The energy equivalent of 1 g mass is MCQ with Answer and Explanation

The energy equivalent of 1 g mass is
A. 9×10¹⁶ J
B. 9×10¹⁰ J
C. 9×10¹³ J
D. 3×10⁸ J
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
E = mc² = 0.001 kg × (3×10⁸)² = 0.001 × 9×10¹⁶ = 9×10¹³ J. Enormous energy. 1 g mass if fully converted gives this. Atomic bomb converts small fraction.

Question #1
The phenomenon of splitting of white light into its constituent colours is called
A. Dispersion
B. Scattering
C. Polarisation
D. Refraction

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Dispersion happens because refractive index varies with wavelength. Prism, rainbow. Scattering is Tyndall effect (blue sky). Polarisation restricts vibrations.

Question #2
Lens power P = -4 D. Focal length and type:
A. 25 cm, concave
B. 25 cm, convex
C. 40 cm, concave
D. 40 cm, convex

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
P = 1/f(m) ⇒ f = 1/P = 1/(-4) = -0.25 m = -25 cm. Negative focal length indicates diverging (concave) lens. Memory aid: 'Negative power = concave lens; f(cm) = 100/P(D)'. Direct lens power application frequently tested in competitive exams with sign convention awareness.

Question #3
If the speed of light is taken as 3 × 10⁸ m/s, its value in scientific notation with three significant figures is:
A. 3.00 × 10⁸ m/s
B. 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s
C. 3 × 10⁸ m/s
D. 300000000 m/s

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Three significant figures require the number to be written with three meaningful digits. 3.00 × 10⁸ m/s has three significant figures (3,0,0). 3 × 10⁸ has one significant figure; 3.0 × 10⁸ has two; 300000000 has ambiguous significance. Standard scientific notation: 3.00 × 10⁸ m/s. This is important in precision measurements.
