Question #1
AC RMS value defined for equivalent:
A. Magnetic field
B. Heating effect
C. Voltage
D. Charge flow

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
I_rms defined so I_rms²R = average power, same heating as DC current. For sine wave: I_rms = I₀/√2. Memory tip: 'RMS: heating equivalence; use RMS for power calculations'. AC fundamentals frequently tested in competitive exams.

Question #3
A body starts from rest and moves with uniform acceleration. The ratio of distances covered in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd seconds is
A. 1:4:9
B. 1:1:1
C. 1:3:5
D. 1:2:3

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
s_nth = u + a/2 (2n-1). u=0, so distances proportional to (2n-1): 1,3,5.
