Welcome to Online General Knowledge section in LearnFrenzy, which is important for SSC, UPSC, Civil Service exams and other competitive exams. We have created Some questions related to General Science(Physics) !!!

Question 1
The density of pure water is _________________

A
100 kg/m3
B
1000 kg/m3
C
2000 kg/m3
D
2000 kg/m3
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option B

The density of pure water is 1000 kg/m3. Ocean water is more dense because of the salt in it. Density of ocean water at the sea surface is about 1027 kg/m3.

Question 2
Thermionic emission occurs when the metal is _______________

A
Heated at very high temperature
B
Heated at high temperature
C
Cooled at very low temperature
D
All of these
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option A

The process by which free electrons are emitted from the surface of a metal when external heat energy is applied is called thermionic emission. Thermionic emission occurs in metals that are heated to a very high temperature.

Question 3
The density of sea water is _________ the density of fresh water

A
Lesser than
B
Equal to
C
Greater than
D
Can’t say
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option C

Salt water is denser than fresh, salt water provides more buoyancy there is even differences from the pacific ocean and the Atlantic

Question 4
Static friction is _____________ Kinetic friction

A
same as
B
Lesser than
C
Equal to
D
Greater than
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option D

Static friction is greater than kinetic friction because of irregularities between the static object and the surface upon which it rests. The irregularities mesh together making it more difficult to start movement than to keep the object in motion

Question 5
X-rays travel in _________________ and a beam of X-rays diverges from its source.

A
Opposite direction
B
Can’t say
C
Straight line
D
Circle
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option C

X-rays are electromagnetic waves with wavelength range 0.1 A-100 A.X-rays were discovered by Roentgen and X-rays travels in straight line.

Question 6
When we rub hands which of the following Conversion will happen ?

A
Mechanical energy converted into Heat energy
B
Chemical energy converted into Heat energy
C
Mechanical energy converted into Electrical energy
D
Electrical energy converted into Heat energy
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option A

When we rub hands, the mechanical energy due to friction between the hands is converted into heat energy

Question 7
When water is lifted into an overhead tank, electrical energy is converted into

A
Mechanical Energy
B
Thermal Energy
C
Potential Energy
D
Kinetic Energy
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option D

When water is lifted int an overhead tank using a motor, it converts electric energy to kinetic energy.

Question 8
The green colour glass will allow …………… to pass through it

A
Only Green
B
Only White
C
Only Black
D
All colours
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option A

Green cellophane/glass will only allow green light to pass through it.

Question 9
During respiration, food is converted into _____________ and _____________

A
Carbon dioxide, Water
B
Water, Carbon monoxide
C
Hydrogen, Carbon
D
Nitrogen, Hydroxide
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option A

Respiration is the chemical reactions that take place within cells by which food is “burned” and converted into carbon dioxide and water.

Question 10
An arrow is stretched in a bow, which energy is converted into potential energy ?

A
Heat energy
B
Chemical energy
C
Kinetic energy
D
Mechanical energy
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option D

When a bow with an arrow is stretched, the mechanical energy is converted into potential energy.
