Sample AIIMS B.Sc. Nursing Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the AIIMS B.Sc. Nursing exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1The dimensional formula for impulse is the same as that of:

A.Momentum

B.Force

C.Energy

D.Power

Explanation: Impulse = Force x time = N s = kg m s^-1. Momentum p = m v also has units kg m s^-1. Hence impulse and momentum share dimensions [M L T^-1].

2A body is thrown vertically upward with velocity 20 m/s from ground (g = 10 m/s^2). The maximum height reached is:

A.10 m

B.20 m

C.40 m

D.5 m

Explanation: Using v^2 = u^2 - 2gh at the highest point v = 0: 0 = (20)^2 - 2(10)h, giving h = 400/20 = 20 m.

3A block of mass 2 kg rests on a horizontal surface (mu = 0.4, g = 10 m/s^2). The minimum horizontal force required to move it is:

A.20 N

B.4 N

C.8 N

D.2 N

Explanation: Limiting friction f = mu x N = 0.4 x (2 x 10) = 8 N. Any force greater than 8 N is needed to overcome static friction and initiate motion.

4A force F = 10 N displaces a body by 5 m at an angle of 60 degrees with the force direction. Work done is:

A.50 J

B.43.3 J

C.0 J

D.25 J

Explanation: W = F x s x cos(theta) = 10 x 5 x cos(60 deg) = 10 x 5 x 0.5 = 25 J. The cosine factor accounts for the component of force along displacement.

5The moment of inertia of a uniform solid sphere of mass M and radius R about a diameter is:

A.(2/5) M R^2

B.(2/3) M R^2

C.M R^2

D.(1/2) M R^2

Explanation: For a solid sphere, the standard moment of inertia about any diameter through the centre is I = (2/5) M R^2. This is a key formula often tested in NEET.

6The acceleration due to gravity at a height equal to the radius of Earth above the surface is:

A.g/2

B.g/4

C.g/9

D.g

Explanation: g_h = g x [R/(R+h)]^2. With h = R: g_h = g x (R/2R)^2 = g x 1/4 = g/4.

7In a Carnot engine operating between 500 K and 300 K, the efficiency is:

A.60%

B.20%

C.40%

D.75%

Explanation: Carnot efficiency eta = 1 - T_cold/T_hot = 1 - 300/500 = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4 or 40%. Temperatures must be in Kelvin for this formula.

8Two point charges +4 microC and +1 microC are placed 30 cm apart. The point on the line joining them where the electric field is zero lies:

A.10 cm from the +4 microC charge

B.15 cm from each

C.Outside the segment

D.20 cm from the +4 microC charge

Explanation: For zero field between two like charges, distances satisfy q1/x^2 = q2/(d-x)^2. With q1 = 4, q2 = 1, d = 30: 4/(x)^2 = 1/(30-x)^2, so 2(30-x) = x, x = 20 cm from the +4 microC charge.

9Three resistors of 2, 3 and 6 ohms are connected in parallel. The equivalent resistance is:

A.1 ohm

B.11 ohm

C.0.5 ohm

D.2 ohm

Explanation: 1/R = 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/6 = 3/6 + 2/6 + 1/6 = 6/6 = 1. Hence R = 1 ohm.

10A converging lens of focal length 20 cm forms an image of an object placed 30 cm in front of it. The image distance is:

A.12 cm on the same side

B.60 cm on the opposite side

C.60 cm on the same side

D.10 cm on the opposite side

Explanation: Lens formula 1/v - 1/u = 1/f with u = -30, f = +20: 1/v = 1/20 + 1/(-30) = 3/60 - 2/60 = 1/60. v = +60 cm (real, opposite side).

AIIMS B.Sc. Nursing: Suggested Study Strategy

1Train with 100-question timed sets because the official paper is 2 hours and negative marking rewards accuracy.

2Keep formula revision compact for mechanics, electricity, optics and heat because Physics has 30% weight.

3For Chemistry, mix physical calculation practice with organic functional groups and biomolecule basics.

4For Biology, prioritise human physiology, genetics, cell biology, reproduction, ecology and health topics.

5Use stable General Knowledge sources for WHO, ICMR, public health days, nursing history and India basics rather than chasing volatile trivia.
