Science

  • Speed of light in vacuum is about 3 × 10^8 m/s; sound in air is about 343 m/s at 20 °C.

  • Newton's second law: F = ma; weight is W = mg with g ≈ 9.8 m/s² near Earth's surface.

  • Ohm's law: V = IR; electrical power P = VI = I²R = V²/R.

  • Water boils at 100 °C and freezes at 0 °C at 1 atm; density of water is 1 g/cm³.

  • Photosynthesis: 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + light → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂, occurring in chloroplasts.

  • pH below 7 is acidic, 7 is neutral, above 7 is basic; litmus turns red in acid, blue in base.

  • Human blood has four groups (A, B, AB, O); O-negative is the universal donor for red cells.

  • Mitochondria are the site of aerobic respiration and ATP production in eukaryotic cells.

  • Newton's third law: every action has an equal and opposite reaction on a different body.

Mathematics

  • Area formulas: rectangle lb, triangle ½bh, circle πr², trapezium ½(a+b)h.

  • Volume: cuboid lbh, cylinder πr²h, sphere (4/3)πr³, cone (1/3)πr²h.

  • Pythagoras: in a right triangle, a² + b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse.

  • Simple interest = PRT/100; compound amount A = P(1 + R/100)^T.

  • Average = sum of values ÷ number of values; speed = distance ÷ time.

  • Sum of first n natural numbers = n(n+1)/2; sum of first n odd numbers = n².

  • Quadratic formula: x = [−b ± √(b² − 4ac)] / 2a for ax² + bx + c = 0.

  • Percentage change = (new − old)/old × 100; successive discounts a% then b% give net 1 − (1−a/100)(1−b/100).

  • LCM × HCF of two positive integers equals their product.

General Knowledge

  • The Indian Navy was founded as the East India Company's Marine in 1612; Navy Day is 4 December.

  • INS Vikrant is India's first indigenously built aircraft carrier; INS Arihant is a nuclear submarine.

  • The Indian Navy motto is 'Sham No Varunah', meaning may the Lord of Waters be auspicious to us.

  • India's highest peacetime gallantry award is the Param Vir Chakra; the Ashoka Chakra is for peacetime gallantry.

  • The Tropic of Cancer passes through eight Indian states, including Gujarat, Rajasthan and West Bengal.

  • The Constitution of India came into force on 26 January 1950; Dr B. R. Ambedkar chaired the drafting committee.

  • The Ganga is India's longest river within the country; the Brahmaputra is known as the Tsangpo in Tibet.

  • ISRO's Chandrayaan-3 landed near the lunar south pole in August 2023.

Reasoning

  • Odd-one-out: test each option against a common property (prime, square, cube, divisibility) and reject the exception.

  • Number series: check differences first, then ratios, then alternating or squared patterns.

  • Alphabet position: A=1 … Z=26; reverse position = 27 − forward position.

  • Coding-decoding: compare letter shifts between word and code; a constant shift indicates Caesar-type coding.

  • Direction sense: draw axes; north is +y, east is +x; a left turn from north faces west.

  • Blood relations: map each statement to a family tree before answering the relationship question.

  • Syllogism: a conclusion follows only if true in every possible Venn diagram of the premises.

  • Clock angle: |30H − 5.5M| gives the angle between hands at H hours and M minutes.

  • Analogy: identify the relation type (part-whole, cause-effect, synonym) before selecting the matching pair.
