Solutions
S1. Ans.(a)
Sol. The Pascal is SI unit of pressure.
S2. Ans.(b)
Sol. Capillary action phenomenon
S3. Ans.(d)
Sol. 1 Micron = 10^(-6) metre
1 Nanometre = 10^(-9) metre
1 Angstrom = 10^(-10) metre
1 Fermimetre = 10^(-15) metre
Thus, the smallest unit of length in the given options is fermi metre.
S4. Ans.(b)
Sol. Manometer is an instrument that uses a column of liquid to measure pressure, commonly referred as pressure measuring instrument.
S5. Ans.(b)
Sol. Mainly there are two types of devices that are used to measure solar radiations these are: (i) Pyrheliometer (ii) Pyranometer.
S6. Ans.(b)
Sol. The shape of a drop of rain is constrained by the surface tension, which tries to give it the shape for which the surface area is minimum for the given volume. The spherical shape has the minimum surface area. That’s why rain drops acquire spherical shape.
S7. Ans.(a)
Sol. Soap bubbles are large because when soap dissolved in water its surface tension is reduced. The pressure inside a soap bubble is more than atmospheric pressure.
S8. Ans.(c)
Sol. This is because of a phenomenon is known as winter stratification in water bodies. In the winter season, the water at the top layer of water bodies will be ice cold (0°C) and are gradually frozen. But still, the bottom layers will have liquid water and maintain a temperature (4°C) which supports the life there. Thus, fishes and other aquatic animals are saved from the frozen top layer of water.
S9. Ans.(b)
Sol. The color of light is determined by its wavelength. Different colors have different wavelengths. The wavelength of red colour is largest and violet colour has shortest wavelength.
S10. Ans.(d)
Sol. Due to the refraction of light, the sun is visible to us a few minutes before sunrise and a few minutes after sunset.
S11. Ans.(a)
Sol. The concept of expanding universe is based on Doppler effect. It was named after Christian Doppler, who first came up with the idea in 1942. Edwin Hubble used the Doppler Effect to determine that universe is expanding. Hubble found that the light from distant galaxies was shifted towards lower frequencies, to the red end of the spectrum. This is known as a red Doppler shift or a red-shift.
S12. Ans.(a)
Sol. Steam has more heat energy than boiling water because it requires Latent Heat of Vapourization for boiling water to change phase from liquid to vapour. Therefore our body comes in contact with more heat when exposed to steam than boiling water
S13. Ans.(c)
Sol. Latent heat of Melting = 80 calorie/gram
The heat required for ice at 0°C to convert in water = 80 calorie
Required heat to enhance the temperature of water from 0°C to 100°C = 100 calorie
Latent heat of vaporization = 540 calorie/gram
Hence the energy required to convert water into vapour at
100°C = 540 calorie.
Total heat required = 80 + 100 + 540
= 720 calorie.
S14. Ans.(b)
Sol. Absolute zero is the lowest possible temperature at which point the atoms of a substance transmit no thermal energy. They are completely at rest. It is 0 degrees on the Kelvin scale, which translates to-273.15 degree Celsius.
S15. Ans.(b)
Sol. Elements such as cast iron, ice, antimony, bismuth, and brass when melts, their volume decreases. These type of solids floats in their own melted fluid.
