Multiple choice physics energy : forms and sources concept of energy energy for everything forms of energy

If the values of force and length are increased four times then the unit of energy will increases by?

  1. $4$ times
  2. $2$ times
  3. $8$ times
  4. $16$ times
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

 Force is represented as $\left[ ML{ T }^{ -2 } \right] \quad and\quad length\left[ L \right] $

$energy\quad f\times d\quad is\left[ ML{ T }^{ -2 } \right] \quad \times \left[ L \right] =\left[ M{ L }^{ 2 }{ T }^{ -2 } \right] $
 if Force and length are quadrupled in value Energy
$4\left[ ML{ T }^{ -2 } \right] \quad \times 4\left[ L \right] =16\left[ M{ L }^{ 2 }{ T }^{ -2 } \right] $
unit increased by 16 times

In geothermal plants steam is raised by pumping water upto the layer of magma.                           .......................

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Ambiguous

  4. Data insufficient
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The most common way of capturing the energy from geothermal sources is to tap into naturally occurring 'hydrothermal convection' systems, where cooler water seeps into Earth's crust, is heated up, and then rises to the surface. Once this heated water is forced to the surface, it is a relatively simple matter to capture that steam and use it to drive electric generators. Geothermal power plants drill their own holes into the rock to more effectively capture the steam.
Hence, the statement is true.

A mercury drop of water has potential 'V' on its surface. $1000$ such drops combine to form a new drop. Find the potential on the surface of the new drop.

  1. V
  2. $10$V
  3. $100$V
  4. $1000$V
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Potential of single smaller Hg drop of water =$\dfrac{Kq}{r}$=V-----(1)

and we know potential of n smaller Hg drop of water $=\dfrac{Knq}{R}$------(2)
Volume of 1000 small drops = volume of larger drop
$1000\dfrac{4}{3}\pi {r}^{3}=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi {R}^{3}$
Thus radius of bigger droplet $R=10r$
 Now putting the value of R in equation 2 we get
Potential of larger drop$=\dfrac{1000Kq}{10r}$=$100V$

The principle behind the working of an atom bomb is:

  1. Nuclear fussion

  2. Nuclear fission

  3. Radioactivity

  4. None of these
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Nuclear fission

 The atom bomb , also known as atomic bomb or fission bomb is an explosive device  that derives its destructive force from the fission of heavy elements. Typical fuel for the fission reaction within the bomb is either uranium or plutarium.

 The World Nuclear Association considers used fuel management to be sustainable if it meets the following key criteria:

  1. It covers all the steps of used fuel management from the generation of used fuel up to and including final disposal in accordance with a well defined practical plan.

  2. It proves to be feasible with a sustainable impact level.

  3. It protects human health and the environment and has no greater impact on the health of future generations than is allowed today.

  4. It is able to demonstrate to a practicable extent that it is technically and economically viable.

  5. All of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
E Correct answer
Explanation

E

The world Nuclear Association considers used fuel management to be sustainable if it meets certain criteria. The criteria includes the covering of all the steps of the used fuel management upto the final disposal with high feasibility. It must protect human health and environment without creating any impact for future generation.
