Subject : BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO THE WRITTEN TEST

REPRESENTATIVE QUESTIONS OF TEST PAPERA BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO THE WRITTEN TEST.The written test is an aptitude examination designed to test your general intelligence and basicunderstanding of Mathematics, Applied Sciences / Engineering and Analytical/logical thinking. This writtentest is like GRE Engineering. To help you in preparing for the written test, a brief outline of this test is presentedbelow. Some of the questions may require numerical calculations,so you must bring your own calculator.IT MAY BE NOTED THAT WRITING TABLES MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE DURING THE WRITTEN TEST. THEREFORE,ALL CANDIDATES ARE ADVISED TO BRING THEIR OWN WRITING CLIP BOARDS FOR THEIR CONVENIENCEDURING THE WRITTEN TEST.The instructions sheet that will accompany the actual written test is attached. Read these instructionscarefully now to save time during the examination. In order to give you an idea of the nature of the writtentest, some representative questions are also enclosed.WRITTEN TEST OUTLINE.The question paper is divided into two parts i.e. Part (A) and (B). There will be 50 questions in Part (A) and 50Questions in Part (B). Part (A) is the general part to be attempted by all the candidates whereas Part (B) isthesubject part having subject papers.

Richter in 1935to measure theamplitude of the largest trace recorded by a standard seismograph one hundredkilometers from the epicenter of an earthquake. Tables have been formulated to demonstrate themagnitude of any earthquake from any seismograph. For example, for a one-unit increase in magnitude,there is an increase of times thirty in released energy. The Richter scale considers earthquake of 6.75 as greatand 7.0 to 7.75 as major. An earthquake that reads 4 to 5.5 would be expected to cause localized damage,and those of magnitude 2 may be felt. It is estimated that almost one million earthquakes occur each year,but most of them are so minor that they pass unnoticed.Q.1What does this passage mainly discuss?(A) Charles F. Richter (B) Seismography (C) Earthquakes (D) The Richter scaleQ.2According to the information in the passage, what does Richter scale record?(A) History(B) Biography (C) Geology(D) MathematicsQ.3According to the Richter scale, which of the following numbers would indicate that there hadprobably been damage to the immediate area only?(A) The distance from the epicenter(C) The degree of damage(B)The amplitude of the largest trace(D) The location of the epicenterAnd so onQ.1.Page 6 of 11
