An electric iron draws 5 A at 220 V. Its power is MCQ with Answer and Explanation

An electric iron draws 5 A at 220 V. Its power is
A. 550 W
B. 44 W
C. 1100 W
D. 2200 W
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
P = V×I = 220 × 5 = 1100 W = 1.1 kW. Energy consumed in 2 hours = 2.2 kWh. Simple.

Question #1
A charged particle enters a magnetic field at 90° to the field. Its kinetic energy
A. Remains constant
B. Becomes zero
C. Increases
D. Decreases

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Magnetic force does no work, speed constant, so KE constant. Path circular.

Question #2
Potentiometer measures EMF accurately because:
A. It has high resistance
B. Both (a) and (c)
C. It draws no current from cell
D. It uses null deflection

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Potentiometer uses null method: at balance, no current flows through cell, so measured voltage equals true EMF (no internal resistance drop). Memory aid: 'Null method ⇒ zero current ⇒ accurate EMF measurement'. Experimental physics concept frequently tested in competitive exams to verify understanding of precision measurement techniques.

Question #3
Sound cannot travel through:
A. Gases
B. Solids
C. Liquids
D. Vacuum

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Sound requires material medium for mechanical wave propagation. Vacuum lacks particles to transmit vibrations. Light (EM wave) travels through vacuum. Memory tip: 'Sound = mechanical wave ⇒ needs medium; light = EM wave ⇒ no medium needed'. Fundamental wave property frequently tested in competitive exams to assess medium-dependence understanding.
