Category Description: Science is a rigorous, systematic endeavor that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the world. Modern science is typically divided into three major branches: natural sciences (e.g., physics, chemistry, and biology), which study the physical world; the social sciences (e.g., economics, psychology, and sociology), which study individuals and societies; and the formal sciences (e.g., logic, mathematics, and theoretical computer science), which study formal systems, governed by axioms and rules.
Q1. Identify the normally radioactive material in the following list.
Q1. Identify the normally radioactive material in the following list.
Answer: (A) Plutonium
Answer: (A) Plutonium
Answer: (A) Plutonium
Plutonium is the only radioactive element in the list.
Plutonium is a radioactive, silvery-gray, metallic element with the symbol Pu and atomic number 94. It has a high surface tension and viscosity compared to other metals, and tarnishes when exposed to air. Plutonium is created in a reactor when uranium atoms absorb neutrons, and is a by-product of nuclear power plants. It is the main fuel in fast neutron reactors, and more than one-third of the energy produced in most nuclear power plants comes from plutonium. Plutonium has five common isotopes, each with a different half-life, which is the time it takes to lose half of its radioactivity

Q3. Why the sky appears blue?
Q3. Why the sky appears blue?
Answer: (C) Dispersion of light
Answer: (C) Dispersion of light
Answer: (C) Dispersion of light
Blue colour of the sky is due to dispersion or scattering of light. The two most common types of matter present in the atmosphere are gaseous nitrogen and oxygen. These particles are most effective in scattering the higher frequency and shorter wavelength portions of the visible light spectrum.

Answer: (D) 1/6
Answer: (D) 1/6
Answer: (D) 1/6
1/6th
The moon's gravitational force is only about 16.6 % of Earth's gravity which means an object would weigh six times less on the moon than they do on Earth.

Q11. Beyond what distance a normal eye can see objects clearly?
Q11. Beyond what distance a normal eye can see objects clearly?
Answer: (C) 25 cm
Answer: (C) 25 cm
Answer: (C) 25 cm
For a clear vision, the image must be on the retina. The image distance is therefore fixed for clear vision and it equals the distance of retina from eye lens. It is about 25 cm for a grown up person. A person can theoretically have clear vision of an object situated at any large distance from the eye.

Q18. What is the scientific field dedicated to the study of heavenly bodies, celestial objects, and phenomena originating beyond Earth's atmosphere?
Q18. What is the scientific field dedicated to the study of heavenly bodies, celestial objects, and phenomena originating beyond Earth's atmosphere?
Answer: (D) Astronomy
Answer: (D) Astronomy
Answer: (D) Astronomy
Astronomy is a natural science that involves the scientific study of celestial objects (such as stars, planets, comets, galaxies, and nebulae), the universe as a whole, and the phenomena that originate beyond Earth's atmosphere. It uses principles of mathematics, physics, and chemistry to understand their origin, evolution, physical and chemical properties, and behavior. While cosmology is a branch of astronomy that focuses on the universe's origin, evolution, and large-scale structure, astronomy encompasses the broader study of all extraterrestrial objects and phenomena.
