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.

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.

Q4. Why the sky appears blue?
Q4. 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.

Q5. Which is responsible for Earth's magnetic field?
Q5. Which is responsible for Earth's magnetic field?
Answer: (B) Outer Core
Answer: (B) Outer Core
Answer: (B) Outer Core
Outer Core
The magnetic field is generated by electric currents due to the motion of convection currents of a mixture of molten iron and nickel in Earth's outer core: these convection currents are caused by heat escaping from the core, a natural process called a geodynamo.

Q14. What is the Distance between the Earth and the Moon?
Q14. What is the Distance between the Earth and the Moon?
Answer: (C) 384,400 KM
Answer: (C) 384,400 KM
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).

Q16. Identify the normally radioactive material in the following list.
Q16. 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
