  1. How many significant figures are there in the measurement 0.03060 m?

    Chapter 1: Units and Measurements

    Show answer

    Answer: C. 4
    Zeros before the first nonzero digit are not significant; the zero between 3 and 6 and the final zero after the decimal point are, giving 3, 0, 6, 0 = 4.

  2. On the Celsius scale, absolute zero (the zero of the Kelvin scale) is at:

    Chapter 7: Thermal Properties of Matter

    Show answer

    Answer: B. −273.15 °C
    Pressure–temperature graphs of all gases meet the temperature axis at −273.15 °C; this is absolute zero, the zero of the Kelvin scale.

  3. A ball is projected from the ground with speed 20 m/s at 45° to the horizontal. Taking g = 10 m/s², its horizontal range is:

    Chapter 3: Motion in a Plane

    Show answer

    Answer: C. 40 m
    R = u² sin2θ / g = (20)² × sin90° / 10 = 400 × 1 / 10 = 40 m (45° gives the maximum range).

  4. According to Kepler's law of areas, a planet moving around the Sun moves:

    Chapter 5: Gravitation

    Show answer

    Answer: A. fastest when it is nearest to the Sun
    The line joining the planet and the Sun sweeps equal areas in equal times, so the planet must move faster when it is closer to the Sun.

  5. Within the elastic limit, Poisson's ratio is the ratio of:

    Chapter 6: Mechanical Properties of Solids

    Show answer

    Answer: D. lateral strain to linear strain
    Poisson's ratio = lateral strain ÷ linear strain; being a ratio of two strains, it has no unit.

  6. Newton treated sound travel in air as isothermal. Laplace's correction changed his formula v = √(P/ρ) by bringing in which factor?

    Chapter 8: Sound

    Show answer

    Answer: B. γ = Cp/Cv, the ratio of specific heats of air
    Laplace said compressions and rarefactions are adiabatic, so v = √(γP/ρ) with γ = Cp/Cv ≈ 1.41 for air, which matches the experimental value.

  7. The critical angle for a pair of media is the angle of incidence in the denser medium for which the angle of refraction in the rarer medium is:

    Chapter 9: Optics

    Show answer

    Answer: A. 90°
    At the critical angle the refracted ray grazes the surface (r = 90°); for larger angles total internal reflection takes place.

  8. Two point charges at rest repel each other with force F. If the distance between them is made three times, keeping the charges the same, the new force is:

    Chapter 10: Electrostatics

    Show answer

    Answer: D. F/9
    By Coulomb's law F ∝ 1/r²; tripling r makes the force 1/3² = 1/9 of F.

  9. Resistors of 4 Ω and 12 Ω are connected in parallel. Their equivalent resistance is:

    Chapter 11: Electric Current Through Conductors

    Show answer

    Answer: C. 3 Ω
    1/Rp = 1/4 + 1/12 = 3/12 + 1/12 = 4/12, so Rp = 3 Ω (less than the smallest resistor).

  10. When pure silicon is doped with phosphorus, a pentavalent impurity, the majority charge carriers in it are:

    Chapter 14: Semiconductors

    Show answer

    Answer: A. electrons
    A pentavalent donor gives an extra free electron, making an n-type semiconductor where electrons are the majority carriers and holes the minority carriers.
