What happens to the pressure of a gas when its volume is decreased at constant temperature?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
Pressure increases
Solution:

According to Boyle’s Law, at constant temperature, the pressure of a gas increases when its volume decreases, as the particles are compressed into a smaller space.

42
What is the main function of a capacitor in an electrical circuit?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
To store magnetic energy
Solution:

A capacitor stores electrical energy in an electric field and can release it when needed. It is used for smoothing voltage fluctuations in circuits.

43
In which type of medium does light travel the slowest?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
Glass
Solution:

Light travels the slowest in glass because it has a higher refractive index compared to air or vacuum.

44
What is the property of a material that allows it to return to its original shape after deformation?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
Elasticity
Solution:

Elasticity is the property of a material to return to its original shape and size after being deformed, such as stretching or compressing.

45
What type of energy does a moving car have?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
Kinetic energy
Solution:

A moving car has kinetic energy because it is in motion, and its energy is proportional to its mass and velocity.

46
What kind of force primarily acts on a rocket during launch?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
Thrust force
Solution:

During a rocket launch, thrust force generated by the rocket's engines is the primary force acting on the rocket, allowing it to overcome gravity and lift off the ground.

47
Which of these is responsible for an airplane's lift?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
The wings
Solution:

The wings of an airplane generate lift due to their shape (airfoil), which causes air to move faster over the top of the wing than underneath, creating lower pressure above and lifting the plane.

48
How do helicopters achieve vertical takeoff and landing?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
By adjusting rotor blade pitch
Solution:

Helicopters can take off and land vertically by adjusting the pitch of their rotor blades, which allows them to generate the necessary lift without needing a runway.

49
Which type of rocket is used to launch satellites into orbit?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
Orbital rocket
Solution:

Orbital rockets are designed to launch payloads such as satellites into space, reaching the required velocity to place them into orbit.

50
What type of engine is commonly used in an aeroplane?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
