Physics Questions

Q:

In spherical polar coordinates (l, q, a), q denotesthe polar angle around z-axis and a denotes the azimuthal angle raised from x-axis . Then the y-component of P is given by

A) Psinq sina B) Psinq cosa
C) Pcosq sina D) Pcosq cosa
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Psinq sina

Explanation:

The Cartesian Coordinates can be retrieved from spherical coordinates (l,q,a) by:

X = r.sinq.cosa

Y = r.sinq.sina

Z = r.sinq

Using the same we get for P,

Y = P.sinq.sina

Q:

What type of heat transfer is boiling water?

A) radiation B) conduction
C) convection D) None of the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) convection

Explanation:

Convection is by far the most efficient and common way for heat to be transferred through liquids and gases. It occurs when some regions of a fluid get hotter than others, causing currents in the fluid that move it around to distribute that heat more evenly.

Q:

In a bipolar junction transistor

A) all the three regions (the emitter, the base and the collector) have equal concentrations of impurity B) the emitter has the least concentration of impurity
C) the collector has the least concentration of impurity D) the base has the least concentration of impurity
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) the base has the least concentration of impurity

Explanation:

In terms of concentration of impurity (a.k.a impurity doping concentration, often abbreviated to doping concentration), from the highest to the lowest among the three regions of a bipolar junction, emitter, collector, and base are the correct order. The above order is independent of the type of BJT, npn or pnp
