PHYSICS XI Ch#1 Quiz 2

  1. 1 If P is the momentum of an object of mass m, then the expression (P^2/2m) has base units identical to

    1. Energy
    2. Force
    3. Power
    4. Velocity
    Correct!
    Wrong!

    Energy

    As E=P^2/2m (where E is energy)

    which shows that given expression is equal to energy so it has identical units to energy.

  2. 2 By increasing the number of measurements in an experiment, the error in the measurements?

    1. Increases
    2. Decreases
    3. Remain same
    4. None of these
    Correct!
    Wrong!

    Decreases

  3. 3 The least count of an instrument is 0.01 cm. Taking all precautions, the most possible error in the measurement can be

    1. 0.02 cm
    2. 0.01 cm
    3. 0.005 cm
    4. 0.001 cm
    Correct!
    Wrong!

    0.01 cm

    As

    Absolute uncertainty=least count

    So most possible error is equal to least count.

  4. 4 The length of is measured with a rod calibrated in millimeters. Which of the following is the correct expression for length, keeping in view the experimental error.

    1. (20.0 - 0.5) cm to (20.0 + 0.5) cm
    2. (20.0 - 0.05) cm to (20.0 + 0.05) cm
    3. (20.0 - 0.1) cm to (20.0 + 0.1) cm
    4. (20.0 - 0.01) cm to (20.0 + 0.01) cm
    Correct!
    Wrong!

    (20.0 - 0.1) cm to (20.0 + 0.1) cm

    As

    Absolute uncertainty=least count=1 mm=0.1 cm

    So, measurement with possible uncertainty (error) can be written as (20.0 - 0.1) cm to (20.0 + 0.1) cm

  5. 5 Error in measurement of radius is 1%. The error in calculated value of volume of sphere will be?

    1. 1%
    2. 5%
    3. 7%
    4. 3%
    Correct!
    Wrong!

    3%

  6. 6 In multiplication and division of measurement,

    1. Percentage uncertainties are added up
    2. Absolute uncertainties are added up
    3. Percentage uncertainties are divided
    4. Absolute uncertainties are divided
    Correct!
    Wrong!

    Percentage uncertainties are added up

  7. 7 Zero error is the example of

    1. Personal error
    2. Random error
    3. Systematic error
    4. None of these
    Correct!
    Wrong!

    Systematic error

    Zero error can be present due to faults in measuring instrument, so it is Systematic error.

    Poor calibration is also referred as Systematic error.

  8. 8 The diameter of a cylinder is measured with vernier callipers having least count of 0.01 cm. The diameter is 1.95 cm. The radius of cylinder to the correct significant figures will be:

    1. 0.975 cm
    2. 0.97 cm
    3. 0.9 cm
    4. None of these
    Correct!
    Wrong!

    The correct answer is 0.98 cm.

  9. 9 The unit of energy is _____ and its symbol is:

    1. Joule , j
    2. Joule , J
    3. joule , j
    4. None of these
    Correct!
    Wrong!

    The correct answer is ( joule , J )

    Full name of unit does not begin with a capital letter even it us named after a scientist, so we write joule in units with first letter small.

    And as it is named after a scientist so its symbol is written in capital letter i.e. J .

  10. 10 The angular frequency is measured in radian per seconds ( rad s^-1) . Its dimensions in length are:

    1. -2
    2. -1
    3. 1
    4. 0
    Correct!
    Wrong!

    0

    As radian is dimensionless quantity so angular frequency has no dimensions in length.

    Hey! This post couldn’t be written any better! Reading through this post reminds me of

    Thank you for sharing!

    Howdy would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with?
    I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a hard time choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and
    I’m looking for something completely unique.
    P.S Apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!
