Questions Related to measurement of properties

Name and unit are listed, which is NOT correctly written?

  1. Torr and pressure

  2. Mass and grams

  3. Heat energy and kilopascals

  4. Volume and milliliter

  5. Temperature and Kelvin


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Unit of Heat energy is joule ($J$) not kilopascals. kilopascal is unit for pressure.


Hence the correct option is C.

Convert $48.50mL$ to liters.

  1. $0.4850L$

  2. $4850L$

  3. $0.04850L$

  4. $0.00004850L$

  5. $4.850L$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

We know that the 1 mL is equals to 0.001 L

hence $48.50$ mL is equals to $48.50$ multiplied by $0.001$ which comes $0.04850$ L.
Option C is correct answer.

Unit of J $pa^{-1}$ is equivalent to:

  1. $m^3$

  2. $cm^3$

  3. $dm^3$

  4. none of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

J/Pa =  Work/Pressure =  Nm/Nm-2 = m3

298 K is approximately what temperature in degrees Celsius?

  1. $25^oC$

  2. $24^oC$

  3. $29^oC$

  4. $27^oC$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Zero on the Celsius scale $(0^0C)$ is now defined as the equivalent to $273.15K$, with a temperature difference of $1^0C$ equivalent to a difference of $1K$, meaning the unit size in each scale is the same.

$T _k=T _c+273.15$
$T _k=$Temperature in kelvin.

$T _c=$Temperature in celsius.
$T _c=298-273=25^0C$.Option A is correct.

Prefix giga means:

  1. $10^{-9}$

  2. $10^{9}$

  3. $10^{6}$

  4. $10^{-6}$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The prefix of ${ 10 }^{ -9 }=$ nano

                      ${ 10 }^{ 9 }=$ giga
                      ${ 10 }^{ 6 }=$ mega
                      ${ 10 }^{ -6 }=$ micro
Therefore, $(B)$ is the correct answer.

The prefix of $10^{18}$ is:

  1. giga

  2. exa

  3. kilo

  4. nano

  5. mega


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The prefix of ${ 10 }^{ 3 }=$ kilo

                       ${ 10 }^{ 6 }=$ mega
                       ${ 10 }^{ 9 }=$ giga
                       ${ 10 }^{ 18 }=$ exa
Therefore, the prefix of ${ 10 }^{ 18 }$ is exa

SI unit of energy is: 

  1. $kg\, m^2 s^{-2}$

  2. $kg\, m^{-1} s^{2}$

  3. $kg\, m^2 s^{-1}$

  4. $kg\, m^2 s^{2}$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The power required to do work by the application of force is energy.

Energy has same unit as that of work.
$\therefore$ S.I unit of Energy is $kgm^2 s^{-2}$

Which of the following is the correct unit for measuring nuclear radii?

  1. Micron

  2. Millimetre

  3. Angstrom

  4. Fermi


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

$\text{Nuclear radii are measured in Fermi ie. }$$10^{-15}$

$298 K$ is what temperature in Fahrenheit?

  1. $76.73F$

  2. $80F$

  3. $75F$

  4. $27F$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

${ T } _{ K }={ (T } _{ F }+459.67)\times \frac { 5 }{ 9 } \ \Rightarrow 298={ (T } _{ F }+459.67)\times \frac { 5 }{ 9 } \ \Rightarrow \frac { 298\times 9 }{ 5 } -459.67={ T } _{ F }\ \Rightarrow { T } _{ F }=536.4-459.67={ 76.73 }^{ 0 }F$

The amount of heat energy released when a fuel burns completely is called calorific value.

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Nither

  4. Either


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
$\text{Calorific value= heat released per kg of fule}$

$\text{The amount of heat energy released when a one kilogram of fuel burns completely is called calorific value.}$
