- A.
1971
- B.
1981
- C.
1991

In which of the following processes is energy released?
- A.
Respiration
- B.
Photosynthesis
- C.
Ingestion
- D.
Absorption
Correct Answer
A. RespirationExplanation
Respiration is the correct answer because it is a metabolic process that occurs in cells, where glucose and oxygen are converted into carbon dioxide, water, and energy. This energy is released in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the main energy currency of cells. In contrast, photosynthesis is a process in which energy from sunlight is converted into glucose, so it is an energy-absorbing process. Ingestion and absorption are not processes that directly release energy, but rather involve the intake and absorption of nutrients.Rate this question:

The Source of the sun’s energy, is the process of –
- A.
Photoelectric emission
- B.
Nuclear fission
- C.
Nuclear fusion
- D.
Thermionic emission
Correct Answer
C. Nuclear fusionExplanation
Nuclear fusion is the correct answer because it is the process by which the sun produces energy. In nuclear fusion, the nuclei of atoms combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. This is the process that powers the sun, as hydrogen nuclei combine to form helium, releasing a tremendous amount of energy in the form of light and heat. The other options, photoelectric emission, nuclear fission, and thermionic emission, are not the processes responsible for the sun's energy production.Rate this question:

The strongest force in nature is –
- A.
Electrical force
- B.
Gravitational force
- C.
Nuclear force
- D.
Magnetic force
Correct Answer
C. Nuclear forceExplanation
The nuclear force is the strongest force in nature. It is responsible for holding the nucleus of an atom together by overcoming the electrostatic repulsion between positively charged protons. This force is stronger than both the electrical force and the gravitational force. While the electrical force governs interactions between charged particles and the gravitational force governs interactions between masses, the nuclear force is specifically responsible for binding protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus. Therefore, the nuclear force is considered the strongest force in nature.Rate this question:

In nuclear reactor, heavy water is used as –
- A.
Coolant
- B.
Fuel
- C.
Moderator
- D.
Atomic smasher
Correct Answer
C. ModeratorExplanation
In a nuclear reactor, heavy water is used as a moderator. A moderator is a substance that slows down the fast-moving neutrons produced during nuclear fission. This is important because slower neutrons are more likely to cause additional fission reactions, allowing the chain reaction to continue. Heavy water, which contains a higher concentration of deuterium (a heavy isotope of hydrogen), is particularly effective at slowing down neutrons due to its higher mass. Therefore, heavy water is used in nuclear reactors as a moderator to help sustain the fission reactions.Rate this question:

Electric current in a metal wire is due to the flow of –
- A.
Electrons
- B.
Protons
- C.
Ions
- D.
Holes
Correct Answer
A. ElectronsExplanation
Electric current in a metal wire is due to the flow of electrons. In a metal, the outermost electrons of atoms are loosely bound and can move freely. When a potential difference is applied across the wire, these electrons are pushed by the electric field and start moving, creating a flow of electric charge. This movement of electrons constitutes the electric current in the wire. Protons, ions, and holes do not flow freely in a metal wire and therefore cannot be the cause of electric current in it.Rate this question:

The nature of fuse wire is –
- A.
Low melting point
- B.
High melting point
- C.
High conductivity
- D.
None of these
Correct Answer
A. Low melting pointExplanation
Fuse wire is designed to have a low melting point. This is because its purpose is to protect electrical circuits from excessive current flow by melting and breaking the circuit when there is a fault or overload. By melting at a low temperature, the fuse wire can quickly interrupt the current and prevent damage to the circuit or equipment.Rate this question:

A transformer –
- A.
Converts DC to AC
- B.
is used to decrease or increase AC voltage
- C.
Converts AC voltage to DC voltage
- D.
Converts electrical energy into mechanical energy
Correct Answer
B. is used to decrease or increase AC voltageExplanation
A transformer is a device used to decrease or increase AC voltage. It works on the principle of electromagnetic induction, where a changing current in one coil induces a voltage in a nearby coil. By varying the number of turns in each coil, the transformer can step up or step down the voltage level. This makes it a crucial component in electrical power transmission and distribution systems, allowing efficient transfer of electricity over long distances at different voltage levels.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. SmellExplanation
The analogy presented in the question is comparing the relationship between "tongue" and "taste" to find a similar relationship between two other words. The tongue is closely associated with the sense of taste, as taste buds are located on the tongue. Similarly, the nose is closely associated with the sense of smell, as it contains olfactory receptors that allow us to detect different scents. Therefore, the correct answer is "smell" as it is the sense that is associated with the nose, just as taste is associated with the tongue.Rate this question:

A. MondayExplanation
To determine the day of the week for Ritu's birthday, we need to calculate the number of days between Meetu's birthday (8th March) and Ritu's birthday (10th July). From 8th March to 10th July, there are 124 days. Since 124 is divisible by 7 (the number of days in a week), we can conclude that Ritu's birthday will fall on the same day of the week as Meetu's birthday. Therefore, Ritu's birthday will be on a Monday.Rate this question:
