Direction for [ Question No: 68 To 70 ] :

At an Electronic Data Processing Unit, five out of the eight program sets P, Q, R, S, T, U, V and W are  to be operated daily. On any one day, except for the first day of a month, only three of the program sets must be the ones that were operated on the previous day. The program operating must also satisfy the following conditions :
(i). If program P is to be operated on a day, V cannot be operated on that day.
(ii). If Q is to be operated on a day, T must be one of the programs to be operated after Q.
(iii). If R is to be operated on a day, V must be one of the programs to be operated after R.
(iv). The last program to be operated on any day must be either S or U.

If R is operated at third place in a sequence, which of the following cannot be the second program in that sequence ?

Answer: A

If R is operated at third place, it will be followed by V at the fourth place and S or U at the end.
So, Q which must have T as one of the programs after it, cannot be at the second place.

Answer: C

Clearly, if R is operated at the fourth place, V must be operated somewhere after it. This is not possible since the fifth program is the last one which has to be either S or U. So, R cannot be operated at the fourth Place.
