Answer : 4. "As there is no flow of current through the galvanometer"
Explanation :
A potentiometer is an accurate and versatile device to make electrical measurements of emf because the method involves a condition of no current flow through the galvanometer, the device can be used to measure potential difference, internal resistance of a cell and compare emf's of two sources. Q.

Answer : 1. "It is halved"
Explanation :
If the observer is moving away from the source ((Figure)), the observed frequency can be found: λs=vTo−voTovTs=(v−vo)Tov(1fs)=(v−vo)(1fo)fo=fs(v−vov).
Q: Most waves used for communication purposes rely on geostationary satellites because _____

Answer : 1. "They cannot transmit data at long distances due to curvature of the earth"
Explanation :
Explanation: Most communication waves cannot transmit data accurately over long distances due to the curvature of the earth. They can only do so in the line of sight. However, they are not reflected by the ionosphere like radio waves and can be relayed to a wide area using geostationary satellites.

- 20false
- 3Less than 1false
- 4Greater than 1false
- Show Answer
- Workspace
- SingleChoice
Answer : 1. "1"
Explanation :
Strong electrolytes have a degree of dissociation close to one, while weak electrolytes have a degree of dissociation less than one. Solvent nature: Solvents with a high dielectric constant show more dissociation. Dilution: As the solution is diluted, the degree of dissociation increases.
