581.

Pick out the scalar quantity
(a)Pressure
(b)Force
(c)Acceleration
(d)Velocity
Comment
Answer is: AA scalar quantity is defined as the physical quantity that has only magnitude, for example, mass and electric charge. On the other hand, a vector quantity is defined as the physical quantity that has both magnitude as well as direction like force and weight.

582.

If two bodies of different masses, initially at rest, are acted upon by the same force for the same time, then the both bodies acquire the same
(a)Kinetic energy
(b)Acceleration
(c)Momentum
(d)Velocity
Comment
Answer is: CSince the Force and the duration of time for which it acted are same, the product of force and time will be the same for both. Since Forcetime gives change in momentum of a body, and they had 0 momentum initially, their final momenta will be same.

583.

Out of the following pairs, choose the pair in which the physical quantities do not have identical dimension?
(a)Impulse and moment of force
(b)Planck's constant and Angular momentum
(c)Force and rate of change of linear momentum
(d)Pressure and Young's modules
Comment
Answer is: AA physical quantity is a property of a material or system that can be quantified by measurement.

584.

Let a thin capillary tube be replaced with another tube of insufficient length then, we find water
(a)Change its meniscus
(b)Depressed
(c)Will overflow
(d)Will not rise
Comment
Answer is: DWhen length of capillary tube is insufficient then we would observe no rise on level of water because their will be no air pressure created enough to rise the water level.

585.

Metals are good conductors of electricity because
(a)The atoms are lightly packed
(b)They have high melting point
(c)They contain free electrons
(d)All of the above
Comment
Answer is: CElectric current is the flow of electrons in a wire. In metals, the outer electrons of the atoms belong to a ?cloud? of delocalised electrons. They are no longer firmly held by a specific atom, but instead they can move freely through the lattice of positive metal ions

586.

Of the following properties of a wave, the one that is independent of the other is its
(a)Velocity
(b)Amplitude
(c)Wavelength
(d)Frequency
Comment
Answer is: BThe amplitude is independent of other means it is not related to the other quantities.

587.

Find the maximum velocity for the overturn of a car moving on a circular track of radius 100 m. The co-efficient of friction between the road and tyre is 0.2
(a)14 m/s
(b)140 m/s
(c)1.4 km/s
(d)0.14 m/s
Comment
Answer is: A
