Comprehension

The following sketch shows the pipelines carrying material from one location to another. Each location has a demand for material. The demand at Vaishali is 400, at Jyotishmati is 400, at Panchal is 700, and at Vidisha is 200. Each arrow indicates the direction of material flow through the pipeline. The flow from Vaishali to Jyotishmati is 300. The quantity of material flow is such that the demands at all these locations are exactly met. The capacity of each pipeline is 1,000.

Question: 1

The quantity moved from Avanti to Vidisha is:

Show Hint

Track the flow step-by-step and sum the downstream demands to find the upstream movement.

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

From the diagram, Vidisha requires 200 units but also supplies Jyotishmati (demand 400) and Panchal (demand 700). Flow from Vidisha to Jyotishmati + Panchal = 600 + 200 = 800, meaning 800 units must be moved from Avanti to Vidisha to meet these demands.

Question: 2

The free capacity available at the Avanti–Vaishali pipeline is:

Show Hint

Free capacity = Total capacity – Actual flow. Always calculate the actual flow first.

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Pipeline capacity = 1,000 units. Flow from Avanti to Vaishali = demand at Vaishali (400) + flow to Jyotishmati (300) = 700 units. Free capacity = 1,000 – 700 = 200 units.

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Capacity = 1,000 units, actual flow from Avanti to Vidisha = 800 units (from Q115). Free capacity = 1,000 – 800 = 300 units.
