Ohm's law is valid for MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Ohm's law is valid for
A. Metallic conductors at constant temperature
B. Electrolytes
C. All conductors
D. Semiconductors only
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Ohm's law V = IR holds for ohmic conductors (metals) provided temperature and physical conditions constant. Non-ohmic: semiconductors, diodes, electrolytes. Graph V-I is straight line for ohmic. Temperature changes resistance, so condition necessary.

Question #3
SONAR is based on the principle of:
A. Refraction of sound waves
B. Diffraction of sound waves
C. Polarization of sound waves
D. Reflection of sound waves

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
SONAR (Sound Navigation and Ranging) relies on the reflection of ultrasonic waves. A transmitter sends out sound waves, which travel through water, strike an object (like a submarine or the seabed), and reflect back as an echo to a receiver. By measuring the time taken for the echo to return, the distance can be calculated.
