S1.Ans.(c)
Sol.The fabrication of the transistor is the process of creating the transistor that is used in electrical and electronics circuit. Transistors are made from very pure silicon or germanium, but certain other semiconductor materials can also be used.
S2. Ans.(a)
Sol. Respiration is the process in which energy is released.
S3. Ans.(a)
Sol. The technique of collecting information about an object from a distance without making physical contact with it, is Remote Sensing.
S4. Ans.(a)
Sol.The Curie (symbol Ci) is a non-SI unit of radioactivity.
S5. Ans.(c)
Sol. Sun generates its energy by nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium.
S6. Ans.(c)
Sol.Strong nuclear force is the strongest force. It is present inside the atom responsible for binding the protons and neutrons and also inside the proton and neutron in binding up the quarks.
S7. Ans.(c)
Sol.Heavy water is basically used as a moderator in nuclear reactors to slow down the neutrons so that they are captured and become effective to bring about the fission reaction.
S8. Ans.(a)
Sol.An electric current is a flow of electric charge which is often carried by moving electrons.
S9. Ans.(a)
Sol.Electric fuse is a protective device which protects electrical equipment in the circuit by breaking the circuit when there is a short circuit.It has low melting point.
S10. Ans.(b)
Sol. A transformer is used to bring voltage up or down in an AC electrical circuit.
S11. Ans.(d)
Sol.Graphite is soft and slippery because there are only weak inter molecular forces between its layers. Graphite is a good conductor of heat and electricity.
S12. Ans.(d)
Sol.Tungsten is used for the manufacture of the filament of an electric bulb due to its high melting point of 3422 °C.
S13. Ans.(a)
Sol.A charged particle moving without acceleration produces an electric as well as a magnetic field.
S14. Ans.(a)
Sol.Silicon is a semiconductor material. When it is doped with the impurities gallium and arsenic its ability to capture the sun’s energy and convert it into electricity. Hence it is used in Solar cells.
S15. Ans.(b)
Sol. Red is used an as emergency or danger signal because it has longest wavelength. It scattered the least by air molecules. The effect of scattering is inversely related to the fourth power of the wavelength of a color. So red light is able to travel the longest distance.
