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.

Q3. What is the distance between the Sun and the Earth?
Answer: (B) 149,597,870 KM
149,597,870 KM. The Earth is at 147,100,000 km at perihelion and 152,000,000 km at aphelion. The Astronomical Unit or AU is based on the average distance of the Earth from the Sun. The AU became a international standard in 2012 and is defined to be exactly 49,597,870.7 km.
Q4. Why the sky appears blue?
Q4. Why the sky appears blue?
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.

Q6. The period of one revolution of the Sun around the center of galaxy is called?
Answer: (D) Cosmic Year
The galactic year, also known as a cosmic year, is the duration of time required for the Sun to orbit once around the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. One galactic year is approximately 230 million Earth years.
Q7. Who discovered the Rings of Saturn?
Q7. Who discovered the Rings of Saturn?
Answer: (C) Galileo Galilei
Galileo Galilei becomes the first to observe Saturn's rings with his 20-power telescope in 1610. He thought the rings were "handles" or large moons on either side of the planet.

Q11. What is the audible range of frequencies for normal human ears?
Answer: (B) 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz
The audible range of an average human ear lies between 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz. Humans cannot hear sounds having frequency less than 20 Hz and greater than 20,000 Hz.
Q12. Identify the normally radioactive material in the following list.
Q12. 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
Q13. Which are the main gases present in Sun?
Q13. Which are the main gases present in Sun?
Answer: (A) Hydrogen and Helium
hydrogen (about 70%) and helium (about 28%).

Q19. What is the scientific field dedicated to the study of heavenly bodies, celestial objects, and phenomena originating beyond Earth's atmosphere?
Q19. What is the scientific field dedicated to the study of heavenly bodies, celestial objects, and phenomena originating beyond Earth's atmosphere?
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.
