Question #1
Latent heat of fusion ice = 336 kJ/kg. Heat to melt 3 kg ice at 0°C:
A. 336 kJ
B. 1008 kJ
C. 672 kJ
D. 112 kJ

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Q = mL = 3×336 = 1008 kJ. Direct latent heat formula application. Memory tip: 'Phase change: Q = mL; no temperature change'. Calorimetry calculation frequently tested in competitive exams.

Question #2
Rainbow formation is a complex phenomenon primarily involving which set of optical processes?
A. Reflection, Diffraction, and Scattering
B. Diffraction, Interference, and Polarization
C. Reflection, Scattering, and Dispersion
D. Refraction, Dispersion, and Total Internal Reflection

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
A rainbow is formed by sunlight interacting with water droplets. As light enters the droplet, it undergoes refraction and dispersion (separating into colors). The light then strikes the back of the droplet and undergoes total internal reflection. Finally, it undergoes a second refraction as it exits, spreading the spectrum out for the observer to see.

Question #3
A simple pendulum of length L has period T. If length is increased by 4 times, new period is
A. T/2
B. 2T
C. T/4
D. 4T

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
T ∝ √L, so √4 = 2 times.
