Test - Physics - 3 - Question 1

Which of the following is used for regulated electric supply?  

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 1

The Zener diode is like a generalpurpose signal diode. When based in the forward direction it behaves just like a normal signal diode, but when a reverse voltage is applied to it, the voltage remains constant for a wide range of currents and hence widely used for regulated electric supply. The device was named after Clarence Zener, who discovered this electrical property. Many diodes described as "Zener" diodes rely instead on avalanche breakdown as the mechanism.

Test - Physics - 3 - Question 2

What is found in frequency modulation?  

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 2

Frequency modulation (FM) conveys information over a carrier wave by varying its instantaneous frequency. This contrasts with amplitude modulation, in which the amplitude of the carrier is varied while its frequency remains constant. Frequency modulation is also used in telemetry, radar, seismic prospecting and newborn EEG seizure monitoring.

Test - Physics - 3 - Question 3

When the speed of car is doubled, then what will be the braking force of the car to stop it in the same distance?  

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 3

Brake force, also known as Brake Power, is a measure of braking power of a vehicle. Suppose a car whose mass is 'x' and is braked from a speed of y km/hr to come to halt at a uniform retardation in z min. If the speed of the car is doubled in the same distance, then the braking force required to stop the car is four times the original speed i.e. '4v'. Note that all the parameters remain to be same.

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 6

The ozone layer absorbs 97-99% of the Sun's medium-frequency ultraviolet light (from about 200 nm to 315 nm wavelength), which potentially damages exposed life forms on Earth. Ozone is formed from dioxygen by the action of ultraviolet light and also atmospheric electrical discharges, and is present in low concentrations throughout the Earth's atmosphere. In total, ozone makes up only 0.6 parts per million of the atmosphere.

Q.48) Speed of sound is the greatest in :  

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 8

Sound travels faster in liquids and non-porous solids than it does in air. It travels about 4.3 times as fast in water (1,484 m/s), and nearly 15 times as fast in iron (5,120 m/s), than in air at 20 degrees Celsius.

Test - Physics - 3 - Question 9

Laser is a device to produce -

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 9

In physics, two wave sources are perfectly coherent if they have a constant phase difference and the same frequency, and the same waveform. Coherence is an ideal property of waves that enables stationary (i.e. temporally and spatially constant) interference.

Test - Physics - 3 - Question 10

The hydraulic brakes used in automobiles is a direct application of :  

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 10

Pascal's principle guarantees that the pressure is transmitted equally to all parts of the enclosed fluid system. This gives straightline braking unless there is a fluid leak or something to cause a significant difference in the friction of the surfaces. The hydraulic brake is an arrangement of braking mechanism which uses brake fluid, typically containing ethylene glycol, to transfer pressure from the controlling unit, which is usually near the operator of the vehicle, to the actual brake mechanism, which is usually at or near the wheel of the vehicle.

Test - Physics - 3 - Question 11

A kilowatt-hour is unit of –

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 11

The kilowatt-hour (symbolized kWh) is a unit of energy equivalent to one kilowatt (1 kW) of power expended for one hour (1 h) of time.

Test - Physics - 3 - Question 12

Which of the following is used to split white light into different colours?  

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 12

In optics, a prism is a transparent optical element with flat, polished surfaces that refract light. At least two of the flat surfaces must have an angle between them. The exact angles between the surfaces depend on the application. The traditional geometrical shape is that of a triangular prism with a triangular base and rectangular sides, and in colloquial use "prism" usually refers to this type. 

Test - Physics - 3 - Question 13

Nuclear reactors used to produce electricity are based on –

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 13

A nuclear reactor is a device to initiate and control a sustained nuclear chain reaction. Most commonly they are used for generating electricity and for the propulsion of ships. Usually heat from nuclear fission is passed to a working fluid (water or gas), which runs through turbines that power either ship's propellers or generators.

Test - Physics - 3 - Question 14

Energy that is produced commercially from coal is called –

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 14

Thermal enemy, but in most cases coal is used for electricity. The steel industry uses coal (or coke rather) in blast furnaces. Thermal energy is the part of the total internal energy of a thermodynamic system or sample of matter that results in the system temperature. This quantity may be difficult to determine or even meaningless unless the system has attained its temperature only through heating, and not been subjected to work input or output, or any other energy-changing processes.

Test - Physics - 3 - Question 15

Which among the following is not a characteristic of transition metals?  

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 15

The transition metals have a tendency to lose electrons. Since the electrons in the highest energy level are actually on a lower principal energy number than the ones before them, this makes it relatively easy to lose some or all of their electrons to land in stable state.

Test - Physics - 3 - Question 16

Which one of the following is not a function of the liver?

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 16

Liver is the body’s largest internal organ. It has many functions in the body like it helps in protein synthesis and blood clotting, manufacturing triglycerides and cholesterol, glycogen synthesis, and bile production.

Test - Physics - 3 - Question 17

The source of the Sun's energy is the process of –

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 17

Nuclear fusion is a nuclear reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei join together, or "fuse", to form a single heavier nucleus. During this process, matter is not conserved because some of the mass of the fusing nuclei is converted to energy which is released. Fusion is the process that powers active stars. 

Test - Physics - 3 - Question 18

A boy sitting in a train moving with a uniform velocity drops a coin outside. A man standing outside the train will find the trajectory of the coin to be -

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 18

Parabola, because when the coin is dropped at a particular point, it has the same velocity as the running train. So, by Newton's first law, it continues its motion horizontally with that velocity. But then, it is also pulled down by earth's gravity continuously. In this situation its horizontal motion gives way to the parabolic motion until it reaches the ground.

Test - Physics - 3 - Question 19

Which of the following is a nonrenewable source of energy?  

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 19

A non-renewable resource is a natural resource which cannot be reproduced, grown, generated, or used on a scale which can sustain its consumption rate. So, coal is nonrenewable source of energy. Once it is depleted, there is no more available for future needs. Fossil fuels (such as coal, petroleum, and natural gas), nuclear power (uranium) and certain aquifers are examples of non-renewable resources.

Test - Physics - 3 - Question 20

Solar energy is converted into chemical energy during –

Detailed Solution for Test - Physics - 3 - Question 20

In photosynthesis, solar energy is converted to chemical energy. The chemical energy is stored in the form of glucose (sugar). Carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight are used to produce glucose, oxygen, and water.
