Which law relates force, mass, and acceleration?

  • A Newton's First Law
  • B Newton's Second Law
  • C Newton's Third Law
  • D Law of Gravitation
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option B — Newton's Second Law
Explanation: Newton's Second Law states that force equals mass multiplied by acceleration, describing how the net force applied to an object determines its rate of acceleration, with heavier objects requiring more force for equal acceleration.

A diode allows current to flow in:

  • A A direction determined by voltage frequency
  • B Neither direction
  • C Both directions equally
  • D Only one direction
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option D — Only one direction
Explanation: A diode is a semiconductor device designed to allow electric current to flow easily in only one direction while blocking flow in the reverse direction, making it useful for rectification.

What is the term for an object floating due to the upward force of a fluid?

  • A Gravity
  • B Buoyancy
  • C Tension
  • D Friction
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option B — Buoyancy
Explanation: Buoyancy is the upward force exerted by a fluid on a submerged or floating object, opposing its weight. According to Archimedes' Principle, this force equals the weight of the fluid displaced by the object, determining whether it floats or sinks.

The law of conservation of linear momentum applies to a system when:

  • A Mass is constant only
  • B External force is maximum
  • C External force is zero
  • D Internal forces are zero
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option C — External force is zero
Explanation: Linear momentum of a system is conserved when the net external force acting on it is zero, meaning the total momentum before an event, such as a collision, equals the total momentum after it.

Which process transfers heat through the movement of fluid currents?

  • A Convection
  • B Conduction
  • C Radiation
  • D Sublimation
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option A — Convection
Explanation: Convection transfers heat through the movement of fluids as warmer less dense fluid rises and cooler denser fluid sinks creating convection currents that distribute thermal energy.

What is the term for the force per unit area exerted on a surface?

  • A Force
  • B Energy
  • C Work
  • D Pressure
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option D — Pressure
Explanation: Pressure is defined as the force exerted perpendicular to a surface divided by the area over which it acts, measured in Pascals. It plays a critical role in fluids, gases, and structural engineering applications.
