Question 11
One ton is equal to ……………….lb

A
500
B
1000
C
2000
D
10000
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option C

The ton is a unit of measure. 1 ton is equal to 2000lb

Question 12
A magnetic needle in compass always direct in which direction ?

A
North – South
B
South – North
C
East – West
D
West – East
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option A

In Magnetic compass, a magnetic needle which always direct in North-South (N-S) direction.

Question 13
Fleming’s left-hand rule is applicable for which of the following ?

A
Electric Generators
B
Electric motors
C
Electric Fans
D
Electric Lights
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option B

In an electric motor, the electric current and magnetic field exist (which are the causes), and they lead to the force that creates the motion (which is the effect), and so the left hand rule is used.

Question 14
In ophthalmoscope which mirror is used to examine eye, ear, nose by doctors.

A
Convex mirror
B
Spherical Mirrors
C
Plane mirrors
D
Concave mirror
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option D

In ophthalmoscope concave mirror is used to examine eye, ear, nose by doctors. Concave mirror is used in a shaving mirror and also used as a reflector for the head lights of a vehicle, search light

Question 15
The Upthrust is a which type of force ?

A
Upward force
B
Downward force
C
Frictional Force.
D
Applied force
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option A

Upthrust is defined as the upward force on the object provided by the liquid because the object has “displaced” some of the fluid.

Question 16
Which rule is applicable for Generators ?

A
Fleming’s right-hand rule
B
Centrifugal force
C
Kirchhoff’s circuit laws
D
Fleming’s right-hand rule
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option D

Fleming’s right-hand rule (for generators) shows the direction of induced current when a conductor moves in a magnetic field. It can be used to determine the direction of current in a generator’s windings.

Question 17
Which of the following is/are property of heavy water ?

A
Heavy Water produces Corrosion
B
Freezing point of heavy water is higher than that of ordinary water
C
Density of ordinary water is lesser than that of heavy water
D
Boiling point of heavy water is higher than that of ordinary water
E
All of these
Correct Answer: Option E

Heavy water is colorless, odourless and tasteless mobile liquid.. Higher viscosity of heavy water is responsible for lower solubility of ionic solids like NaCl and smaller mobility ions.

Question 18
………………….. of a chemical element is the spectrum of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation emitted due to an atom’s electrons making a transition from a higher energy state to a lower energy state

A
Continuous Spectra
B
Absorption Spectra
C
Emission Spectra
D
Line Spectra
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option C

Emission Spectra of a chemical element is the spectrum of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation emitted due to an atom’s electrons making a transition from a higher energy state to a lower energy state

Question 19
Which of the following is true ?

A
It depends upon atmosphere
B
Hot air is less dense than cool air
C
Hot air balloon not rises
D
Hot air is more dense than cool air
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option B

The hot air balloon rises because hot air is less dense than cool air; the heated air causes the balloon to rise simply because it is lighter than an equal volume of cold air.

Question 20
……………. is the ratio of the flow inertia to the external field

A
Reynold Number
B
Boltzmann Constant
C
Avogadro Number
D
Froude Number
E
None of these
Correct Answer: Option D

Froude number (Fr) is a dimensionless number defined as the ratio of the flow inertia to the external field
