Find the accurate expressions.
  1. $E = mc^2$

  2. $E = m/c^2$

  3. $M = Ec^2$

  4. All of the expressions are accurate.

  5. $c = Em^2$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Before Sir Einstien, mass and energy were two completely different physical quantities, which were not related to each other anyway. Sir Einstein told that energy and mass are related to each other i.e. energy and mass can be converted into each other by the following relation:

      $E=mc^{2}$, called Sir Einstein's mass-energy equivalence

Which of the following statement is accurate for an object approaching the speed of light ?
  1. The particle's mass will increase as it approaches the speed of light.

  2. The particle's mass will increase as it approaches, and then decrease when it reaches the speed of light.

  3. The particle's mass will decrease as it approaches the speed of light.

  4. The particle's dimensions will increase but it's mass will remain constant as it approaches the speed of light.

  5. All of the statements are accurate


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The mass of object as observed by a moving observer is given by $m=\dfrac{m _0}{\sqrt{1-(\dfrac{v}{c})^2}}$.

where $m _0$ is the rest mass of the object.

Hence, as speed approaches the speed of light, that is, as $v\rightarrow c$, $m\rightarrow \infty$

The rest energy involved in a mass of one atomic mass unit is _________ eV.

  1. $931$ MeV

  2. $1.6$ eV

  3. $9.3$ MeV

  4. $9.1$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

931 MeV

The mass of 1 amu is equivalent to an energy of 931 MeV. 

The unit of rate constant for a zero order reaction is:

  1. $s^{-1}$

  2. $mol L^{-1}s^{-1}$

  3. $L mol ^{-1}s^{-1}$

  4. $L^{2} mol ^{-2}s^{-1}$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
For zero order reaction
Rate $=K[A]^0$
Rate $=K=\cfrac{d[A]}{dt}$
Unit of rate constant $=Unit\; of \; \cfrac{d[A]}{dt} \\=\cfrac{mol L^{-1}}{sec} \\=mol L^{-1} sec^{-1}$

Which of the following assertions are correct?

  1. A neutron can decay to a proton only inside a nucleus

  2. A proton can change to a neutron only inside a nucleus

  3. An isolated neutron can change into proton

  4. An isolated proton can change into a neutron


Correct Option: B

Inside nucleus, protons are held together though they have the dame charge. Why?

  1. The strong attractive nuclear force far exceeds the electrostatic force between the protons

  2. Neutrons prevent them from repelling from each other

  3. The electrostatic attractive force between an electron and a proton is more than the electrostatic repulsive force between the protons

  4. Gluons are responsible for holding them together


Correct Option: A

The conversion of 1 u of mass results in ________ eV of energy.

  1. $9.315 \times 10^6$

  2. $391.5 \times 10^6$

  3. $931.5 \times 10^6$

  4. $93.15 \times 10^6$


Correct Option: C

Magnitude of mass defect is a measure of ......................... of a nucleus.

  1. Unstability

  2. Stability
