S1. Ans.(a)
Sol. Telephone exchange was invented by Tivadar Puskas.
S2. Ans.(b)
Sol. Two Positive charges will repel to each other so the force will decrease between two positive charge.
S3. Ans.(d)
Sol. A Seismometer is an instrument that measures motion of the ground, caused by, for example, an earthquake, a volcanic eruption, or the use of explosives.
S4.Ans.(d)
Sol. Nylon is an artificial fibre. It has high tensile strength, stiffness, excellent heat deflection temperature, and superior abrasion and wear resistance. Nylon thread is actually stronger than a steel wire.
S5.Ans.(a)
Sol. Electroplating is the process of plating(depositing) one metal onto another by means of electricity, most commonly for decorative purposes or to prevent corrosion of a metal.
S6. Ans.(b)
Sol. In the convection process, heat is transferred in the liquid and gases from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature. Convection heat transfer occurs partly due to the actual movement of molecules or due to the mass transfer.
S7. Ans.(b)
Sol. Silver react with Hydrogen Sulphide in air to form Silver Sulphide. This is corrosion of silver.
S8. Ans.(b)
Sol. Pulses are rich sources of proteins.
S9. Ans.(a)
Sol. The plant cell wall is composed of cellulose. Cellulose is a structural carbohydrate and is considered a complex sugar because it is used in both protection and structure.
S10. Ans.(c)
Sol. Mycology is the branch of biology concerned with the study of fungi, including their genetic and biochemical properties, their taxonomy and their use to humans.
