Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL), which states that the algebraic sum of all potential differences in any closed loop is zero, is a direct manifestation of the conservation of: MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL), which states that the algebraic sum of all potential differences in any closed loop is zero, is a direct manifestation of the conservation of:
A. Linear Momentum
B. Mass
C. Energy
D. Electric Charge
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Kirchhoff's Second Law (KVL) is based on the principle that the electrostatic field is conservative. The work done (energy spent or gained) in moving a unit charge completely around a closed electrical loop must be zero. Therefore, the sum of voltage drops and EMFs is zero. This strictly represents the Law of Conservation of Energy.

The nucleus of an atom contains
A. Only neutrons
B. Electrons and protons

Question #2
The frequency of a tuning fork is 512 Hz. It produces resonance in a closed organ pipe of length 16 cm (speed of sound 340 m/s). The pipe resonates in
A. End correction needed
B. Second overtone
C. Fundamental mode
D. First overtone

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
For closed pipe, fundamental f = v/(4L) = 340/(4×0.16) = 340/0.64 ≈ 531 Hz, close to 512 Hz, slight difference due to end correction. So fundamental. Approx match, SSC type.

Question #3
In uniform circular motion, which of the following is constant?
A. Velocity
B. Kinetic energy
C. Linear momentum
D. Centripetal acceleration

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Speed constant, so kinetic energy (½mv²) constant. Velocity, acceleration, momentum change direction.
