Physics · Question 361
The Doppler effect is commonly observed as an apparent change in the frequency of:
Sound waves due to relative motion
A stationary direct current
The mass of a body
The charge on an electron
Show AnswerHide Answer
Correct answer: A
Sound waves due to relative motion
Relative motion between a wave source and observer produces an apparent frequency shift.
Physics · Question 362
Periodic alternation between maximum and minimum sound intensity caused by two nearby frequencies is called:
Resonance
Beats
Refraction
Polarisation
Show AnswerHide Answer
Correct answer: B
Beats
Superposition of two waves with slightly different frequencies produces beats.
Physics · Question 363
One weber per ampere is equal to one:
Tesla
Henry
Farad
Ohm
Show AnswerHide Answer
Correct answer: B
Henry
Inductance is magnetic flux linkage per current, and its SI unit is the henry.

One tesla is equal to how many gauss?
10
100
1,000
10,000
Show AnswerHide Answer
Correct answer: D
10,000
One tesla equals 10^4 gauss.
Physics · Question 365
What are the dimensions of Planck's constant?
MLT^-1
ML^2T^-1
ML^2T^-2
M^-1L^2T
Show AnswerHide Answer
Correct answer: B
ML^2T^-1
Planck's constant has the dimensions of energy multiplied by time: ML^2T^-1.
Physics · Question 366
The continuity equation for a steadily flowing fluid expresses conservation of:
Charge
Mass
Angular momentum only
Temperature
Show AnswerHide Answer
Correct answer: B
Mass
The mass flow rate remains constant along a stream tube in steady flow.
Physics · Question 367
Force is equal to the rate of change of:
Velocity only
Kinetic energy
Momentum
Displacement
Show AnswerHide Answer
Correct answer: C
Momentum
Newton's second law in general form is F = dp/dt.
Physics · Question 368
Which SI unit may be used for torsional rigidity, or torque per unit angular twist?
N m rad^-1
N m^-2
N s
J s^-1
Show AnswerHide Answer
Correct answer: A
N m rad^-1
Torsional rigidity is torque divided by angular twist, giving N m per radian.
Physics · Question 369
What is the energy stored in an inductor of inductance L carrying current I?
LI
LI^2
1/2 LI^2
2LI^2
Show AnswerHide Answer
Correct answer: C
1/2 LI^2
The magnetic energy stored in an inductor is U = 1/2 LI^2.
Physics · Question 370
After a freely falling object reaches terminal velocity, its acceleration is:
g
Zero
Increasing
Equal to its velocity
Show AnswerHide Answer
Correct answer: B
Zero
At terminal velocity drag balances weight, so net force and acceleration are zero.
