Each candle take 1 hour to complete

My question is to burn both candles in such a way that both will take 90 minutes collectively

ie total time should be 90 minutes to burn both

Okay it was kind of easy for me
I heard similar question few years back which i quite correctly remember
Although i don't know it was really a aptitude question or my cousin fooling around
The question was
Everyone was showed the window of the room.
and asked to jump from the window

None of them went ahead
but a guy climbed on the window pane
and jumped back in the room
and he was selected
So applied kind of same logic

1) Place thermometer perpendicular to the floor and against the wall.
2) Make a mark on the wall at the top of the thermometer.
3) Shift thermometer up so bottom is at mark.
4) Repeat 2) and 3) until close to the ceiling.
5) Shift thermometer up until it touches ceiling and mark location of highest mark on thermometer to determine fraction of thermometer length for last segment.

This would give the height of the room in units of "thermometers". This is not a standard unit of measurement, but it is a measurement. If you desire a more standard unit like centimeters, then measure the length of the thermometer and multiply by height of the room in "thermometers".

-How would you catch and receive a ball in same direction? (Dropping is from north
and receiving from bottom not accepted, as it is 2 directions)

isnt it the same? catching a ball or receiving a ball?

he meant throwing and recieving the ball.

and i think the simplest way is to use the ball in pendulum, push it in any direction, wait for it to reach the extreme position in opposite direction, then recieve it in between. 😁

There are 3 people A,B,C. Liars are of same type and truth speaking are of same type. Find out who is speaking truth and who is speaking false when they say:
A says, B is liar.
B says, A and C are of same type.
