Let the two horse drawn wagons start from the same farm S. Wagon X (red) travels South 4.5 km to W and then turns right and travels 7.5 km towards west. In the mean while wagon Y (black) travels 9 km North, then 3.5 km West to reach U, then 2 km North , finally it turns left and travels 4 km westwards to stop at point Y.
=> XY = $$4.5+9+2=15.5$$ km $$ herefore$$ Wagon Y is 15.5 km north with respect to wagon X. => Ans - (B)

MCQ-> Study the following information to answer the given questions. Eight friends—P, Q R, S, T, U, V and W are seated in a straight line with equal distance between each other, but not necessarily in the same order. Some of them are facing north while some are facing south. ♦ V is an immediate neighbour of the person sitting at an extreme end of the line. R sits second to the left of V. ♦ Only one person sits between R and T. ♦ As many people sits to the right of T as to the left of P. V and P face the same direction (i.e., if V faces north then P also faces north and viceversa.) ♦ Immediate neighbours of P face opposite directions (i.e., if one neighbour faces north then the other faces south and viceversa.) ♦ Q sits fourth to the left of S. Q is not an immediate neighbour of V. ♦ Persons sitting at the extreme ends face opposite directions (i.e., if one person faces north then the other person faces south and viceversa.) ♦ W faces south.

MCQ-> The passage below is accompanied by a set of six questions. Choose the best answer to each question.Understanding where you are in the world is a basic survival skill, which is why we, like most species come hard-wired with specialised brain areas to create cognitive maps of our surroundings. Where humans are unique, though, with the possible exception of honeybees, is that we try to communicate this understanding of the world with others. We have a long history of doing this by drawing maps — the earliest versions yet discovered were scrawled on cave walls 14,000 years ago. Human cultures have been drawing them on stone tablets, papyrus, paper and now computer screens ever since.Given such a long history of human map-making, it is perhaps surprising that it is only within the last few hundred years that north has been consistently considered to be at the top. In fact, for much of human history, north almost never appeared at the top, according to Jerry Brotton, a map historian... "North was rarely put at the top for the simple fact that north is where darkness comes from," he says. "West is also very unlikely to be put at the top because west is where the sun disappears."Confusingly, early Chinese maps seem to buck this trend. But, Brotton, says, even though they did have compasses at the time, that isn't the reason that they placed north at the top. Early Chinese compasses were actually oriented to point south, which was considered to be more desirable than deepest darkest north. But in Chinese maps, the Emperor, who lived in the north of the country was always put at the top of the map, with everyone else, his loyal subjects, looking up towards him. "In Chinese culture the Emperor looks south because it's where the winds come from, it's a good direction. North is not very good but you are in a position of subjection to the emperor, so you look up to him," says Brotton.Given that each culture has a very different idea of who, or what, they should look up to it's perhaps not surprising that there is very little consistency in which way early maps pointed. In ancient Egyptian times the top of the world was east, the position of sunrise. Early Islamic maps favoured south at the top because most of the early Muslim cultures were north of Mecca, so they imagined looking up (south) towards it. Christian maps from the same era (called Mappa Mundi) put east at the top, towards the Garden of Eden and with Jerusalem in the centre.So when did everyone get together and decide that north was the top? It's tempting to put it down to European explorers like Christopher Columbus and Ferdinand Megellan, who were navigating by the North Star. But Brotton argues that these early explorers didn't think of the world like that at all. "When Columbus describes the world it is in accordance with east being at the top, he says. "Columbus says he is going towards paradise, so his mentality is from a medieval mappa mundi." We've got to remember, adds Brotton, that at the time, "no one knows what they are doing and where they are going."Which one of the following best describes what the passage is trying to do?
