Which of the following charge is/are possible

(1) 3 x 10-19 C

1. (2) 6.4 x 10-20 C

(3) 3μ C

(4) 6.4 nano C

A. 2,3,4 B. 2,4 C. 3,4 D. 4

Answer:
c
Answer Explanation:

Charge can only exist as an integral multiple of e

There are three spheres named as A,B,C. If A attracts B and B attracts C then charge on C can be (charge on
2.
A is positive)

A. negative only B. neutral or negative C. positive or negative or neutral

D. data is insufficient to reach any conclusion

Answer:
c
Answer Explanation:

As A(+) attracts B it means B can be negative or nuetral.

If B is negative and attracts C then C can be +ve or neutral and if B is neutral and attracts C then C can be positive as well.

A table-tennis ball which has been covered with a conducting paint is suspended
3. by a silk thread so that it hangs between two metal plates. One plate is earthed.
When the other plate is connected to a high voltage generator, the ball

A. Is attracted to the high voltage plate and stays there

B. Hangs without moving


C. Swings backward and forward hitting each plate in turn

D. None of these

Answer:
c
Answer Explanation:

The table tennis ball when slightly displaced say towards the positive plate gets
attracted towards the positive plate due to induced negative charge on its near
surface.
The ball touches the positive plate and itself gets positively charged by the process
of conduction from the plate connected to high voltage generator. On getting
positively charged it is repelled by the positive plate and therefore the ball touches
the other plate (earthed), which has negative charge due to induction. On touching
this plate, the positive charge of the ball gets neutralized and in turn the ball shares
negative charge of the earthed plate and is again repelled from this plate also, and
this process is repeated again and again.
Here it should be understood that since the positive plate is
connected to high voltage generator, its potential and hence its charge will always
remain same, as soon as this plate gives some of its charge to ball, excess charge
flows from generator to the plate, and an equal negative charge is always induced
on the other plate.

In 1 gm of a solid, there are 5 ´ 1021 atoms. If one electron is removed from


4. everyone of 0.01% atoms of the solid, the charge gained by the solid is (given
that electronic charge is 1.6 x 10–19 C)

A. + 0.08 C B. + 0.8 C C. – 0.08 C D. – 0.8 C

Answer:
a
Answer Explanation:

To calculate charge, we will apply formula Q = ne for this, we must have number of
electrons. Here, number of electrons n=.01 % of 5 ´ 1021

i.e. = 5 ´ 1017

So Q = 5 ´ 1017 ´ 1.6 ´ 10–19 = 8 ´ 10–2 = 0.08 C


Since electrons have been removed, charge will be positive i.e. Q = + 0.08 C

5. The electric charge in uniform motion produces

A. An electric field only B. A magnetic field only C. Both electric and magnetic field

D. Neither electric nor magnetic field

Answer:
c
Answer Explanation:

(c) A movable charge produces electric field and magnetic field both.

6. If in an elementry experiments charges are found as 12q, 54q, 72q, 93q etc the largest qunata of charge should have
been

A. 12q B. 3q C. 93q D. q

Answer:
b
Answer Explanation:

largest quanta is the H.C.F of the charges found in the experiment

7. A glass rod rubbed with silk is used to charge a gold leaf electroscope and the leaves are observed to diverge. The
electroscope thus charged is exposed to X-rays for a short period. Then
A. The divergence of leaves will not be affected B. The leaves will diverge further

C. The leaves will diverge less D. The leaves will melt

Answer:
b
Answer Explanation:

(b) Charge on glass rod is positive, so charge on gold leaves will also be positive. Due to X-rays, more electrons from
leaves will be emitted, so leaves becomes more positive and diverge further.

Five balls numbered 1 to 5 are suspended using separate threads. Pairs (1, 2), (2, 4) and
8. (4, 1) show electrosta c a rac on, while pair (2, 3) and (4, 5) show repulsion. Therefore
ball 1 must be

A. Posi vely charged B. Nega vely charged C. Neutral D. Made of metal

Answer:
c
Answer Explanation:

Since 1 does not enter the list of repulsion, it is just possible that it may not be having any
charge. Moreover, since ball no. 1 is being attracted by 2 and 4 both. So 2 and 4 must be
similarly charged, but it is also given that 2 and 4 also attract each other. So 2 and 4 are
certainly oppositely charged.
Since 1 is a rac ng 2, either 1 or 2 must be neutral but since 2 is already in the list of balls
repelling each other, it necessarily has some charge, similarly 4 must have some charge. It
means that though 1 is a rac ng 2 and 4 it does not have any charge.

(Copper is a be er electrical conductor than aluminium)

A. Zero B. Greater than in copper C. Equal to that in copper D. Less than in copper
Answer:

C. work function of A is equall to that of B D. no conclusion can be drawnfrom given information

Answer:
a
Answer Explanation:

more the work function lesser is the tendency to loose electron and greater is the tendency to gain electron.

11. How many protons is contained in 500 cc of water-

A. 6 × 1027 B. 1.67 × 1026 C. 6 × 1027 D. 1.67 × 1023

Answer:
b
Answer Explanation:

No. of moles in 500cc or 500g of water = 500/18

protons in one water molecule = 10

so total no.of electrons = (500/18) x NA x 10

Consider three spheres named as A,B,C. Sphere A carries a charge +3Q , sphere B
carries a charge -7Q and there is no charge on sphere C. Spheres A and B are touched
12.
together and then separated. Sphere C is then touch to A, separated and then touched
with B then separated. The final charge on spheres C will be

A. - Q B. - 2.5Q C. - 0.5Q D. - 1.5Q


Answer:
d
Answer Explanation:

step 1 - After touching of A and B ⇒ QA = -2Q , and QB = -2Q

step 2 - After touching of A and C ⇒ QA = -1Q , and QC = -1Q

step 3 - After touching of B and C ⇒ QB = -1.5Q , and QC = -1.5Q

If all the elctrons from a sample of 18 kg water is removed then the charge removed,
13.
mass removed is

A. 1.73 x 109 C , 9.86 Kg B. 1.73 x 109 C , 9.86 g C. 1.73 x 106 C , 9.86 g

D. 1.73 x 106 C , 9.86 Kg

Answer:
b
Answer Explanation:

No. of moles in 18Kg of water = 18000/18 = 1000

electrons in one water molecule = 10

so total no.of electrons = 1000 x NA x 10 ⇒ total charge = 1000 x NA x 10 x e and total mass = 1000 x NA x 10 x me

Two types of quarks up and down forms the neutron and proton. If up quark has +2e/3 charge
14. and down has –e/3 charge. Both neutron and proton are made of combina on of three quarks.
Then neutron and proton are made up of respec vely

A. 2down+1up, 2up + 1 down B. 1down+2up, 1up + 2 down C. 3down, 3up

D. 3up, 3down

Answer:
a
Answer Explanation:

let n1 and n2 be the number of up and down quarks used( respectively) in formation of neutron and protons. So n1 +n2 = 3
for neutron n1 x (+2e/3) + n2 x (-1e/3 ) = 0 so n1 = 1 and n2 = 2

for Proton n1 x (+2e/3) + n2 x (-1e/3 ) = +e so n1 = 2 and n2 = 1
