Question #1
A transformer works on the principle of:
A. Self-induction
B. Electrostatic induction
C. Electromagnetic repulsion
D. Mutual induction

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
A transformer operates on the principle of mutual induction. It consists of primary and secondary coils. When an alternating current flows through the primary coil, it generates a changing magnetic field. This fluctuating flux links with the secondary coil, inducing an alternating electromotive force (EMF) in it according to Faraday's Law.

Question #2
A spring of spring constant k is cut into four equal parts. The spring constant of each part is
A. 2k
B. k
C. k/4
D. 4k

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
For a spring, k ∝ 1/length. So quarter length has 4 times k. Each part has constant 4k.

Question #3
A thermometer reads 25°C. What is the corresponding temperature in Kelvin?
A. 248 K
B. 273 K
C. 325 K
D. 298 K

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
To convert a temperature from Celsius to Kelvin, the formula is K = °C + 273.15. For most physics problems, we use 273. Therefore, K = 25 + 273 = 298 K. Kelvin is the SI unit of temperature, and it never uses a degree symbol.
