Physics · Question 211

At fixed capacitance, doubling the voltage across a capacitor changes its stored energy to:

  1. Four times its original value
  2. Twice its original value
  3. Half its original value
  4. One quarter its original value
Show AnswerHide Answer

Correct answer: A

Four times its original value

Stored energy is CV squared divided by 2, so doubling voltage quadruples energy.

Physics · Question 212

A voltmeter measures the potential difference across a resistor when connected:

  1. In place of the power source
  2. In parallel with it
  3. In series with it
  4. Only to one terminal
Show AnswerHide Answer

Correct answer: B

In parallel with it

A parallel connection places the voltmeter across the same two terminals.

Physics · Question 213

Which Kepler law relates orbital period squared to orbital semi-major axis cubed?

  1. Second law
  2. A fourth law
  3. Third law
  4. First law
Show AnswerHide Answer

Correct answer: C

Third law

Kepler third law gives T squared proportional to a cubed for objects orbiting the same central mass.

Physics · Question 214

In an ideal transformer, which property of the alternating supply is unchanged between primary and secondary?

  1. Voltage in every case
  2. Current in every case
  3. Number of coil turns
  4. Frequency
Show AnswerHide Answer

Correct answer: D

Frequency

A transformer changes voltage and current ratios, but both windings operate at the same frequency.

Chemistry · Question 215

Which principle limits one atomic orbital to two electrons with opposite spins?

  1. Pauli exclusion principle
  2. Boyle law
  3. Le Chatelier principle
  4. Graham law
Show AnswerHide Answer

Correct answer: A

Pauli exclusion principle

No two electrons in an atom share all four quantum numbers; an orbital permits two opposite spins.

Chemistry · Question 216

The hydrogen Paschen series lies in which spectral region?

  1. Gamma-ray
  2. Infrared
  3. Visible
  4. X-ray
Show AnswerHide Answer

Correct answer: B

Infrared

Paschen transitions end at principal quantum number 3 and emit infrared radiation.

Chemistry · Question 217

Which subatomic particle did James Chadwick discover in 1932?

  1. Proton
  2. Positron
  3. Neutron
  4. Electron
Show AnswerHide Answer

Correct answer: C

Neutron

Chadwick established the existence of the electrically neutral neutron.

Chemistry · Question 218

The amount of product actually obtained in an experiment is called the:

  1. Theoretical yield
  2. Molar volume
  3. Activation energy
  4. Actual yield
Show AnswerHide Answer

Correct answer: D

Actual yield

Actual yield is measured experimentally; theoretical yield is the calculated maximum.

Chemistry · Question 219

Degenerate orbitals have the same:

  1. Energy
  2. Spatial orientation in every case
  3. Electron spin in every case
  4. Shape in every case
Show AnswerHide Answer

Correct answer: A

Energy

Degeneracy means equality of energy, not necessarily identical shape or orientation.

Biology · Question 220

An animal stores glucose as which polysaccharide?

  1. Sucrose
  2. Glycogen
  3. Cellulose
  4. Chitin
Show AnswerHide Answer

Correct answer: B

Glycogen

Glycogen is the principal animal storage polysaccharide.
