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: (C) Galileo Galilei
Answer: (C) Galileo Galilei
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. Which is responsible for Earth's magnetic field?
Q11. 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. Beyond what distance a normal eye can see objects clearly?
Q14. 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.

Q15. Why the sky appears blue?
Q15. 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.

Q16. What is the scientific field dedicated to the study of heavenly bodies, celestial objects, and phenomena originating beyond Earth's atmosphere?
Q16. 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.

Q17. What is the outermost layer of the Earth?
Answer: (C) Crust
Answer: (C) Crust
Answer: (C) Crust
Crust
The structure of the Earth is divided into four major concentric layers: inner core, outer core, mantle and crust (the outermost layer). The crust is made up of tectonic plates, which are in constant motion.

Q20. What is the lower fixed point of fahrenheit scale?
Q20. What is the lower fixed point of fahrenheit scale?
Answer: (B) 32°F
Answer: (B) 32°F
Answer: (B) 32°F
The lower fixed point in Fahrenheit scale is 32 degree and upper fixed point in Fahrenheit scale is 212 degree. The difference between the two is 180, hence number of division is 180.
