A thermometer reads 25°C. What is the corresponding temperature in Kelvin? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A thermometer reads 25°C. What is the corresponding temperature in Kelvin?
A. 248 K
B. 273 K
C. 325 K
D. 298 K
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
To convert a temperature from Celsius to Kelvin, the formula is K = °C + 273.15. For most physics problems, we use 273. Therefore, K = 25 + 273 = 298 K. Kelvin is the SI unit of temperature, and it never uses a degree symbol.

Question #1
A body of mass 5 kg moving with velocity 2 m/s collides with a stationary body of mass 3 kg and sticks to it. Combined velocity is
A. 1.25 m/s
B. 2 m/s
C. 5 m/s
D. 0.8 m/s

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Momentum before = 5×2=10, after = (5+3)v => v=10/8=1.25 m/s.

Question #2
Work done by a man in carrying a suitcase weighing 10 kg on his head while walking 5 m horizontally (g=10) is
A. 500 J
B. 0 J
C. 250 J
D. 50 J

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Force (weight) is vertical (upward to support), displacement horizontal, angle 90°, cos90°=0, work = 0. No work against gravity because vertical height doesn't change. Energy spent is internal muscular effort, but physics work zero.

Question #3
Which of the following materials is diamagnetic in nature?
A. Aluminum
B. Iron
C. Water
D. Nickel

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Materials are classified by their magnetic properties. Ferromagnetic materials (Iron, Cobalt, Nickel) are strongly attracted to magnets. Paramagnetic materials (Aluminum, Platinum) are weakly attracted. Diamagnetic materials (Water, Bismuth, Copper, Gold) are actually weakly repelled by a magnetic field because they create an induced magnetic field in opposition to the externally applied one.
