He lent this sum to Mahesh at the same rate of interest compounded annually for the same period. At the end of two years, he received Rs. 4200 as compound interest but paid Rs. 4000 only as simple interest. Find the rate of interest?
Correct
Explanation –
Suppose the sum borrowed = Rs X
Rate of interest = R% Time = 2 years
4000=[X x R x 2 ]/100 [simple interesr formula] RX=200,000………….(1)
compound interest= P(1+r/n)^nt
X[1+ (R/100)]^2= X+4200
after solving and using value of RX
we get R=10%Incorrect

Question 126 of 160
126. Question
1 pointsCategory: EnglishDirections (126-135): Read the following Passage carefully and answer the questions given below. Certain words/Phrases have been given in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions.
ENVIRONMENTAL activists and concerned citizens alike have welcomed the Delhi government’s “odd-even formula” to restrict vehicular traffic on Delhi’s roads as a mechanism for reducing air pollution. The new system, which came into effect on January 1, will be in place on a trial basis for 15 days, with vehicles bearing odd numbers plying on odd dates and those with even numbers on even dates. This method, widely known as the road-space rationing method, has been used temporarily in Beijing and Paris. CNG-driven buses, taxis, auto rickshaws, two-wheelers, single-woman driven cars and emergency vehicles are exempted from this requirement. The formula will also apply to automobiles entering Delhi from other States. This move, though criticized by some citizens as one that could lead to chaos, comes against the backdrop of a number of expert reports raising concern about the alarming levels of pollution in Delhi.
The Delhi-based think tank Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) welcomed the odd-even formula. Anumita Roy Chowdhury, its executive director, said: “With traffic volumes halved, bus services can be augmented. Moreover, additional buses, pooling and sharing of two-wheelers and cars will further improve the overall carrying capacity of the available fleet. This is an opportunity in the city to create and test out the plan for augmented public transport services that can be sustained even after the program is over.”
The CSE, however, expressed disappointment at the range of exemptions given under the proposed formula, especially to two-wheelers. According to CSE estimates, two-wheelers contribute to as much as 31 per cent of the total particulate load from vehicles.
Substantive evidence
A study titled “Source Apportionment Study of PM2.5 and PM10”, conducted by Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, had given substantive evidence of pollution caused by diesel cars in Delhi.
It showed that about 70 per cent of the particulate matter came from diesel cars across Delhi. (PM2.5 is particulate matter 2.5 micrometers or less in diameter.) The IIT study offered several suggestions for cleaning the city, such as vacuum sweeping four times a month, prohibiting the use of coal, and replacing three-wheelers and four-wheelers with electric and hybrid technology vehicles.
Both the Delhi High Court and the Supreme Court have been sympathetic to the environmental cause. In fact, the Delhi High Court, in an ongoing case, has pointed out several other concerns relating to environmental pollution and governance. On December 21, a bench of Justices BadarDurrez Ahmed and Sanjeev Sachdeva of the High Court observed that the level of pollution in the national capital was of an “emergency nature”.
It also said that specific legislation and statutory rules that were in place to ensure that ambient air quality was maintained were not being followed. These enactments include the Environmental (Protection) Act, 1986, the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981, and the National Capital Regional Planning Board Act, 1985.
The High Court also came down on the Centre for not stating what steps had been taken under the National Capital Region Planning Board Act, 1985, in dealing with pollution-related issues in the NCR. The court also asked the Centre to spell out an action plan to deal with environmental degradation as a result of construction activities in the region.
The court noted that the Government of the National Capital Territory of Delhi and the Delhi Pollution Control Committee were entrusted with the task of ensuring that environmental laws with respect to pollution were followed.
But the inordinate levels of pollution indicated that this had not worked in practice, it said. For instance, the permissible norm for PM10 is 100 micrograms per cubic meter and 60 micrograms for PM2.5.
But the monitoring stations of the Delhi Pollution Control Committee showed that the readings were far in excess of 400-500 micrograms per cubic meter in both cases.
The court also instructed the State government and the municipal corporations of Delhi to publicize through radio, television and print media that burning of leaves, garbage, plastic and rubber in the open was prohibited.
According to the author, which of the following are true w.r.t Odd- Even Formula?
A. The new system, which came into effect on January 1, will be in place on a trial basis for 15 days. Vehicles bearing odd numbers will ply on odd dates and those with even numbers on even dates.
B. Buses, taxis, auto rickshaws, two-wheelers, single-woman driven cars and emergency vehicles are exempted from this requirement.
C. Vehicles entering Delhi from outside states are exempted from this requirement due to severe criticism from some citizens.
D. This method, widely known as the road-space rationing method, has been used temporarily in Beijing and Paris.
E. Citizens of Delhi and Environmental activists are biased towards the Delhi government’s new Odd – Even system as this will lead to chaos and difficult for citizens Transport.Correct

But the inordinate levels of pollution indicated that this had not worked in practice, it said. For instance, the permissible norm for PM10 is 100 micrograms per cubic meter and 60 micrograms for PM2.5.
But the monitoring stations of the Delhi Pollution Control Committee showed that the readings were far in excess of 400-500 micrograms per cubic meter in both cases.
The court also instructed the State government and the municipal corporations of Delhi to publicize through radio, television and print media that burning of leaves, garbage, plastic and rubber in the open was prohibited.
What are the Observations and recommendations of CSE on implementation of Odd- Even Formula?
A. CSE welcomed the odd-even formula and Anumita Roy Chowdhury, its executive director, said: “With reduction in traffic volumes, bus services can be gradually mitigated.
B. The CSE, however, expressed disappointment at the range of exemptions given under the proposed formula, especially to two-wheelers and four wheelers from other states.
C. With reduction in Traffic volumes, increase in number of Public transport Buses, pooling and sharing of two-wheelers and cars will further improve the overall carrying capacity of the available fleet.
D. According to CSE estimates, two-wheelers and Four-wheelers contribute to as much as 31 per cent of the total particulate load from vehicles.

