Everyday Science Medium

Which type of lens is used to correct myopia or nearsightedness?

  • AConvex lens
  • BConcave lens
  • CBifocal lens
  • DCylindrical lens
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option B — Concave lens
Explanation: Concave lenses are used to correct myopia or nearsightedness because they diverge light rays before they enter the eye allowing the image to focus properly on the retina.

Everyday Science Medium

Which everyday device uses the principle of capillary action to function?

  • AThermometer
  • BCandle wick
  • CBarometer
  • DMagnet
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option B — Candle wick
Explanation: A candle wick uses capillary action to draw melted wax upward toward the flame allowing continuous burning as the liquid wax is pulled through the narrow fibers of the wick.

Everyday Science Medium

Which gas law states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant pressure?

  • ABoyle's law
  • BCharles's law
  • CGay-Lussac's law
  • DAvogadro's law
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option B — Charles's law
Explanation: Charles's law states that at constant pressure the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature meaning gas expands when heated and contracts when cooled.

Which gas law states that pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional at constant temperature?

  • ABoyle's law
  • BCharles's law
  • CGay-Lussac's law
  • DAvogadro's law
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option A — Boyle's law
Explanation: Boyle's law states that at constant temperature the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume meaning increased pressure results in decreased volume and vice versa.

Everyday Science Medium

Which principle explains the lift generated by an aircraft wing due to differences in air pressure?

  • APascal's law
  • BBernoulli's principle
  • CArchimedes' principle
  • DBoyle's law
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option B — Bernoulli's principle
Explanation: Bernoulli's principle explains that faster moving air over an aircraft wing creates lower pressure compared to slower air beneath generating the lift needed for flight.

Everyday Science Medium

Which scientific principle explains why objects float or sink in a fluid?

  • AArchimedes' principle
  • BPascal's law
  • CBernoulli's principle
  • DNewton's law
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option A — Archimedes' principle
Explanation: Archimedes' principle states that an object submerged in a fluid experiences an upward buoyant force equal to the weight of fluid displaced determining whether it floats or sinks.

Everyday Science Medium

Which law explains the equal and opposite reaction observed when a rocket launches?

  • ANewton's first law
  • BNewton's second law
  • CNewton's third law
  • DLaw of conservation of energy
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option C — Newton's third law
Explanation: Newton's third law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction explaining how a rocket is propelled forward by expelling gases backward at high speed.

Everyday Science Medium

Which law of motion explains why passengers lurch forward when a moving bus suddenly stops?

  • ANewton's first law
  • BNewton's second law
  • CNewton's third law
  • DLaw of gravitation
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option A — Newton's first law
Explanation: Newton's first law of inertia explains that passengers continue moving forward when a bus suddenly stops because objects in motion tend to remain in motion unless acted upon by an external force.

Which type of energy is stored in the chemical bonds of food and fuels?

  • AKinetic energy
  • BPotential energy
  • CChemical energy
  • DThermal energy
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option C — Chemical energy
Explanation: Chemical energy is stored in the bonds between atoms in food and fuels and is released through chemical reactions such as digestion or combustion to perform useful work.

Which element is the primary component of natural gas used for cooking and heating?

  • APropane
  • BMethane
  • CButane
  • DEthane
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option B — Methane
Explanation: Methane is the primary component of natural gas commonly used for cooking and heating due to its high combustion efficiency and widespread availability through pipeline distribution.
