Q1. When a capacitor is connected to a battery
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

When an uncharged capacitor is connected to a battery, charges flow from the poles of the battery to the plates of the capacitor and this process continues till the potential across the capacitor attains the potential difference of the battery. The current flows in the circuit till the time the capacitor is charged and then it ceases.

Q2. Strong Nuclear Force has
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

Strong Nuclear Force : The nucleus is held by the forces which protect them from the enormous repulsion forces of the positive protons. It is a force with short range and not similar to the electromagnetic force. We know that the nucleus is made up with its fundamental particles that are the protons and neutrons. These are formed with quarks which are held together with strong force. This strong force is residual color force. The basic exchange particle is called gluon which works as mediator forces between quarks. Both the particles; gluons and quarks are present in protons and neutrons.

Q3. A boy comes running and sits on a merry-go-round. What is conserved?
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

According to law of conservation of angular momentum if no external torque is applied on a body in rotation than its angular momentum remains conserved.

Q4. A liquid drop of radius R is broken up into N small droplets. The work done is proportional to
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q5. What is the root-mean-square speed of helium atoms in a balloon of diameter 30.0 cm at 20.0C and 1.00 atm?
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

vrms=3RTM=3×8.31×2934×103=1351m/sec=1.35Km/sec
Q6. A person can see clearly only up to a distance of 30 cm. He wants to read a book placed at a distance of 50 cm from his eyes. What is the power of the lens he requires for his spectacles?
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q7. The process of fusion is used in the construction of
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q8.

A child running a temperature of 101F is given an antipyrin (i.e. a medicine that lowers fever) which causes an increase in the rate of evaporation of sweat from his body. If the fever is brought down to 98 F in 20 min, what is the average rate of extra evaporation caused, by the drug? Assume the evaporation mechanism to be the only way by which heat is lost. The mass of the child is 30 kg. The specific heat of human body is approximately the same as that of water, and latent heat of evaporation of water at that temperature is about 580 cal 


Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:


Specific heat of the human body = Specific heat of water = 1000 cal/kg/ °C

The heat lost by the child is 

Let m1 be the mass of the water evaporated from the child’s body in 20 min. 
Loss of heat through water is

 

Average rate of extra evaporation caused by the drug = m1 / t
= 86.2 / 200
= 4.3 g/min.


Q9. The number of significant digits in 0.0006032  is
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

There are three rules on determining how many significant figures are in a number:

  • Non-zero digits are always significant.
  • Any zeros between two significant digits are significant.
  • A final zero or trailing zeros in the decimal portion ONLY are significant.

So keeping these rules in mind, there are 4 significant digit
