Question #1 Report Error
A lactometer operates on the principle of:
A. Newton's Law of Viscosity
B. Archimedes' Principle
C. Bernoulli's Theorem
D. Pascal's Law

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
A lactometer is a specific type of hydrometer used to test the purity of milk by measuring its relative density. All hydrometers, including lactometers, work on Archimedes' Principle of buoyancy. They float at a depth that depends directly on the density of the liquid; they sink deeper in less dense liquids (like milk heavily diluted with water).

Question #2 Report Error
A 50 kg man climbs 30 steps each 20 cm high in 10 s. His power (g=10 m/s²) is
A. 150 W
B. 300 W
C. 30 W
D. 600 W

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Total height = 30 × 0.2 m = 6 m. Work done = mgh = 50 × 10 × 6 = 3000 J. Power = Work/time = 3000/10 = 300 W. If steps height and number given, calculate total vertical displacement. Time taken for climbing is important. Power is rate of doing work.

AC RMS value defined for equivalent:
A. Voltage
B. Magnetic field
C. Heating effect
D. Charge flow

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
I_rms defined so I_rms²R = average power, same heating as DC current. For sine wave: I_rms = I₀/√2. Memory tip: 'RMS: heating equivalence; use RMS for power calculations'. AC fundamentals frequently tested in competitive exams.
