unseen in the second bag. What is the probability that a ball now drawn from
second bag is black?
- Let an denote the number of bit strings of length n that do not have
two consecutive zeroes. Find a recurrence relation for the number of bit
strings of length n that do not have two consecutive zeroes. Hence find a4.

Structural Engineering
- A short CI column of hollow circular section has projecting bracket carrying a load of 10 tonnes. The load line is off the column by 20cm. The external diameter of the column is 350mm and thickness of metal is 25 mm. Find the maximum stress intensity in the section.
- A rectangular beam section of 300 mm width and 500 mm effective depth is reinforced with 4 bars of 20 mm diameter, what shear reinforcement is required to resist 200 KN shear (use working stress method).
- A bar of steel 24 mm in diameter was subjected to a tensile load of 60 kNs and measured extension on a 20-cm gauge length was 0.009 cm and the change in diameter was 0.00375 cm. Calculate the Bulk modulus?
- What is the allowable load carrying capacity of a circular column section of 400 mm diameter reinforced with 6x25 mm diameter bars adequately tied with spirals? Consider concrete of grade M25 and steel of grade Fe 415.
Computational Linguistics
Section - A
1. In each group of words given below, show which words (if any) share a common suffix.
A |
B |
tables |
colder |
calculates |
writer |
lens |
silver |
forests |
rider |
2) Look at the following sentence
The President addressed the nation on the eve of the Independence Day.
Any sentence can be split into smaller units (let us call them blocks). For example the above sentence can be split into following major blocks.
[The President] [addressed] [the nation] [on the eve] [of the Independence Day]
Split the following sentences in a similar way :
- The boy wearing the blue cap is my brother.
- I met a student of philosophy in the train.
- Lucknow is as hot as Kanpur.
- Meena was reading a book and Rekha was watching Television.
- As it was raining the children played inside the house.
3) Give the missing number in the following sequences :
- 1, 4, 9, 16, ---, 36
- 2, 4, 7, 12, 21, ---
- 6, 9, 14,---, 30, 41
- 6, 24, ---, 96, 150, 216
