Q1. In Photoelectric effect
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

In photoelectric effect emission of photoelectron takes place. So that photocurrent is flow in circuit.

Q2. Which of these is an example of broadcast communication?
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

In broadcast mode of communication a large number of receivers are linked to a single transmiiter.Radio works as receiver which converts the transmiited information/message into the original form of the information.

Q3. Conservation of charges in tribo electric charging
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

The triboelectric effect (also known as triboelectric charging) is a type of contact electrification in which certain materials become electrically charged after they come into frictional contact with a different material. Rubbing glass with fur, or a plastic comb through the hair, can build up triboelectricity.

When we charge something with static electricity, no electrons are made or destroyed. No new protons appear or disappear. Electrons are just moved from one place to another. The net, or total, electric charge stays the same. This is called the principle of conservation of charge.

If a glass rod is rubbed with silk, some electrons moves from glass rod to silk no new charge is generated or destroyed.


Q4. In Geiger-Marsden experiment prediction was that
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q5. If  is the maximum current, then the average value of power dissipated in a resistance R over a cycle is
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

As in the case with DC power, the instantaneous electric power in an AC circuit is given by P = VI, but these quantities are continuously varying. So the average power is given by

Pavg = VI cosφ

where φ is the phase angle between the current and the voltage and where V and I are understood to be the effective or rms values of the voltage and current.

Now RMS value of I is = 

So, RMS value of V= 

Therefore, Power will be

P=           (because cosφ= 1 for circuit containing resistance only)


Q6. If a positive charge moves in the direction of the electric field
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

A positive charge experiences a force in the direction of the field. If it moves in the direction of the field, positive work is done by the electric field on the charge. Potential energy of the charge increases only when an external source does work on the charge against the direction of the field- eg: when the charge is moved against the direction of the field

Q7. Refraction is
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q8. Nuclear species or nuclides are shown by the notation ____________ where X is the chemical symbol of the species.
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

Atomic mass number (total number of nucleons) and the atomic number (number of protons) of the species are given by A and Z, respectively.

Q9. correct unit of magnetic field is
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

The SI unit of magnetic field is Tesla (T)

Q10. It is observed in a potentiometer experiment that no current passes through the galvanometer, when the terminals of the cell are connected across a certain length of the potentiometer wire. On shunting the cell by a 2 Ω resistance, the balancing length is reduced to half. The internal resistance of the cell is
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

The internal resistance of the cell is given by:
