What will be the buoyant force acting on the stone, on being immersed in water, if it displaces 100gms of water?
  • 1000 gm-weight
  • 100 gm-weight
  • 10 gm-weight
  • 1 gm-weight
Explanation:
 

The buoyant force acting on an object immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.

Given that the stone displaces 100 grams of water, the buoyant force will be equal to the weight of 100 grams of water.

Since 1 gram of water weighs 1 gram-weight, the weight of 100 grams of water is 100 gram-weights.

What is the net magnetic field in a solenoid?
  • product of the fields due to all the turns
  • equal to the field due to the largest turn
  • vector sum of the fields due to all the turns
  • arithmetic mean of the fields due to all the turns
Explanation: The net magnetic field inside a solenoid is given by the vector sum of the fields due to all the turns of the solenoid. In a solenoid, each turn of the wire generates a magnetic field, and the magnetic fields from all the turns add up to produce a stronger net magnetic field inside the solenoid.
What is the ratio of the change in collector current to the change in base current at a constant collector-emitter voltage, when the common emitter transistor is in active state, known as?
  • Input resistance
  • Output resistance
  • Current amplification factor
  • None of the above
Explanation: The current amplification factor, denoted by β (beta), is a key parameter of a bipolar junction transistor (BJT) that measures its efficiency in amplifying current. It is defined as: β=ΔIc/ΔIB where: • ΔIc is the change in collector current. • ΔIB is the change in base current. This factor indicates how much the collector current increases for a given increase in the base current, while keeping the collector-emitter voltage (VCE) constant.
What is the relationship between bond energy and bond length?
  • Bond energy is independent of bond length
  • Bond energy increases with the increase of bond length
  • Bond energy decreases with the increase of bond length
  • None of the above
Explanation: Generally, as the bond length between two atoms increases, the bond energy decreases. This is because longer bonds indicate that the atoms are further apart, resulting in weaker interactions and a lower energy required to break the bond. In contrast, shorter bonds are stronger and require more energy to break, leading to higher bond energy.
Which one of the following cultivation is related to Floriculture?
  • Cultivation of Vegetables and Fruits
  • Cultivation and Study of Ornamental Flowers
  • Cultivation of crops
  • None of these
Explanation: Floriculture is indeed a branch of biology focused on the cultivation and study of ornamental flowers and plants. It encompasses various aspects, including the breeding, growing, and marketing of flowers and decorative plants.
Downy mildew disease is caused by which of the following?
  • Fungus
  • Bacteria
  • Virus
  • None of these
Explanation: Downy mildew disease is caused by a fungus. Specifically, it is caused by various species of the Oomycete group, which are fungal-like organisms. These pathogens affect a range of plants, leading to characteristic symptoms such as yellowing and downy growth on the undersides of leaves.
Which of the following is not a type of fertilization?
  • Porogamy
  • Explanation: Plant fertilization, the types are: Porogamy: Fertilization occurs through the micropyle (the opening of the ovule). Chalazogamy: Fertilization occurs through the chalaza (the base of the ovule). Mesogamy: Fertilization occurs through the middle of the ovule. Gynogamy is not a recognized type of fertilization in plants.
