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

  • ABoyle's Law
  • BCharles's Law
  • CAvogadro's Law
  • DGay-Lussac's Law
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option A — Boyle's Law
Explanation: Boyle's Law states that at constant temperature the pressure of a fixed amount of gas is inversely proportional to its volume meaning doubling pressure halves the volume.

Which type of spectrum is produced when white light passes through a prism?

  • ALine emission spectrum
  • BContinuous spectrum
  • CBand spectrum
  • DAbsorption spectrum
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option B — Continuous spectrum
Explanation: A prism produces a continuous spectrum showing a smooth gradation from red to violet as white light is dispersed into its component wavelengths through refraction.

What is polarisation of light?

  • ASplitting light into its spectrum
  • BRestriction of light vibrations to a single plane
  • CBending of light around obstacles
  • DTotal reflection of light
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option B — Restriction of light vibrations to a single plane
Explanation: Polarisation restricts the transverse vibrations of light to a single plane demonstrating that light is a transverse wave and is used in polaroid sunglasses and LCD screens.

Which experiment demonstrated that light behaves as a wave by producing an interference pattern?

  • AYoung's double slit experiment
  • BRutherford's gold foil experiment
  • CMillikan's oil drop experiment
  • DCompton scattering experiment
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option A — Young's double slit experiment
Explanation: Young's double slit experiment demonstrated light's wave nature by producing alternating bright and dark fringes on a screen when coherent light passed through two closely spaced slits.

What is the phenomenon where two waves superpose to produce regions of maximum and minimum intensity?

  • AInterference
  • BDiffraction
  • CRefraction
  • DPolarisation
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option A — Interference
Explanation: Interference occurs when two coherent waves superpose to produce alternating regions of constructive interference maximum intensity and destructive interference minimum intensity.

Which device uses the piezoelectric effect to produce ultrasonic waves?

  • ALoudspeaker
  • BMicrophone
  • CElectric motor
  • DUltrasonic transducer
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option D — Ultrasonic transducer
Explanation: An ultrasonic transducer uses the piezoelectric effect where certain crystals generate mechanical vibrations when an electric voltage is applied producing high frequency sound waves.

What is simple harmonic motion?

  • AMotion in a circle at constant speed
  • BOscillatory motion where restoring force is proportional to displacement
  • CUniform linear motion
  • DRandom motion under multiple forces
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option B — Oscillatory motion where restoring force is proportional to displacement
Explanation: Simple harmonic motion is a type of oscillatory motion where the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement from equilibrium and directed toward the equilibrium position.

Physics Hard

Which phenomenon causes a spinning top to precess rather than fall over immediately?

  • AConservation of energy
  • BMagnetic force
  • CGyroscopic effect
  • DCentripetal force only
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option C — Gyroscopic effect
Explanation: The gyroscopic effect causes a spinning top to precess slowly around a vertical axis rather than falling over because its angular momentum resists changes to its orientation.
