- A. gets hotter
- B. increase is mass
- C. decreases in mass
- D. changes to steam

43. A siren having a ring of 200 hole makes 132 rev/min. A jet of air is directed on the set of holes. Calculate the frequency and wavelength in air of the note produced (take v = 350m/s)
- A. 0.875m
- B. 0.625m
- C. 0.335m
- D. 0.125m
Correct Option: Answer is A
n = 200, S = 132 rev/min, v = 350m/s²
f = n = 200 x 132 rev / min x 1min / 60s = 440Hz
λ = v / f = 350/400 =0.875m
44. A man on a bench will exert the greatest pressure on the bench when he
- A. lies flat on his back
- B. lies flat on his belly
- C. stands on both feet
- D. stands on the toes of one foot
Correct Option: Answer is D
P = F / A
hence, pressure increases when the areas decreases.
45. Gases conduct electricity under
- A. high pressure & high voltage
- B. low pressure & low voltage
- C. normal pressure & low voltage
- D. low pressure & high voltage
Correct Option: Answer is D
Gases conduct electricity under low pressure & high voltage
46. Neutrons were discovered by
- A. Faraday
- B. Dalton
- C. James Chadwick
- D. Rutherford
Correct Option: Answer is C
It was discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.
47. The mass of a nucleus is the
- A. total number of its proton & neutrons
- B. number of its protons
- C. mass of its electrons
- D. total number of its protons & electrons
Correct Option: Answer is A
Nucleus = mass of proton + mass of neutron
48. Three resistors with resistance 200Ω, 500Ω and 1kΩ are connected in series. A 6v battery is connected to either end of the combination. Calculate the potential difference between the ends of 200Ω resistance.
- A. 0.71V
- B. 0.7V
- C. 0.82V
- D. 0.8V
Correct Option: Answer is A
Req = 200 + 500 + 1000 = 1700Ω
p.d (across 200Ω) = 200 / 1700 x 6 = 0.71V
49. An a.c of 1A at a frequency of 800 cycles per second flows through a coil, the inductance of which is 2.5mH and the resistance of which is 5Ω. What is the power absorbed in the Coil?
- A. 5W
- B. 6W
- C. 7W
- D. 8W
Correct Option: Answer is A
I = 1A, F = 800 cycles/s = 800Hz
R = 5Ω, L = 2.5mH
P = I²R = I² × 5 = 5W
50. In semi-conductor, the carriers of current at room temperature are
- A. electrons only
- B. electrons and holes
- C. holes only
- D. electron and ions
Correct Option: Answer is B
Electron and holes represents the negative and positive charge respectively.
