Q1. A pebble of mass 0.05 kg is thrown vertically upwards. Give the direction and magnitude of the net force on the pebble, during its upward motion, Ignore air resistance
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

F = mg = 0.05 x 10 = 0.5 N

Q2. Universal law of gravitation does not explain
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

Universal law of Gravitational explain the force of attraction between two bodies having mass  and placed at a distance but it never explain how this force generated and what is the origin of this.

Q3. For a parallel plate capacitor ______________ possible potential difference between the capacitor plates
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

When a dielectric is introduced between two charged plates of a capacitor having a charge Q and maintained at a potential difference of V, a reverse electric field is set up inside the dielectric due to dielectric polarization.

This reduces the electric field in between the plates. The potential is also reduced. Maximum potential is dependent on the charge on the plates. As the charge remains constant, the presence of the dielectric decreases the maximum potential between the plates.

Q4. A child swinging on a swing in a sitting position stands up. Then, the time period of the swing will
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

As the child stand up then Centre of mass is shifted in upwards direction from the sitting position of child, thus decreasing the effective length of  the swing, so as the time period is proportion to square root of length, thus time period decreases.

time period 


Time period of swing decreases as effective length decreases.


Q5. If  is the density of the fluid flowing with a speed v, D stands for the dimension of the pipe, and  is the viscosity of the fluid Reynolds number  is given by
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

It is a dimension less number comprised of the physical characteristics of the flow. An increasing Reynolds number indicates an increasing turbulence of flow.

It is defined as: Re=

where;
v is the flow velocity
D is a characteristic linear dimension
ρ fluid density(kg/m3)
η is dynamic viscosity (Pa.s)
ν kinematic viscosity (m2/s),  v=


Q6. Figure shows plot of PV/T versus P for 1.00×kg of oxygen gas at two different temperatures The dotted plot corresponds to

Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

for 1 mole of ideal gas, according to ideal gas equation


hence graph must be with zero slope. So that dotted line show ‘ideal’ gas behavior and curved line shows deviation from ‘ideal’ gas behavior


Q7. Farsighted or hypermetropic eye can be corrected by
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q8. β -rays and γ -rays are respectively
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q9. 25.0 μF capacitor is connected to a 220 V, 50 Hz source. Capacitive reactance and the current (rms) in the capacitor are circuit
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:


Capacitive reactance 


rms current 


Q10. In which mode of heat transfer is there material movement?
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

Convection is the heat transfer due to bulk movement of molecules within fluids.
