A. 180°
B.
C. 45°
D. 90°
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
W = Fd cosθ, cos90° = 0, so work zero. e.g., coolie carrying load horizontally.

Question #1 Report Error
A pressure cooker reduces cooking time because
A. It absorbs more heat
B. High pressure increases boiling point
C. More water is used
D. Low pressure decreases boiling point

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Higher pressure raises boiling point, so water can reach temperatures above 100°C, cooking food faster. At high altitudes, pressure cooker compensates for lower atmospheric pressure.

Question #2 Report Error
A 60 W bulb is used for 5 hours daily. How much electrical energy is consumed by the bulb in 30 days?
A. 9 kWh
B. 0.9 kWh
C. 900 kWh
D. 90 kWh

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Electrical energy (E) = Power (P) × Time (t). Power = 60 W = 0.06 kW. Time per day = 5 hours. Total time in 30 days = 5 × 30 = 150 hours. Energy = 0.06 kW × 150 h = 9 kWh (or 9 units of electricity). One kWh is the commercial unit of energy.
