42. When a name is encountered during the execution of the program, it searches for that name in the following order.

(1) local global, built-in, enclosing functions
(2) global, local, enclosing functions, built-in
(3) built-in, enclosing functions, local, global
(4) local, enclosing functions, global, built-in

Correct Answer: (4) local, enclosing functions, global, built-in

L. Local It first makes a local search i.e. in current def statement;
E. Enclosing functions - It searches in all enclosing functions, form inner to outer;
G. Global (module) -It searches for global modules or for names declared global;
B. Built-in (Python) - Finally it checks for any built in functions in Python.

43. Chile saltpetre is

(1) NaNO₃
(2) ΚΝΟ₃
(3) LINO₃
(4) Ca(NO₃)₂

Correct Answer: (1) NaNO₃

Solution:Sodium nitrate, a chemical compound with the formula NaNO₃, is also known as Chile saltpetre. It is so named because large deposits of this salt can be found in Chile to distinguish it from ordinary saltpeter, potassium nitrate. The mineral form is also known as nitratine, nitratite or soda niter.

44. Values of k for the equation kx(x-2)+6=0 so that it has two equal roots are

(1) 0,6
(2) 6
(3)2,3
(4) None of these

Correct Answer: (2) 6

Solution:kx(x - 2) + 6 = 0
⇒ kx² - 2kx + 6 = 0
The roots of equation ax² + bx + c = 0 will be equal if b² - 4ac = 0
∴ (-2k)² - 4k × 6 = 0
⇒ 4k² - 24k = 0
⇒ 4k (k - 6) = 0
∴ k = 0 or k = 6
but k = 0 is inadmissible.

47. Predict the output of following code.

int f = 1, i = 2;
do {
f *= i;
} while (++i < 5);
cout << f;

(1) 12
(2) 5
(3) 4
(4) 24

Correct Answer: (1) 12

Solution:The given program is as
follows :
int f = 1, i = 2
do {f* = i} while (++i < 5) in
the first step i = 2 and f = 1 +
+ i means i = i + 1 => i = 2+1
= 3
since it is less than 5 so the
loop executes, i.e.
f* = i which is a short representation of
f = f * i => f = 1 * 3 = 3
again,
i = i + 1
=> i = 3 + 1 = 4
since it is also less than 5
hence the loop executes
again, i.e
f = f * i
=> f = 3 * 4 = 12
Now in the next increment,
i = 4 +1 = 5
which is not less than 5 , so
the loop will not execute any
further
Hence, the final value of f will
be 12

48. A new 2800 Megawatt nuclear power plant will be setup at this place of Haryana

(1) Rewari
(2) Gorakhpur
