Q:

A potentiometer is considered a versatile and accurate device to make an electrical measurement of EMF. Why?

681 0

  • 1
    Because the method involves a combination
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 2
    There are cells involved
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 3
    Because of potential gradients
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 4
    As there is no flow of current through the galvanometer

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 _____

646 0

  • 1
    They cannot transmit data at long distances due to curvature of the earth
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 2
    They are reflected by the atmosphere
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 3
    They are very cheap
    Correct

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.

Answer : 2. "An object under free fall is an example of uniform acceleration."
Explanation :

1. The change in velocity of an object at equal time intervals is called uniform acceleration.

2. A freely falling object is an example of uniform acceleration.

  • 4
    Greater than 1
    Correct
    Wrong
  • Show Answer
  • Workspace

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.
