Question #1 Report Error
Superconductivity characterized by:
A. Zero resistance below T_c
B. High conductivity only
C. Infinite resistance
D. Zero permeability

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Superconductors: zero electrical resistance below critical temperature T_c, plus Meissner effect (expel magnetic fields). Memory aid: 'Superconductor: R=0 below T_c; perfect diamagnetism'. Modern physics concept frequently tested in competitive exams.

Body moving with constant velocity has:
A. Increasing acceleration
B. Variable acceleration
C. Constant acceleration
D. Zero acceleration

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Constant velocity ⇒ no change in speed or direction ⇒ acceleration = dv/dt = 0. Newton's first law: zero net force for constant velocity. Memory tip: 'Constant v ⇒ a = 0; changing v ⇒ a ≠ 0'. Basic kinematics concept frequently tested to verify acceleration-velocity relationship understanding.

Question #3 Report Error
The angle of minimum deviation for a prism depends on:
A. Refractive index only
B. Angle of prism only
C. Both angle of prism and refractive index
D. Wavelength of light only

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Minimum deviation δ_m for a prism: n = sin[(A + δ_m)/2] / sin(A/2), where A is prism angle, n refractive index. Thus δ_m depends on both A and n. Since n varies with wavelength (dispersion), δ_m also depends on wavelength, but the primary dependencies are A and n. Memory tip: 'δ_m increases with A and n; used to measure n'. This optics formula application is frequently tested in competitive exams. Always recall that minimum deviation occurs when ray passes symmetrically through prism, a key condition for derivation.
