Question #1
Electron e/m measured by:
A. Thomson
B. Millikan
C. Bohr
D. Rutherford

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
J.J. Thomson measured e/m using cathode ray deflection (1897). Millikan later measured e (oil drop). Memory aid: 'Thomson = e/m; Millikan = e'. Experimental physics history frequently tested in competitive exams.

Question #2
A convex mirror is used as a rear-view mirror because it
A. Gives real image
B. Gives wider field of view
C. Inverts image
D. Magnifies image

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Convex mirror diverges rays, gives erect, diminished, virtual image with wider field. Concave would magnify but narrow field. Plane gives normal view. Safety advantage.

Question #3
A particle moves with velocity v = 3t² + 2t. Its acceleration at t = 2 s is:
A. 16 m/s²
B. 8 m/s²
C. 10 m/s²
D. 14 m/s²

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Acceleration a = dv/dt = d(3t² + 2t)/dt = 6t + 2. At t = 2 s: a = 6(2) + 2 = 14 m/s². Differentiation of velocity gives instantaneous acceleration. Memory tip: a = dv/dt; for polynomial v(t), differentiate term by term. Tests calculus application in kinematics, common in advanced competitive exam questions.
