Multiple Choice Questions

21.

If there were no atmosphere, the average temperature on earth surface would be

  • lower

  • higher

  • same

  • 0°C



22.

Asserion: : NAND is a universal gate.

Reason: It can be used to describe all other logic gates.

  • If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

  • If assertion is true but reason is false

  • If both assertion and reason are false



23.

Black  holes  in  orbit  around  a  normal  star  are  detected  from  earth  due  to  the  frictional  heating  of  infalling  gas  into  the  black  hole,  which  can  reach  temperatures  greater  than  106 K.  Assuming  that  the  infalling  gas  can  be  modelled  as  a  blackbody  radiator,  then  the  wavelength  of  maximum  power  lies

  • in the visible region

  • in the X-ray region

  • in the microwave region

  • in the gamma-ray region of electromagnetic spectrum



24.

If vy , vx and  vm are the speeds of gamma rays, X-rays and microwaves respectively in vacuum,  then

  • vy > vx >  vm

  • vy < vx < vm

  • vy >  vx >  vm

  • vy = vx = vm



25.

Assertion: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a useful diagnostic tool for producing images of various parts of human body. 

Reason:  Protons of various tissues of human body play a role in MRI.

  • If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of the assertion

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion

  • If assertion is true, but reason is false

  • Both assertion and reason are false statements



26.

Assertion: Dipole oscillations produce electromagnetic waves.

Reason: Accelerated charge produces electromagnetic waves.

  • If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion 

  • If assertion is true but reason is false

  • If both assertion and reason are false



27.

  • 1μ0 ε0

  • μ0ε0

  • ε0μ0



28.

Assertion:  X-rays can penetrate through the flesh but not through the bones. 

Reason:  The penetrating power of X-rays depends on voltage.

  • If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

  • If assertion is true but reason is false

  • If both assertion and reason are false
