Question #1
An electric iron draws 5 A at 220 V. Its power is
A. 1100 W
B. 2200 W
C. 44 W
D. 550 W

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
P = V×I = 220 × 5 = 1100 W = 1.1 kW. Energy consumed in 2 hours = 2.2 kWh. Simple.

Question #2
A piece of ice floats in water with 1/10 of its volume above water. The density of ice is
A. 0.5 g/cm³
B. 0.9 g/cm³
C. 1.0 g/cm³
D. 0.8 g/cm³

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Fraction of volume submerged = ρ_ice / ρ_water. If 1/10 above, 9/10 submerged. So ρ_ice/ρ_water = 9/10 => ρ_ice = 0.9 g/cm³. Density of ice is 0.9 g/cm³.

Question #3
The force on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field is maximum when the conductor is
A. Parallel to field
B. At 45°
C. Perpendicular to field
D. At 60°

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
F = BIL sinθ. Maximum when θ = 90° (sin90°=1), so perpendicular. Parallel (θ=0°) force zero. This is the motor effect, used in electric motor.
