The principle of working of a hydrogen bomb is
A. Nuclear fission
B. Nuclear fusion
C. Chemical explosion
D. Chain reaction
Answer: Option B
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Hydrogen bomb uses uncontrolled fusion of deuterium and tritium triggered by fission bomb. Releases vast energy, thermonuclear reaction. Sun's energy is fusion.

Question #1 Report Error
A metal spoon placed in a hot cup of tea gets hot due to
A. Radiation
B. Evaporation
C. Convection
D. Conduction

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Heat travels through spoon from hot end to cold end by conduction (molecular vibration and free electrons). Handle gets hot. Metal good conductor.

The gravitational force between two masses is F. If the distance between them is halved, the force becomes
A. 2F
B. F/4
C. 4F
D. F/2

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Newton's law of gravitation: F ∝ 1/r². If distance r becomes r/2, new force F' ∝ 1/(r/2)² = 4/r² = 4F. So force quadruples. This inverse square law is fundamental for gravitational, electric, magnetic forces.

If a hollow metal sphere is positively charged, the electric field strictly inside the sphere is:
A. Positive and uniform
B. Depends on the radius
C. Zero
D. Negative and uniform

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
According to Gauss's Law in electrostatics, all excess charge on a conducting body resides entirely on its outer surface. Since there is no net charge enclosed within the hollow interior, the electric flux and consequently the electric field everywhere inside the hollow conducting sphere is exactly zero.
