Questions 46-50
A researcher is experimenting with varying arrangements of exactly six units that are
electrical conductors – G, J, K, M, P, and S – in a loop containing eight positions, each
capable of containing one conductor. In each arrangement, each conductor is at one of the
eight and two positions are empty. In devising arrangements, the researcher must obey
the following restrictions:
G must be directly adjacent to J.
P must be directly adjacent to S.
M must be directly adjacent to S on one side and to an empty position on the other.
A signal can be transferred from one conductor directly to another when the tow
conductors are directly adjacent to each other, and only then. A signal can be transferred
either way around the loop, from one conductor to another, until it reaches an empty
position. A signal can’t be transferred across an empty position.
(46) If a signal can be transferred, either directly or indirectly, from J to K, it must be true
that a signal can be transferred, either directly or indirectly, from
(a) G to K (b) G to M
(c) J to M (d) J to P (e) J to S
(47) If K is directly adjacent to P, any of the following could be true EXCEPT
(a) G is directly adjacent to K
(b) J is directly adjacent to K
(c) J is directly adjacent to P
(d) G is directly adjacent to an empty position
(e) J is directly adjacent to an empty position
(48) If P is directly adjacent to an empty position, which of the following is the greatest
number of conductors, including starting and ending conductors, that can be used
in the transfer of a single signal
