Question #1
Transformer turns ratio N_p:N_s = 1:5. If V_p = 100V, V_s is:
A. 500V
B. 100V
C. 2500V
D. 20V

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
V_s/V_p = N_s/N_p ⇒ V_s = 100×(5/1) = 500V. Step-up transformer increases voltage. Memory aid: 'Turns ratio = voltage ratio; current ratio inverse'. Direct transformer formula application frequently tested in competitive exams with ratio calculations.

Question #2
Object floats with 40% volume submerged. Density ratio (object/liquid) is:
A. 1.4
B. 0.4
C. 0.6
D. 2.5

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Floatation: weight = buoyant force ⇒ ρ_obj·V·g = ρ_liq·V_sub·g ⇒ ρ_obj/ρ_liq = V_sub/V = 0.4. Fraction submerged equals density ratio. Memory tip: 'Submerged fraction = ρ_object/ρ_fluid'. Direct Archimedes' principle application frequently tested in buoyancy sections of competitive exams.

Question #3
The defect of vision in which a person cannot see nearby objects clearly is
A. Myopia
B. Hypermetropia
C. Astigmatism
D. Presbyopia

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Hypermetropia (farsightedness): near point farther away, difficulty seeing close objects. Corrected with convex lens. Myopia: distant objects blurry. Presbyopia due to aging. Astigmatism due to irregular cornea.
