Q:

Which part of the flame is the hottest?

A) Blue Zone B) Luminous Zone
C) Dark Zone D) Non - Luminous Zone
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Blue Zone

Explanation:

Blue Zone is the hottest part of the flame that is where the flame has the most Oxygen and you are getting complete combustion. It is about 1400 degrees Centigrades. The Reddish part (Non - Luminous Zone) is the coolest part, about 800 deg C.

Q:

How many bottles of water is a gallon?

A) 16 B) 8
C) 4 D) 2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 8

Explanation:

The easiest way would measure it through half a liter water bottle. There are approximately 16.9 ounces(oz) of water in a 500ml water bottle.

 

Gallon is an imperial customary volume unit for the U.S.

 

As we have previously mentioned, the 16.9oz bottle is also known as 500ml in the metric system. According to U.S. standard, 1 gallon stands for 128 fluid oz.

 

Hence, Number of bottles in 1 gallon = 128/16.9 = 7.57 =~ 8.

Q:

Two metallic wires made from copper have same length but the radius of wire 1 is half of that of wire 2. The resistance of wire 1 is R. If both the wires are joined together in series, the total resistance becomes

 

A) 2R B) R/2
C) 5R/4 D) 3R/4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 5R/4

Explanation:

So, resistance of Wire 2 is R/4 as radius is half of wire 1, so area would be 4 times of wire 1.

Now for resistance in series. R= R1 + R2.

Therefore, Final R= R + R/4 = 5R/4

Q:

Acceptable noise level for human ear

A) > 85 db B) = 85 db
C) < 85 db D) None of the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) < 85 db

Explanation:

Sound intensity or level is measured by a unit called a decibel. An 85 decibel noise level is not a safe standard for the public.

 

Hence, Acceptable noise level for human ear is less than 85 db.

Q:

Electrostatic precipitator is used to control

A) Water pollution B) Noise pollution
C) Air pollution D) Solid waste
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Air pollution

Explanation:

Electrostatic precipitator is used to control Air pollution. An electrostatic precipitator is a filtration device that removes fine particles, like dust and smoke, from a flowing gas using the force of an induced electrostatic charge minimally impeding the flow of gases through the unit.
