Water Day is observed on ?
  • 23 March
  • 24 March
Explanation:

World Water Day is observed on 22 March annually to raise awareness about the importance of freshwater and the sustainable management of water resources. It promotes global water conservation efforts.

United Nations declared 2019 as ?
  • International Year of Indigenous Languages
  • International Year of Yoga
  • International Year of Water
  • International Year of Family Farming
Explanation:

The United Nations declared 2019 as the International Year of Indigenous Languages to raise awareness about the critical loss of indigenous languages and promote their preservation, revitalization, and support for cultural diversity.

Angle between normal and reflected ray is called as ?
  • Angle of reflection
  • Angle of refraction
  • Angle of incidence
  • None
Explanation:

The angle between the normal and the reflected ray is known as the angle of reflection. According to the law of reflection, this angle is equal to the angle of incidence at the surface.

Splitting of light into its colour is called as ?
  • Inversion
  • Dispersion
  • Reflection
  • None
Explanation:

The splitting of light into its component colors is called dispersion. This phenomenon occurs when light passes through a prism, separating it into colors like red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet.

In Optic nerve, cones and rods are ?
  • Cones- Sensitive to bright light and Rods- Sensitive to dim light
  • Cones- Sensitive to dim light and Rods- Sensitive to dim light
  • Cones- Sensitive to bright light and Rods- Sensitive to bright light
  • None
Explanation:

In the optic nerve, cones are sensitive to bright light and responsible for color vision, while rods are sensitive to dim light, aiding in night vision and detecting motion.

New moon day ?
  • Moon is between the earth and the sun
  • Moon is opposite the earth and the sun
  • Moon is middle in the earth and the sun
  • None
Explanation:

On New Moon Day, the moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, resulting in the moon's illuminated side facing away from Earth, making it virtually invisible in the night sky.

Moon revolves around the Earth takes 27.3 days and Moon rotates his its orbit also takes 27 days. Is this valid statement ?
  • Yes
  • No
  • Explanation:

    The statement is mostly accurate but slightly misleading.

    • Revolves: The Moon takes approximately 27.3 days (specifically 27.322 days) to complete one orbit around the Earth.
    • Rotates: The Moon also takes about 27.3 days to rotate on its axis, which means its rotation period is synchronized with its orbital period.

    So, both revolution and rotation periods are essentially the same, resulting in the same side of the Moon always facing Earth.
