Which of the three forms of equal amounts of water has the highest energy?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
SteamAmong
the same amount of water, steam and ice, steam contains most of the power and
ice contains least of the power. Vapor molecules move frequently and add power
with its intrinsic kinetic energy. Whereas, the molecules of ice remain still
and doesn’t have any kinetic energy. So, steam has the highest energy and ice
has the lowest energy.

The road to climb the mountain is made by turning around the mountain because _______ .
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
Climbing the hill steeply requires more force and more energyThe
road to climb the mountain is made by turning around the mountain as this
circular road creates smallest angle with the mountain resulting in less effort
to climb. The less the angle, the more the length of road with sloping floor. Such
a road lefts less force and less energy to climb.
63

Answer:
Steam engineThe steam turbine is the most efficient engine and for this reason steam
turbine is universally used for electrical generation
64
_________ flows through telephone lines.
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
ElectricityThe electric energy travels along the phone
wires and is converted back into acoustic energy at the receiving end. Indeed, the telephone system converts
acoustic energy (sound) into electric energy.
65

67
Which of the following is the source of renewable energy?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
Solar energyThe energy derived from natural sources that are replenished at a higher rate than they are consumed is renewable energy. Sunlight, water flow and wind are such types of sources that are constantly being replenished.
68
Electric energy of an electrical hour is converted into _________ .
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
Sound powerWhen electric energy converts into sound through a medium,
it is called sound power.
69
Which type of energy is stored in the stagnant water during the generation of hydropower by damming the river?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
Potential energyAny stable object, accumulating energy for its stagnation,
is known as potential energy. Any object in a stable state slowly accumulates
static energy. When the water is blocked by a dam in the river, the potential
energy is mainly accumulated as a result of the increase in the height of the
water basin. Potential energy is converted into kinetic energy when water
falls. Potential Energy = weight of object

What is the unit of power?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer & Solution
Answer:
WattPower is
the quantity of energy transferred or converted per unit time. In the International System
of Units, the
unit of power is the watt, which is equal to one joule per second. The Watt, is
named after the name of James Watt, a Scottish
inventor.
