<h3>
Important Physics GK Questions and answers for preparing competitive examinations.</h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>1. When we step out of sunlight into a room, we cannot see clearly for some time. Why? </b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. Iris controls the amount of light entering our eyes. When we are in sunlight the iris contracts the size of the pupil so that a minimum of light should enter our eyes as per the requirement. When we come to a room, the demand for light increases but the pupil takes some time to expand. Therefore, during this interval we cannot see clearly.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>2. Ozone is found in the upper layer of atmosphere. Why?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. The ultraviolet radiations coming from the sun, convert the oxygen present in the upper layer of the atmosphere into ozone. Since ozone has the property of screening ultraviolet rays, they are not able to come down further and form ozone in the lower layers of atmosphere.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>3. Why is red colour chosen for the danger signals?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. Red colour can penetrate through haze, mist, and frost. It is also more easily visible from a great distance. Hence the danger signals are always red as used on road crossing and on railways.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>4. Why are ice-boxes made double-walled?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. The space between the two walls of the box has vacuum so that, convection and conduction do not take place and therefore, heat cannot enter from outside. Hence, iceboxes are double walled.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>5. Why do railway lines appear to converge at a distance, although their actual width is the same everywhere?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. The apparent size of an object depends upon the size of the image formed on the retina of our eye. This image further depends upon the visual angle which is the angle subtended by the object at the eye. This angle goes on decreasing as the object is taken farther from the eye and vice versa. With the decrease of visual angle, the size of the image also appears to be diminished. For this reason, the railway lines appear to converge at a distance.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>6. Why does a tennis ball bounce higher on hills than on plains? </b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. When the ball bounces up, the force of gravity tries to pull it down. Since the value of ‘g’ is comparatively less at the hills than in plains, the tennis ball can bounce higher on a hill.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>7. How does a submarine float and sink as desired?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. The submarine has a chamber in which water can be filled in or pumped out as required. To make it sink into the water, the chamber is filled with water so that its weight exceeds the upthrust produced on the submarine by the displaced water. To bring the submarine up the water in the chamber is pumped out. Now the up thrust produced by the displaced water is greater than or equal to the weight of submarine and hence it can float.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>8. When a mango tree is shaken, why do mangoes fall down?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. At first, the tree and these mangoes both are in the state of rest. When the tree is shaken, according to Newton’s first law of motion, the mangoes tend to continue in the state of rest although the branches go in motion. The result is that the tension in the supporting twig increases due to which is breaks and hence the mangoes fall down.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>9. Why does a straight stick look bent when partly immersed in water?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. When a stick is partly immersed in water, the rays of light starting from the lower end of the stick after travelling through the water strike the surface of separation (water and air) and bend away from the normal because air is an optically rarer medium. Thus, the rays appear to diverge from a point higher than the actual position. Hence, when the stick is viewed from above the surface of the vessel or from the side through the water in the glass vessel, it appears to be broken at the surface of separation of water and air.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>10. Explain why a mercury fluorescent lamp of same power gives more light than a filament lamp?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. The inner part of mercury fluorescent lamp is coated with magnesium tungstate and zinc beryllium silicate. The mercury light produced by electric discharge contains a number of ultraviolet rays which are invisible. When these rays fall on the inner walls of the lamp magnesium tungstate produces blue fluorescence, while zinc beryllium silicate produces yellow orange fluorescence. The mixture of these two fluor spar produces white light. Such a process does not take place in filament lamps. Hence a mercury fluorescent lamp having same power produces nore light than a filament lamp.<br>

