Question #1
Which of the following uses the principle of electromagnetic induction?
A. Electric heater
B. Fuse
C. Transformer
D. Incandescent bulb

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Transformer, induction cooker, generator use induction. Heater and bulb use heating effect of current. Fuse melts by heat. Induction: changing magnetic field induces current.

Question #2
Two forces 3 N and 4 N act at right angles. Resultant magnitude is:
A. 1 N
B. 7 N
C. 12 N
D. 5 N

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
For perpendicular forces: R = √(F₁² + F₂²) = √(9 + 16) = √25 = 5 N. Pythagorean theorem applies for vector addition at 90°. Memory aid: '3-4-5 triangle for perpendicular forces'. Basic vector addition problem testing magnitude calculation, common in mechanics sections of competitive exams.

Question #3
According to Brewster's Law, when unpolarized light is incident on a transparent medium at the polarizing angle (Brewster's angle), the reflected and refracted rays are:
A. Totally internally reflected
B. At exactly 90 degrees to each other
C. Parallel to each other
D. At 45 degrees to each other

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Brewster's Law states that when light hits a dielectric boundary at a specific angle of incidence (Brewster's angle, theta_p), the reflected light is completely plane-polarized. At this exact geometric condition, the angle between the reflected ray and the refracted (transmitted) ray is strictly 90 degrees.
