The SI unit of temperature is
A. Celsius
B. Reaumur
C. Fahrenheit
D. Kelvin

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
SI base unit of thermodynamic temperature is kelvin (K). Celsius is derived unit, size 1°C = 1 K. Fahrenheit and Reaumur are other scales. Kelvin scale starts at absolute zero.

Question #2
The process of a solid changing directly into gas is
A. Melting
B. Condensation
C. Sublimation
D. Evaporation

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Sublimation: solid → gas. Example: dry ice (CO₂), camphor. Deposition is reverse (gas → solid). Melting solid → liquid, evaporation liquid → gas.

Question #3
The slope of a displacement-time graph for uniform motion is
A. Velocity
B. Zero
C. Acceleration
D. Displacement

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Displacement-time graph slope = Δx/Δt = average velocity. For uniform motion, velocity constant, graph is a straight line, slope equals velocity. Acceleration would be slope of velocity-time graph. Thus, slope represents velocity. Exam trick: slope of x-t graph gives instantaneous velocity.
