The work done in moving a body along a closed path in a conservative force field is MCQ with Answer and Explanation

The work done in moving a body along a closed path in a conservative force field is
A. Zero
B. Minimum
C. Maximum
D. Depends on path
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Conservative forces (gravitational, electrostatic) have zero net work around closed path. Friction is non-conservative.

Question #1
Which of the following is the dimensional formula of impulse?
A. [MLT⁻¹]
B. [MLT⁻²]
C. [M⁰LT⁻¹]
D. [ML²T⁻¹]

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Impulse = Force × time = change in momentum. Momentum = mass × velocity, dimensions [M][LT⁻¹] = [MLT⁻¹]. Force dimensions [MLT⁻²], multiplied by time gives [MLT⁻¹]. Same as momentum.

A 10 Ω resistor is connected across a 5 V battery. The current flowing is
A. 0.5 A
B. 2 A
C. 5 A
D. 50 A

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
I = V/R = 5/10 = 0.5 A. Ohm's law. Simple calculation. Power P = V×I = 2.5 W.

Question #3
According to the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, the total energy of an electron in the nth stationary orbit is directly proportional to:
A. 1 / n
B. 1 / n^2
C. n^2
D. n

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
The total energy of an electron in a hydrogen-like atom in the nth orbit is strictly negative and given by the mathematical formula E_n = -13.6 Z^2 / n^2 (in eV). This formula demonstrates that the total energy is inversely proportional to the square of the principal quantum number (n^2).
