Physics MCQs

Notes:
Kelvin is the base unit of temperature (SI unit), having the unit symbol K. The Kelvin temperature scale has an absolute zero (0°K) below which temperatures do not exist. It is the lowest possible temperature. At this temperature there is no motion and no heat. It is equivalent to 0°K, or -273.15° C, or at -460° F.

Notes:
Inertia is the property of matter that is why it continues in its existing state of either rest or motion. It can be changed by an external force. Here in the question the coin falls in the glass even after the cardboard is flicked because it maintains its rest position by the nature of inertia.

Notes:
VHF (Very High Frequency) omnidirectional radio range (VOR), is a short-range radio navigation system for aircraft, enabling aircraft to determine their position and stay on course by receiving radio signals transmitted by a network of fixed ground radio beacons, with a receiver unit. Uses radio frequencies in the very high frequency (VHF) band from 108 to 117.95 MHz. VOR is the standard air navigational system in the world, used by both commercial and general aviation.

Notes:
When we shout in an empty hall, we hear your own sound after a short time. This is because the empty room reflects the sound, so there is an echo.
When a hall is full of people, the sound produced is reflected multiple times by the people. This causes the sound to overlap with the original sound, so the listener can’t distinguish between the two.
For an echo to be heard, the surfaces need to reflect the sound, or there needs to be more clarity. For example, big open spaces are good for hearing echoes.

Notes:
X-rays were discovered by Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen. W.C Roengten discovered X-Rays while actually working on Cathode rays. X-rays is a form of electromagnetic radiation having a wavelength ranging from 0.01 to 10 nanometers and frequencies in the range 30 petahertz to 30 exahertz. Some Uses of X-Rays: The main use of X-rays is in medicine to check for a broken bone inside body. X-rays can also be used to kill cancer cells. X-rays are used at security checks at airports, railway stations etc. to check customers and baggage. X-rays are also used art historians to see if a picture has been painted on top of an older one. X-ray diffraction is also very important in spectroscopy and as a basis for X-ray crystallography.

Notes:
The unit of Coefficient of Mutual inductance is henry lambert is the S.I unit of Luminance weber is the S.I unit of Magnetic Flux candela is the S.I unit of Luminous Intensity

Notes:
Non-uniform motion refers to the motion where the objects cover equal distances in unequal time or unequal distances in equal time. In other words, when the speed of the object is not constant, or the direction of movement of an object changes, then it is in non-uniform motion. An example of this can be any vehicle moving on a crowded city road, where it constantly changes its speed.

Notes:
When an object moves with constant negative acceleration, having positive initial velocity, the velocity-time graph is a straight line having slope more than 90°. When an object moves with constant positive acceleration, having positive initial velocity, the velocity-time graph is a straight line having slope less than 90°.

Notes:
Centripetal force is the force required to move a body uniformly in a circle. This force acts along the radius and towards the centre of the circle. Centrifugal force is the force that arises when a body is moving actually along a circular path by virtue of the tendency of the body to regain its path.

Notes:
Electron volt is a practical unit of energy. Some practical units of energy are: 1 erg = 10^-7 J 1 calorie = 4.2 J 1 Kilowatt hour = 3.6 x 10⁶ J 1 Electron volt(ev) = 1.6 x 10^-19 J
