development of our people in the years to come. The direct linkages of technology to the nation’s strategic strengths are becoming more and more clear, especially since 1990s. India’s own strength in a number of core areas still puts it in a position of reasonable strength in geo-political context. Any nation aspiring to become a developed one needs to have strengths in various strategic technologies and also the ability to continually upgrade them through its own creative strengths. For people-oriented actions as well, whether for the creation of large scale productive employment or for ensuring nutritional and health security for people, or for better living conditions, technology is the only vital input. The absence of greater technological impetus could lead to lower productivity and wastage of precious natural resources. Activities with low productivity or low value addition, in the final analysis hurt the poorest most. The technological imperatives to lift our people to a new life, and to a life they are entitled to is important. India, aspiring to become a major economic power in terms of trade and increase in GDP, cannot succeed on the strength of turnkey projects designed and built abroad or only through large-scale imports of plant machinery, equipment and know how. Even while being alive to the short-term realities, medium and long-term strategies to develop core technological strengths within our industry are vital for envisioning a developed India.

31. The Percentage increase in the consumption of rice over the previous year was the highest in which year?
Answer: 2
2013 (35.2 * 100 )/ 36.25 - 100 ==> -2.90
2014 (38.7 * 100 )/ 35.2 - 100 ==> +9.94
2015 (40.5 * 100 )/ 38.7 - 100 ==> +4.65
2016 (42 * 100 )/ 40.5 - 100 ==> +4.86
2013 (35.2 * 100 )/ 36.25 - 100 ==> -2.90
2014 (38.7 * 100 )/ 35.2 - 100 ==> +9.94
2015 (40.5 * 100 )/ 38.7 - 100 ==> +4.65
2016 (42 * 100 )/ 40.5 - 100 ==> +4.86
32. What is the population of the country in the year 2014 (in million)?
Answer: 3
Year 2014 Population (million)
= Consumption (million kg)/ Per Capita Consumption (in kg)
= (Production - Exports)/ Per Capita Consumption (in kg)
= 238-130 / 38.7 = 2.79
Year 2014 Population (million)
= Consumption (million kg)/ Per Capita Consumption (in kg)
= (Production - Exports)/ Per Capita Consumption (in kg)
= 238-130 / 38.7 = 2.79
33. The ratio of exports to consumption in the given period was the highest in the year:
Answer: 1
consumption (in million kg )
= Production - Exports Export / consumption
2012: 114/(186.5-114) => 1.58
2013: 114/(202-114) => 1.29
2014: 130/(238-130) =>1.20
2015: 116/(221-116) =>1.10
2016: 88/(215-88) => 0.69
consumption (in million kg )
= Production - Exports Export / consumption
2012: 114/(186.5-114) => 1.58
2013: 114/(202-114) => 1.29
2014: 130/(238-130) =>1.20
2015: 116/(221-116) =>1.10
2016: 88/(215-88) => 0.69
34. In which year, the population of country was the highest?
Answer: 4
Population (million)= (Production - Exports)/ Per Capita Consumption (in kg)
2012: => (186.5-114)/36.25 = 2
2013: => (202-114)/35.2 = 2.5
2014: => (238-130)/38.7 = 2.79
2015: => (221-116)/40.5 = 2.59
2016: => (215-88)/42 = 3.02
Population (million)= (Production - Exports)/ Per Capita Consumption (in kg)
2012: => (186.5-114)/36.25 = 2
2013: => (202-114)/35.2 = 2.5
2014: => (238-130)/38.7 = 2.79
2015: => (221-116)/40.5 = 2.59
2016: => (215-88)/42 = 3.02
35. What is the average consumption of rice (in million kg) over the years 2012 - 2016?
Answer: 4
Average consumption = (total Production - total Exports) / 5
= (1062.6 - 562) / 5
= 100.1
Average consumption = (total Production - total Exports) / 5
= (1062.6 - 562) / 5
= 100.1

R: Secondary Memory is ‘volatile’ memory.
P: Read Only Memory (ROM) is ‘volatile’ memory.
Q: Random Access Memory (RAM) is ‘volatile’ memory.
R: Secondary Memory is ‘volatile’ memory.
Answer: 2
RAM is primary memory, which is much faster than any other memory type. RAM is volatile memory as its data gets wiped out when computer is shut off. Whereas non-volatile memory is memory which do not require any power to get retained e.g. Hard disk or memory card.
