If you want to learn more about the nature and properties of matter and energy or you're simply preparing for a Physics exam, these Physics past questions and answers are ideal for you.
Which of the following is a semiconductor
copper
silicon
plastic
Iron
Correct answer is B
Semi-conductor have an elecctric conductivity intermediate in value between that of a pure metal and a good insulator. Silicon is an example
Which of the following is correct about an electric cell?
Primary cell produces a large current for a long time
Secondary cell has a very high internal resistance
Primary cell has a very low internal resistance
Secondary cell has a very low internal resistance
Correct answer is D
About electric cell
Primary cells are used up gradually often the cells are use and it can't be recharged
Secondary cells or accumulated can be recharged and used for a long period of time and their main advantage is that they have low internal resistance
From the diagram above, calculate the energy stored in the capacitor
4.0 x 10−2J
4.0 x 10−4J
8.0 x 10−4J
8.0 x 10−2J
Correct answer is B
c = 8µF, v = 10v
Energy stored = 12 cv2
= 12 × (8 × 10− 6) × 102
= 4 × 10−4
