  • A. Three quarks
  • B. Two quarks
  • C. Two quarks and an anti-quark
  • D. One quark and one anti-quark

Explanation: Baryons are heavy subatomic particles that are made up of three quarks.

Correct answer: Three quarks
  • A. C13
  • B. N15
  • C. F19
  • D. O16

Explanation: The correct answer is O16. O16 has an even number of nucleons (8 protons and 8 neutrons), leading to a nuclear spin quantum number of 0.

Correct answer: O16
  • A. Proton - proton cycle
  • B. Carbon- carbon cycle
  • C. Co-co cycle
  • D. Only A & B

Explanation: So, in the core of the Sun, there are high temperatures and pressures that allow for nuclear fusion to occur.

Correct answer: Only A & B
  • A. 1.00073
  • B. 1.00087
  • C. 1.0073
  • D. 1.0087

Explanation: The relative atomic mass of a neutron is approximately 1.0073 atomic mass units (amu).

Correct answer: 1.0073
  • A. Neutron
  • B. Proton
  • C. Electron
  • D. Positron

Explanation: When one up quark and two down quarks combine, they form a neutron. Neutrons are subatomic particles that are found in the nucleus of…

Correct answer: Neutron
  • A. Smaller
  • B. Greater
  • C. Same
  • D. Infinite

Explanation: The mass of the resultant nucleus is indeed smaller than the sum of the masses of its constituent nucleons.

Correct answer: Greater
  • A. Proton
  • B. Neutrino
  • C. Photon
  • D. Pion

Explanation: A boson is a type of elementary particle that obeys Bose-Einstein statistics. Photons are examples of bosons.

Correct answer: Photon
  • A. F-1=1/4πe0 x q1q2/r2 x r
  • B. F = 1/4πe0 x q1q2/r2 x r
  • C. F-1 = 1/4πe x q1q2/r2 x r
  • D. F = 1/4πe x q1q2/r2 x r

Explanation: According to the expression of coulomb's law, the magnitude of Coulomb's force is directly proportional to the product of two point…

Correct answer: F = 1/4πe0 x q1q2/r2 x r
  • A. Lost electrons
  • B. Lost protons
  • C. Gained protons
  • D. Gained electrons

Explanation: When a neutral body becomes positively charged, it means it has lost electrons.

Correct answer: Lost electrons
  • A. 1042
  • B. 1039
  • C. 1036
  • D. 1

Explanation: d) 1This option suggests that the ratio of the electrostatic force between two protons to that between two electrons is 1.

Correct answer: 1
  • A. 0.16uc
  • B. -0.16uc
  • C. 0.32uc
  • D. -0.32uc

Explanation: The formula used is q (charge) = n x e so q = 1012 x 1.6x10-19 =1.6x10-7=0.16 ucAs it is numerical, it can have only one possible answer.

Correct answer: 0.16uc

Explanation: .A is incorrect since polarity is a separation of electric charge leading to a molecule or its chemical groups having an electric dipole…

Correct answer: Anisotropy
  • A. critical temperature
  • B. absolute temperature
  • C. Curie Temperature
  • D. normal temperature

Explanation: Ferromagnetic MATERIALS can be permanently magnetized. Curie Temperature: The temperature at which the ferromagnetic element starts to…

Correct answer: Curie Temperature
  • A. Amorphous substances have a sharp melting point
  • B. Amorphous substances do not have a fixed melting point
  • C. Amorphous substances have proper geometrical shapes
  • D. The particles in amorphous substances are arranged in an orderly manner

Explanation: Amorphous solids, unlike crystalline solids, do not have a fixed melting point.
