IBM Sample Problem Using Speed

Question 1 A policeman starts chasing a thief 30 minutes after the thief had run from a spot. With an average speed of 20km per hour, he takes 2 hours to catch the thief. What is the average speed of the thief? a)16km/hr b)25km/hr c)24km/hr d)18km/hr Answer : a)16km/hr Solution: As given, the average speed of the policeman = 20km/hr. He takes 2 hours to catch the thief, so from formula, "distance = speed x time" we have The total distance covered by the police to catch the thief = 20 x 2 = 40 km (This value is also equal to the distance run by thief before being caught by Police.) Policeman had started late by 30 minutes and took 2 hours to catch the running thief. Above means that the thief takes (30minutes + 2 hours =) 5/2 hours to reach 40km. So the speed of the thief = 40/(5/2) = 40 x 2 / 5 = 16 km/hr. Hence the answer is 16km/hr. Question 2 From a particular spot, Tom started to chase Jerry which had left the spot before 30 minutes. Tom ran acro...

IBM Sample Technical Interview Questions

1.Can you tell advantages of RDBMS over simple custom DBMS ? Answer: Any data storage in any manageable structure can be called a DBMS. But, it is the responsibility of the programmer to maintain the data integrity and to take care of constraints. But on RDBMS, the system takes care of almost all of the data integrity requirements. Hence, the programmer could focus more on business logic rather than worrying about data integrity much. 2. Which is the layer of an Operating System that takes care of the system resource usage at the lowest level ? Answer: Answer is Kernel Layer. 3. Can you tell any two advantages of stored procedures ? Answer: Stored procedures can replace complex program segments requiring extensive SQL statements being executed from the code, hence they can make the application more manageable. Another advantage is that the usage of stored procedures can significantly reduce the network and bandwidth usage. This is because of the reduction in the num...