128. Question
1 pointsCategory: EnglishDirections (126-135): Read the following Passage carefully and answer the questions given below. Certain words/Phrases have been given in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions.
ENVIRONMENTAL activists and concerned citizens alike have welcomed the Delhi government’s “odd-even formula” to restrict vehicular traffic on Delhi’s roads as a mechanism for reducing air pollution. The new system, which came into effect on January 1, will be in place on a trial basis for 15 days, with vehicles bearing odd numbers plying on odd dates and those with even numbers on even dates. This method, widely known as the road-space rationing method, has been used temporarily in Beijing and Paris. CNG-driven buses, taxis, auto rickshaws, two-wheelers, single-woman driven cars and emergency vehicles are exempted from this requirement. The formula will also apply to automobiles entering Delhi from other States. This move, though criticized by some citizens as one that could lead to chaos, comes against the backdrop of a number of expert reports raising concern about the alarming levels of pollution in Delhi.
The Delhi-based think tank Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) welcomed the odd-even formula. Anumita Roy Chowdhury, its executive director, said: “With traffic volumes halved, bus services can be augmented. Moreover, additional buses, pooling and sharing of two-wheelers and cars will further improve the overall carrying capacity of the available fleet. This is an opportunity in the city to create and test out the plan for augmented public transport services that can be sustained even after the program is over.”
The CSE, however, expressed disappointment at the range of exemptions given under the proposed formula, especially to two-wheelers. According to CSE estimates, two-wheelers contribute to as much as 31 per cent of the total particulate load from vehicles.
Substantive evidence
A study titled “Source Apportionment Study of PM2.5 and PM10”, conducted by Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, had given substantive evidence of pollution caused by diesel cars in Delhi.
It showed that about 70 per cent of the particulate matter came from diesel cars across Delhi. (PM2.5 is particulate matter 2.5 micrometers or less in diameter.) The IIT study offered several suggestions for cleaning the city, such as vacuum sweeping four times a month, prohibiting the use of coal, and replacing three-wheelers and four-wheelers with electric and hybrid technology vehicles.
Both the Delhi High Court and the Supreme Court have been sympathetic to the environmental cause. In fact, the Delhi High Court, in an ongoing case, has pointed out several other concerns relating to environmental pollution and governance. On December 21, a bench of Justices BadarDurrez Ahmed and Sanjeev Sachdeva of the High Court observed that the level of pollution in the national capital was of an “emergency nature”.
It also said that specific legislation and statutory rules that were in place to ensure that ambient air quality was maintained were not being followed. These enactments include the Environmental (Protection) Act, 1986, the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981, and the National Capital Regional Planning Board Act, 1985.
The High Court also came down on the Centre for not stating what steps had been taken under the National Capital Region Planning Board Act, 1985, in dealing with pollution-related issues in the NCR. The court also asked the Centre to spell out an action plan to deal with environmental degradation as a result of construction activities in the region.

This is an opportunity in the city to create and test out the plan for augmented public transport services that can be sustained even after the program is over.”
The CSE, however, expressed disappointment at the range of exemptions given under the proposed formula, especially to two-wheelers. According to CSE estimates, two-wheelers contribute to as much as 31 per cent of the total particulate load from vehicles.
Substantive evidence
A study titled “Source Apportionment Study of PM2.5 and PM10”, conducted by Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, had given substantive evidence of pollution caused by diesel cars in Delhi.
It showed that about 70 per cent of the particulate matter came from diesel cars across Delhi. (PM2.5 is particulate matter 2.5 micrometers or less in diameter.) The IIT study offered several suggestions for cleaning the city, such as vacuum sweeping four times a month, prohibiting the use of coal, and replacing three-wheelers and four-wheelers with electric and hybrid technology vehicles.
Both the Delhi High Court and the Supreme Court have been sympathetic to the environmental cause. In fact, the Delhi High Court, in an ongoing case, has pointed out several other concerns relating to environmental pollution and governance. On December 21, a bench of Justices BadarDurrez Ahmed and Sanjeev Sachdeva of the High Court observed that the level of pollution in the national capital was of an “emergency nature”.
It also said that specific legislation and statutory rules that were in place to ensure that ambient air quality was maintained were not being followed. These enactments include the Environmental (Protection) Act, 1986, the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981, and the National Capital Regional Planning Board Act, 1985.
The High Court also came down on the Centre for not stating what steps had been taken under the National Capital Region Planning Board Act, 1985, in dealing with pollution-related issues in the NCR. The court also asked the Centre to spell out an action plan to deal with environmental degradation as a result of construction activities in the region.
The court noted that the Government of the National Capital Territory of Delhi and the Delhi Pollution Control Committee were entrusted with the task of ensuring that environmental laws with respect to pollution were followed.
But the inordinate levels of pollution indicated that this had not worked in practice, it said. For instance, the permissible norm for PM10 is 100 micrograms per cubic meter and 60 micrograms for PM2.5.
But the monitoring stations of the Delhi Pollution Control Committee showed that the readings were far in excess of 400-500 micrograms per cubic meter in both cases.
The court also instructed the State government and the municipal corporations of Delhi to publicize through radio, television and print media that burning of leaves, garbage, plastic and rubber in the open was prohibited.
