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.

Q6. Identify the normally radioactive material in the following list.
Q6. Identify the normally radioactive material in the following list.
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

Q8. The weight of an object on the moon is equal to ___ of its weight on the earth.
Q8. The weight of an object on the moon is equal to ___ of its weight on the earth.
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.
Q9. What is the Distance between the Earth and the Moon?
Q9. What is the Distance between the Earth and the Moon?
Answer: (C) 384,400 KM
384,400 KM. The average distance between Earth and the Moon is 384,400 kilometers (238,855 miles). This is about 30 times the diameter of Earth. The Moon’s orbit around Earth is elliptical, so the distance between the two bodies varies slightly. The semi-major axis has a value of 384,399 km (238,854 mi). The time-averaged distance between the centers of Earth and the Moon is 385,000.6 km (239,228.3 mi). The actual distance varies over the course of the orbit of the Moon, from 356,500 km (221,500 mi) at the perigee to 406,700 km (252,700 mi) at apogee, resulting in a differential range of 50,200 km (31,200 mi).

Q19. Beyond what distance a normal eye can see objects clearly?
Q19. Beyond what distance a normal eye can see objects clearly?
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.
