The S.I unit of mass is ___________.

  1. kilogram

  2. gram

  3. decigram

  4. milligram


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The S.I unit of mass is kilogram (kg).


Hence the correct option is A.

Our body temperature is maintained at :

  1. ${20 ^ 0C }$

  2. ${41 ^0 C}$

  3. ${37 ^0 C}$

  4. ${11^0 C}$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Our body temperature is maintained at $37^\circ C$ or $98^\circ F$ on an average. Our body has thermo-regulation mechanism that keeps the body at optimum operating temperature. Water plays an important role in this mechanism.

The SI unit for force is:

  1. Torr

  2. Newton

  3. Joule

  4. Dyne


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Force is the product of mass and acceleration

 $\therefore$ Force $=$ Mass $\times$ acceleration
The S.I unit of force is $kg.m/s^2$ or Newton
 $1$ Newton $= 10^5$ Dyne

Option $B$ is the correct answer.

What is the S.I unit of volume?

  1. cubic centimeter

  2. cubic meter

  3. cubic foot

  4. cubic millimeter


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The S.I unit of volume is cubic meter $(m^3)$.


Hence the correct option is B.

The S.I. unit of temperature is:

  1. kelvin

  2. celsius

  3. fahrenheit

  4. None of the above


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The SI unit of temperature is kelvin.

What is the physical state of water at $30^{\circ} C$?

  1. Solid

  2. Liquid

  3. Gas

  4. None of the above


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Water at $30^{\circ}C$ is liquid and it remains in liquid state from $0^{\circ}C$ to $100^{\circ}C$.

Convert $-273^oC$ to Kelvin scale.

  1. 0 K

  2. 273 K

  3. 300 K

  4. 5 K


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

To convert from the Celsius scale to the Kelvin scale, we add $273$ to the Celsius scale. So, $-273+273=0\ K$


Hence, the correct option is $A$

The S.I. unit of length is:

  1. metre

  2. kilometre

  3. foot

  4. yard


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The S.I. unit of length is metre.

The atmospheric pressure at sea level is:

  1. 1 atm

  2. 10 atm

  3. 100 atm

  4. 1 pascal


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure at sea level is 1 atm.

Convert $100^oC$ to kelvin :

  1. $273$

  2. $373$

  3. $473$

  4. $573$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The formula for conversion of centigrade unit to kelvin is :


$T(K)= T(^oC) + 273$


 $T(K)=100+273$

$=373K$

Option (B) is correct.
