Weekly Quiz Competition

Question 1
1 / -0

Use the following information to answer the next question.

A ___I___thermometer has a temperature range of ___II___.

The information in which alternative completes the given statement?

A

I II

laboratory 37°C − 57°C

B

I II

clinical 35°C − 42°C

C

I II

clinical 25°C − 45°C

D

I II

laboratory 40°C − 140°C

Solution

A clinical thermometer is used to measure the temperature of the human body. Since the average body temperature is 37°C, the temperature of the human body does not go above 42°C or below 35°C. Hence, a clinical thermometer has a temperature range of 35 − 42°C.
Question 2
1 / -0

How many minutes are there in a solar day?

A
24 min

B
60 min

C
1440 min

D
3600 min

Solution

One mean solar day has 24 hours, and one hour has 60 minutes.

∴One mean solar day has 24 × 60 = 1440 min.
Question 3
1 / -0

Beam balance is used to measure

A
weight

B
force

C
density

D
mass

Solution

Beam balance is used to measure the mass of an object by comparing it with a standard mass.
Question 4
1 / -0

Use the following information to answer the next question.

The length of a long rod is measured first by using pace-span and then, by using foot-span of a person. For the person, the length of one pace-span is four times the length of one foot-span.

If the length of the rod is 6 pace-spans, then what is the length of the rod in terms of foot-span?

A
4

B
6

C
18

D
24

Solution

It is given that the length of one pace-span is four times the length of one foot-span. Therefore, 1 pace-span = 4 foot-spans.

Also, it is given that the length of the rod is 6 pace-spans.

Hence, 6 pace-spans = (4×6) = 24 foot-spans.

Hence, the length of the rod in terms of the foot-span is 24.
Question 5
1 / -0

Which of the following tools can be used to measure length?

A
Ruler

B
Beam balance

C
Thermometer

D
Magnifying glass

Solution

A ruler is a straight strip made of plastic, glass, or wood that has markings on it. It is mainly used to measure length.

The correct answer is A.

Why alternative B is wrong:

A beam balance is used to compare the masses of two objects.

Why alternative C is wrong:

The temperature of a body is measured by using a thermometer.

Why alternative D is wrong:

A magnifying glass is used to observe small objects.
Question 6
1 / -0

Which of the following is incorrect regarding temperature?

A
Temperature is measured using thermometer.

B
Temperature is degree of hotness of a body.

C
Temperature has same unit as of heat.

D
SI unit of temperature is kelvin (K).

Solution

Temperature is degree of hotness or coldness of a body, hotter bodies have higher temperatures than the colder bodies and and it is measured by thermometer. Its SI unit is kelvin(K). SI unit of heat is joule (J).
Question 7
1 / -0

Which of the following units is not used to measure time?

A
Day

B
Hour

C
Second

D
Light year

Solution

Light year is a unit of distance. One light year is the distance traveled by light in vacuum in one year. Hence Light year is not used to measure time.
Question 8
1 / -0

Which of the following clocks/watches is used for measuring a very short interval of time?

A
Sand clock

B
Stop watch

C
Wrist watch

D
Pendulum clock

Solution

Stopwatches are used in laboratories and sports meets (swimming, racing) etc. for the measurement of short time intervals. It can measure the fraction of a second. The minimum time given by it is 0.01 s.
Question 9
1 / -0

The length of an electric grid pole is 10.64 m. What is the length of the grid pole in a unit of mm?

A
0.1064 mm

B
0.01064 mm

C
1.064 × 10⁴ mm

D
1.064 × 10⁵ mm

Solution

Length of the electric grid pole, l = 10.64 m

It is known that 1 m = 1000 mm

∴l = 10.64 m = 10.64 × 1 m = 10.64 × 1000 mm = 10640 mm = 1.064 × 10⁴ mm

Therefore, the length of the grid pole is 1.064 × 10⁴ mm.
