[official][prelims 2023] How was prelims result? In or out?

seesatsaid
considering all doubtful negative, 78 bn rhe hain.
Need these questions flipped in my favour:
Msme (ALL loans ko mainey incorrect kiya hai)
"Successful coup" ki jgah southward expansion of sahara (SAHEal) precisely because sudan was in news due to unsuccessful coup
Carbon markets (mainey don't shift resources kiya hai)
Schedule areas (only 1 kiya hai because pesa k baad IMO panchayat in a village is lowest area)
Gandhak vs buri gandhak (only 1 true kiya hai)
Prisons act ke (2nd statement false ki hai)
Mercury (kuch to safe limit hogi hi..... mercury ko haath lgaya hai kuch nhi hua
I know this is useless at this time, lekin fir bhi koi Dilasa de skta hai

There is lots of hope for you.

@seesat Regarding the African countries question; In Sudan sometime back, Omar-al-Bashir was toppled by armed forces chief Burhan. Also, this should clear https://www.nytimes.com/article/burkina-faso-africa-coup.html?auth=register-google

Also Guinea is a bit to the south. https://earth.google.com/web/@10.64610517,-8.50114425,227.23267169a,2550151.60968214d,35y,-0h,0t,0r

Rest I agree except prisons act and mercury question.

TomiokaGiyu,

@Neyawn In GS I Set A Q54 - Don't we use a gyroscope for determining the rotation of mobile devices? Also, can anyone else share their logic for this question?

My logic - Accelerometer is used to measure acceleration. Using accelerometer readings, we can detect change in acceleration. In collision and free fall of laptop, there is a change in acceleration (a sudden negative value, and a sudden positive value, respectively) - hence we can detect that using accelerometer. When we rotate the phone, there is no such change in acceleration (zero in every direction - before and after rotation) - hence we cannot detect orientation change using accelerometer. So, that gives only two.

@seesat Can't say but should depend on CSAT on how much the cut-off reduces imho. Should not be more than 80.

After reading some more, now I am more confused. I marked 'All three' btw.

But all important answer keys (vision, forum, shankar, insights, vajiram) are unanimous on 'All three'.

DancingMaster,

@TomiokaGiyu Get your point, but the question says 'In how many of the above actions is the function of accelerometer required?'; doesn't it mean to say that an accelerometer should be necessary?

TomiokaGiyu,

seesat .

@Srinjay Maybe you are right

But where is the successful coup in Chad. It definitely failed . Seedha coup likhta upsc. Doston how are you dealing with so much ambiguity in answer keys? Considering all negative aap logon ke 90 bn rhe hain?

Also - https://foreignpolicy.com/2022/12/06/chad-deby-coup-leader-democracy/

@seesat Would depend on the definition of coup I think, here is what the NYT says - "An unusual coup unfolded in Chad in April 2021. A president who had ruled for three decades was killed on the battlefield, and his son was quickly installed in his place — a violation of the Constitution."

"News of the death of Mr. Déby, 68, was broadcast to the nation on state television by a group of military officers, who also announced that the president’s son would succeed him and head a transitional military council that would lead to new elections in 18 months."

That sounds like a coup.

TomiokaGiyu,

@Srinjay Also Vision has provided alternate solutions in the doubtful questions, which is a good thing. All other institutes are playing god and are providing definitive answers (in comprehension passages) as if UPSC itself came to tell them about the right answers.
