The alliance began to form in 1936. First, on October 15, 1936 Germany and Italy signed a friendship treaty that formed the Rome-German Axis. It was after this treaty that Italian dictator Benito Mussolini used the term Axis to refer to their alliance. Shortly after this, on November 25, 1936, Japan and Germany both signed the Anti-Comintern Pact, which was a treaty against communism.

A
Italy

B
Greece

C
France

D
Spain

Solution

Independence was finally granted by the Treaty of Constantinople in July 1832 when Greece (Hellas) was recognized as a free country. The Greeks were the first of the subject peoples of the Ottoman Empire to secure recognition as a sovereign power.
Question 10
1 / -0

Which of the following came to be seen as a symbol of the struggle against Russian dominance in Poland in the 1830s?

A
Regional nationalist music in plays and opera

B
Use of Polish language for religious instruction and during church gatherings

C
Boycott of Russian made goods

D
Boycott of Russian language in schools and official correspondence

Solution

This is correct. Polish was forced out of schools after Russian occupation. But Polish language was used in Church gatherings and was used for religious instruction. This became the symbol of struggle against Russian dominance.
Question 11
1 / -0

What value must the resistor R₁ have in order that the resistance between the terminals A and B is R?

A

B

C

D

Solution

Resultant of R and R₁ is in parallel with other resistor R.
Resultant of R and R₁= R + R₁
This is in parallel with R.
Question 12
1 / -0

If the magnetic field in a region is represented by diverging or converging closely-spaced field lines, the magnetic field is

A
uniform and weak

B
uniform and strong

C
non-uniform and weak

D
non-uniform and strong

Solution

If the magnetic field in a region is represented by closely-spaced field lines, then the magnetic field is strong. Also, if the region is represented by diverging or converging field lines, the magnetic field can be straight or curved, i.e. non-uniform.
Hence, option (4) is correct.
Question 13
1 / -0

A
melting point

B
strength

C
resistivity

D
conductivity

Solution

The utility of a safety fuse in an electric circuit depends on its low melting point.
Question 14
1 / -0

A bicycle moves on a horizontal road with some acceleration. The forces of friction between the road and the front and rear wheels are F₁ and F₂, respectively. Which of the following relations holds true?

A
Both F₁ and F₂ act in the forward direction.

B
Both F₁ and F₂ act in the reverse direction.

C
F₁ acts in the forward direction, whereas F₂acts in the reverse direction.

D
F₂ acts in the forward direction, whereas F₁acts in the reverse direction.

Solution

When a bicycle moves forward, the torque is applied to the rear wheel of the bicycle by chain gear system. Because of this, the slipping tendency of the point of contact of the rear wheel is backwards. Hence, the force of friction which opposes the motion acts in the forward direction. The opposite is the case with the front wheel. It tends to move forward. Hence, the friction F₁ acts in the reverse direction.
Question 15
1 / -0

A 40 kg slab rests on a frictionless floor. A 10 kg block rests on top of the slab. The static coefficient of friction between the block and the slab is 0.60, while the kinetic coefficient is 0.40. The 10 kg block is acted upon by a horizontal force of 100 N. If g = 9.8 m/s², the resulting acceleration of the slab will be

A
0.98 m/s²

B
1.47 m/s²

C
1.52 m/s²

D
6.1 m/s²

Solution

Force acting on the block is 100 N. It is much greater than μ_s mg (= 0.6 × 10 × 9.8 = 58.8).

Hence, μ_k will prevail a force balance on the 10 kg block. Here, m is the mass of the block.

mass of slab = M = 40 Kg
The force with which the slab will move will be μ_k mg.
Hence, μ_k mg = Ma
0.4 × 10 × 9.8 = 40 × a
a = 0.98 m/s²
