816.

Convert 45°C to kelvin

A.

318K

B.

250K

C.

184K

D.

120K

Correct answer is A

Note: T = 273 + θ

θ = 45°

T = 273 + 45

= 318K

A.

Micrometer screw gauge

B.

Vernier Caliper

C.

Meter rule

D.

None of the instrument

Correct answer is B

Vernier calliper is used to measure the internal and external diameter of an object

What is the relationship mechanical advantage (MA) velocity Ratio (V.R) and efficiency with percentage?

A.

e = M.A/V.R × 100 %

B.

M.A = E.V.R

C.

V.R = 1 ÷ sin θ M.A

D.

M.A = 1/E × 100%

Correct answer is A

The relationship between M.A, V.R, e and 100% can be written as

e = M.A/V.R × 100 %

i.e E/100 = M.A/V.R

= L ÷ E/x ÷ y = Ly/Ex

E/100 = Ly/Ex

Correct answer is B

J.J. Thompson discovered ELECTRONS

Mr. F. Abioye observed his image through a plane mirror, kept at a distance 4.7m away from him in his room. At what distance is the image found from Abioye's eye?

A.

9.4m

B.

7.5m

C.

5.7m

D.

6.9m

Correct answer is A

As object and image are usually at equal distance apart from the mirror /p>

Distance between Abioye (a) and hip image (I) = AI

i.e. AI = 4.7 + 47

= 9.4m
