1Which of the following represents the dimensional formula for Planck's constant?
A.ML^2T^-2
B.ML^2T^-1
C.MLT^-1
D.ML^2T^1
Explanation: Planck's constant (h) is defined by the energy equation E = hν. Since energy (E) has dimensions [ML^2T^-2] and frequency (ν) has dimensions [T^-1], Planck's constant has the dimensions of [ML^2T^-2]/[T^-1] = [ML^2T^-1].
2What type of motion is represented by a straight line with a constant non-zero slope on a distance-time graph?
A.Uniform velocity
B.Constant acceleration
C.Zero velocity
D.Non-uniform acceleration
Explanation: A straight line on a distance-time graph indicates that distance changes at a constant rate with respect to time. The slope of a distance-time graph represents speed/velocity, so a constant slope means uniform velocity.
3What is the work done by a centripetal force on an object moving in a circle of radius R with constant speed v?
A.m * v^2
B.m * v^2 / R
C.Zero
D.2 * pi * R * m * v^2
Explanation: Work done is given by W = F * d * cos(theta), where theta is the angle between force and displacement. Centripetal force acts towards the center of the circle, while displacement is tangential, making the angle theta = 90 degrees. Since cos(90) = 0, the work done is zero.
4Which of the following is the SI base unit of luminous intensity?
A.Lumen
B.Lux
C.Watt
D.Candela
Explanation: Luminous intensity is one of the seven base physical quantities in the SI system, and its unit is the candela (cd). The candela measures the power emitted by a light source in a particular direction per unit solid angle.
5What is the escape velocity of an object projected from the surface of the Earth?
A.11.2 km/s
B.8.0 km/s
C.11.2 m/s
D.42.1 km/s
Explanation: The escape velocity from Earth is given by the formula v_e = sqrt(2 * G * M / R), where G is the gravitational constant, M is the Earth's mass, and R is the Earth's radius. Substituting Earth's parameters yields approximately 11.2 km/s.
6Which of the following statements correctly compares the coefficient of static friction (μ_s) and the coefficient of kinetic friction (μ_k) for a given pair of contact surfaces?
A.μ_s is equal to μ_k
B.μ_s is generally greater than μ_k
C.μ_s is always less than μ_k
D.There is no relation between them
Explanation: The coefficient of static friction is generally greater than the coefficient of kinetic friction. This is because intermolecular bonds form more effectively when surfaces are at rest relative to each other, requiring a larger force to initiate motion than to sustain it.
7According to Bernoulli's principle, what happens to the pressure of a flowing fluid in a region where the fluid's velocity increases?
A.Pressure increases
B.Pressure remains constant
C.Pressure decreases
D.Pressure becomes zero
Explanation: Bernoulli's equation states that for an incompressible, non-viscous fluid, the sum of pressure energy, kinetic energy, and potential energy per unit volume is constant along a streamline. Consequently, if the velocity (kinetic energy term) increases, the static pressure must decrease to keep the total energy constant.
8How does the electrical resistance of a typical semiconductor thermistor change as its temperature increases?
A.It decreases
B.It increases
C.It remains unchanged
D.It first increases, then decreases
Explanation: A typical semiconductor thermistor has a negative temperature coefficient (NTC). As temperature increases, more valence electrons acquire enough energy to cross the bandgap into the conduction band, increasing charge carrier density and decreasing resistance.
9Which physical phenomenon is primarily responsible for the blue color of the clear daytime sky?
A.Total internal reflection
B.Rayleigh scattering
C.Refraction
D.Interference
Explanation: The blue color of the sky is caused by Rayleigh scattering of sunlight by particles in the atmosphere. The intensity of scattered light is inversely proportional to the fourth power of the wavelength (I ∝ 1/λ^4), meaning shorter wavelengths (blue and violet) are scattered much more than longer ones (red).
10Which electronic component is primarily used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC)?
A.Transformer
B.Amplifier
C.Transistor
D.Rectifier
Explanation: A rectifier is an electrical device consisting of one or more diodes that allows current to flow in only one direction. This unidirectional behavior converts alternating current (which periodically reverses direction) into pulsating direct current.
