Question #1
In the equation F = ma, if mass is doubled and acceleration is halved, force becomes
A. Four times
B. Same
C. Double
D. Half

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
F = m×a. New force F' = (2m)×(a/2) = m×a = F. So force remains unchanged. This is direct proportionality. Understand the relationship: doubling mass doubles force, halving acceleration halves it, net effect no change.

Question #2
The heating element of a heater is made of nichrome because it has
A. Low resistivity, high melting point
B. Low resistivity, low melting point
C. High resistivity, high melting point
D. High resistivity, low melting point

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Nichrome high resistivity generates more heat, high melting point avoids melting at high temperature.

Question #3
A conductor has resistance 4 Ω at 0°C and temperature coefficient α. At what temperature will resistance be 6 Ω? (α=0.004 /°C)
A. 125°C
B. 100°C
C. 75°C
D. 150°C

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
R_t = R₀(1+α t). 6 = 4(1+0.004 t) => 1.5 = 1+0.004t => 0.5=0.004t => t=125°C.
