CAT 2024 DILR did not have a change in pattern. Atleast two sets were doable in each slot and one of the four sets was extremely tough. Choice of Sets became a crucial factor. Overall this section was at a medium to high level of difficulty.
The air-conditioner (AC) in a large room can be operated either in REGULAR mode
or in POWER mode to reduce the temperature.
If the AC operates in REGULAR mode,
then it brings down the temperature inside the room (called inside temperature) at a
constant rate to the set temperature in 1 hour. If it operates in POWER mode, then this is
achieved in 30 minutes.
If the AC is switched off, then the inside temperature
rises at a constant rate so as to reach the temperature outside at the time of switching off
in 1 hour.
The temperature outside has been falling at a constant rate from 7 pm
onward until 3 am on a particular night. The following graph shows the inside temperature
between 11 pm (23:00) and 2 am (2:00) that night.
The following facts are known about the AC operation that
night.
• The AC was turned on for the first time that night at 11 pm (23:00).
• The AC setting was changed (including turning it on/off, and/or setting different
temperatures) only at the beginning of the hour or at 30 minutes after the hour.
• The
AC was used in POWER mode for longer duration than in REGULAR mode during this 3-hour
period.
Question 13 : What was the maximum difference between temperature outside and inside temperature, in degree Celsius, between 11:01 pm and 1:59 am?
