Question

An accused is more powerful than the deceased. Police are less powerful than the court but more powerful than the lawyer. Accused bends his head before police. Who is the most powerful?

• A. Court
• B. Accused
• C. Police
• D. Lawyer

Hint:

Arrange entities in a hierarchy based on the given power relationships to determine the most powerful.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Given relations: - Accused>Deceased (Accused is more powerful than deceased). - Court>Police>Lawyer (Court is more powerful than Police, Police is more powerful than Lawyer). - Police>Accused (Police is more powerful than Accused). - Accused bows to Police, indicating Police’s superiority. Combining these: \[ \text{Court}>\text{Police}>\text{Accused}>\text{Deceased}, \quad \text{Police}>\text{Lawyer} \] Hence, Court holds the highest position of power.
