IMPORTANT FORMULAS : PIPES AND CISTERN

Inlet: A pipe connected with a tank or a cistern or a reservoir, that fills it, is known as an inlet. Outlet: A pipe connected with a tank or cistern or reservoir, emptying it, is known as an outlet. If a pipe can fill a tank in x hours, then: part filled in 1 hour = 1/x If a pipe can empty a tank in y hours, then: part emptied in 1 hour = 1/y If a pipe can fill a tank in x hours and another pipe can empty the full tank in y hours (where y > x), then on opening both the pipes, then the net part filled in 1 hour = (1/x - 1/y) If a pipe...

TIME AND DISTANCE : IMPORTANT FORMULAS

Speed, Time and Distance: Speed = Distance/Time Time = Distance/ speed Distance = (Speed x Time) km/hr to m/sec conversion: x km/hr = x X (5/18) m/sec. m/sec to km/hr conversion: x m/sec = x X (18/5) km/hr. If the ratio of the speeds of A and B is a : b, then the ratio of the the times taken by then to cover the same distance is 1/a : 1/b or b : a. Suppose a man covers a certain distance at x km/hr and an equal distance at y km/hr. Then, the average speed during the whole journey is: [2xy/(x + y)] km/hr. ...

TIME AND WORK: IMPORTANT FORMULAS

Work from Days: If A can do a piece of work in n days, then A's 1 day's work =1/n Days from Work: If A's 1 day's work =1/n,then A can finish the work in n days. Ratio: If A is thrice as good a workman as B, then: Ratio of work done by A and B = 3 : 1. Ratio of times taken by A and B to finish a work = 1 : 3. ...

PROBABILITY : IMPORTANT FORMULAS

Experiment: An operation which can produce some well-defined outcomes is called an experiment. Random Experiment: An experiment in which all possible outcomes are know and the exact output cannot be predicted in advance, is called a random experiment. Examples: # Rolling an unbiased dice. # Tossing a fair coin. # Drawing a card from a pack of well-shuffled cards. # Picking up a ball of certain colour from a bag containing balls of different colours. Details: [1] When we throw a coin, then either a Head (H) or a Tail (T) appears. [2] A dice...
