Protolabs Interview Questions, Process, and Tips

The Bear was white in color as it was a polar bear
It started moving from the north pole towards the south 1
mile and again after moving 1 mile east and one mile north
he reached his original position

A parabola is obtained as the intersection of a cone with a
plane

length=x does not imply breadth=36-x
2x+4y=36.
3 possible answers are
(2,8) -> 16sqcm.
(4,7) -> 28sqcm.
(6,6) -> 36sqcm

Speed of Stream = 1/2 (Downstream Speed – Upstream Speed)
=1/2(40-14)
=1/2(26)
=13km/h
method 2:
for down stream case :speed=Boat speed + Stream speed
for up stream case :speed=Boat speed – Stream speed

therefore, Bs + Ss =40
Bs – Ss =14
(-) (-) (-)
———————
2Ss=26
Ss=26/2 = 13Km/h
Stream speed= 13Km/hr

( b ) 216.90

A can give B (5 min – 4 1/2 min) = 30 sec start.
The distance covered by B in 5 min = 1000 m.
Distance covered in 30 sec = (1000 * 30)/300 = 100 m.
A can give B 100m start.

The answer is A)

y1 = 62 Rs/kg
y2 = 72 Rs/kg
y = 64.5 Rs/kg

y2 – y1 = 10 Rs/kg

The distance between the y and y1 is

y – y1 = 64.5 – 62 = 2.5

x1 = (y – y1)/(y2 – y1) = 2.5/10 = 0.25
x2 = 1 – x1 = 1 – 0.25 = 0.75

The target price is calculated by the lever method.

x1 * y2 + x2 * y1 = 0.25 * 72 + 0.75 * 62.5 = 64.5

The ratio is of y1 to y2 is

0.75 : 0.25

Divide by both by 0.25

3 : 1

this is a simple question but the questionaire needs us to
consume time.
speed of car = 2 * speed of auto.
auto takes 30 mins then car should take only 15 mins.
total time = 10 mins + 15 mins = 25 mins = (a)

let MP = 100x
25% discount = 75x -> SP
Profit% = (Profit/CP)x100
125 = (75x/CP)x100
.: CP = 60x

Now if discount = 10%
SP = 90x
.: Profit% = ((90x-60x)/60x)x100 = 50%

= 100 + 100 = 200 m

Time taken by train = 10 sec.

∵ Speed = Distance/Time

⇒ Speed of train = 200/10 = 20 m/sec.

∴ Speed of train = 20 × 18/5 = 72 kmph.

In question they left 10 seconds
