A step-down transformer has turns ratio 10:1. Input voltage 220 V, output voltage is
A. 2200 V
B. 110 V
C. 440 V
D. 22 V
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Vs/Vp = Ns/Np = 1/10 => Vs = 220/10 = 22 V.

Question #1 Report Error
The buoyant force on an object immersed in a fluid depends on
A. Depth of immersion
B. Shape of the container
C. Density of the object
D. Density of the fluid and volume of displaced fluid

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Buoyant force = weight of displaced fluid = ρ_fluid × V_displaced × g. Independent of depth (if fluid incompressible) and object's density, though object density determines if it floats. Shape affects volume displaced when floating.

Question #3 Report Error
A body floats in a liquid with one-third of its volume above the surface. The density of the body relative to the liquid is:
A. 3
B. 3/2
C. 1/3
D. 2/3

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
By Archimedes' principle, weight of body = weight of displaced liquid. Let V be total volume, ρ_b body density, ρ_l liquid density. Volume submerged = (2/3)V. Thus ρ_b·V·g = ρ_l·(2V/3)·g ⇒ ρ_b/ρ_l = 2/3. Fraction submerged equals density ratio. Memory tip: 'Fraction submerged = ρ_object / ρ_fluid'. This direct application of floatation condition is common in competitive exams. Always identify submerged fraction correctly: here 'one-third above' means two-thirds submerged. Such problems test conceptual clarity in buoyancy applications.