Physics GK bits for Competitive Examinations

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Physics General Knowledge Questions and Answers for all Competitive Examinations.</h3>
<br>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>1. How do we see colours?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. The retina of the eye has a large number of cells which are sensitive to light. These cells are of two shapes — rods and cones. The rod shaped cells are sensitive to the intensity of light, i.e. these cells respond to the degree of brightness or darkness of the light. The cone shaped cells are sensitive to the colour of light. They respond differently to lights of different colours.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>2. Why does a dentist use a concave mirror to examine the teeth of a patient?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. A concave mirror converges light on the teeth and the dentist can see the affected tooth clearly.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>3. Can a liquid be evaporated and solidified at the same time? If so, how?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. Yes, it is possible to evaporate a liquid and also to solidify it at the same time. If a liquid is allowed to evaporate continuously it becomes colder and colder as evaporation causes cooling. A stage may reach when the temperature of the liquid may fall below its freezing point and it may solidify.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>4. Why do all places lying on the same parallel of latitude not have the same temperature?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. The temperature of a place does not depend upon its latitude alone. There are other factors also which affect the temperature of a place. These factors include altitude, distance from the sea, the presence of mountains and the type of wind blowing etc.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>5. Is there heat in ice?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. Yes, there is heat in ice. Temperature of ice is 0°C and when it melt,1, it absorbs heat that is known as the latent heat of fusion which is equal to 80 cal/gm. it is due to this heat that ice is not extremely cold.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>6. Why are there usually two separate circuits in a house?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. Usually there are two separate circuits in a house for drawing different currents. The two circuits are the lighting circuit with a 5A fuse and the power circuit with a 15A fuse. The lighting circuit is for running electrical bulbs, tube-lights, fans and radio etc. which draw small current. On the other hand, power circuit is for running electric iron, room heater, electric stove, refrigerator, etc. which draws heavy current.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>7. Explain why it snows on high hills, while it rains lower down?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. The temperature of the atmosphere at higher altitude is generally below the freezing point of water. Hence, the water vapour present in the air at higher altitudes gets converted into snow which collects on the hills. Lower down, the temperature of the atmosphere is above the freezing point of water. Hence, the water vapour is converted into liquid water which comes down as rain in those regions.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>8. A copper wire should never be used as a fuse wire. Why?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. A copper wire should never be used as a fuse wire because a copper wire has a very high melting-point due to which a cooper wire fuse cannot protect the wiring against short - circuiting or overloading.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>9. What causes fog?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. The cause of fog and cloud is the same, because fog is cloud at ground level. When damp air near the ground becomes cold enough for the water vapour present in the atmosphere to condense into droplets of water, then fog and mist occur.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>10. It is advised that one should not stand near an approaching, fast moving train on the railway platform. Why?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. The atmospheric pressure around the fast moving train becomes quite low. If one stands near that train, one may be pushed towards the train by some external force.</div>

General Awareness Questions and Answers 2013

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<br>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Today we are sharing some General awareness Questions and answers. It will be helpful for some competitive examinations.</div>
<br>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. How does a clinical thermometer differ from an ordinary thermometer?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. Clinical thermometer has a constriction near its bulb so that the mercury level is having risen to a height inside the tube, may not fall without being given a jerk and its correct reading may be taken.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. Why do we not see things double with two eyes?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. We do not see double with it no eyes as both images of an object fall on exactly similar parts of the two retinas of the two eyes. The reflection is therefore simultaneous. Hence there is only one vision with two eyes.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. Why does radio reception improve after sunset?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. After sunset no ionising radiations are emitted from the sun so ionosphere which reflects radio waves becomes more stable. This improves radio reception.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. Why do we hear a sound like the roaring of a sea when we hold a sea shell to our ear?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. The curved surface of the sea shell causes reflections of the sound which in turn cause vibrations producing sound like the roar of a sea.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. Why are lubricants used in machines?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. In machines heat is produced due to friction by metal-to-metal contact. Lubrication minimises the heat caused by friction and hence reduces wear and tear of the surface in contact.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
6. The moon is constantly falling towards the earth, but it can never hit the earth. Why?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. According to Newton, moon has just the right speed to keep moving around the earth in a nearly circular orbit. Though it is constantly falling towards the earth it cannot hit the earth because the earth’s surface curves down under it by the same amount.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
7. If a pendulum is taken to the mountain, what will be the effect on its time-period?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. The time-period of the pendulum will increase i.e. it will go slow if it is taken to a mountain because the time period of a pendulum is inversely proportional to the square root of ‘g’, the acceleration due to gravity.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
8. Why is electrical wiring in parallel better?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ans. Electrical wiring in parallel is better because all the lines will have the same potential difference and if one line gets fused the other lines are unaffected.<br>
</div></div>
