Resistance of human body in dry condition
Options- A. 10 ohm
- B. 1000 ohm
- C. 10000 ohm
- D. 100000 ohm
- Correct Answer
- 100000 ohm
ExplanationUnder dry conditions, the resistance offered by the human body may be as high as 100,000(10^5) Ohms.
Depending on the person, a rough value for the internal resistance of the human body is 300-1,000 Ohms. The skin's resistance is much lower if it is wet or burnt/blistered.
There are a lot of factors involved and not every person has the same electrical resistance. For instance, men tend to have lower resistance than women.
Within the body, the tissues with the greatest resistance are bone and fat - nerves and muscle have the least resistance.

Correct Answer: molecules of the dispersion medium colliding with dispersed phase particles
Explanation:
When their is a colloid in the solution, then it will show the Brownian movement, such as dust particle in the air will show the Brownian movement.
Hence, Brownian movement arises due to the impact of the molecules of the dispersion medium with the colloidal particles. It has been postulated that the impact of the molecules of dispersion medium on the colloidal particles are unequal.
This leads to the zig-zag (random) motion of the colloidal particles.
Correct Answer: Hydrogen
Explanation:
Entropy is a measure of disorder . It will be maximum in gases followed by liquids and least in solids.
Hence, here the gas is only hydrogen and it has the highest entropy.
Correct Answer: P1V1 = P2V2
Explanation:
Ideal Gas Law ::
The Combined gas law or General Gas Equation is obtained by combining Boyle's Law, Charles' Law, and Gay-Lussac's Law. It shows the relationship between the pressure, volume, and temperature for a fixed mass (quantity) of gas:
Hence, the Boyle's law P1V1 = P2T2, relates to ideal gas equation.
Correct Answer: Pyranometer
Explanation:
Solar radiation instruments may be produced to measure different types of solar energy. When sunlight encounters the Earth's atmosphere, some of it is absorbed or scattered by water vapor, aerosols, clouds, and other air molecules. The radiation which penetrates to the Earth's surface is termed direct solar radiation.
A thermopile pyranometer is a type of actinometer used for measuring solar radiation on a planar surface and it is designed to measure the solar radiation flux density (W/m2) from the hemisphere above within a wavelength range 0.3 ?m to 3 ?m.
Correct Answer: All the above
Explanation:
Processes that require or give off heat will be limited to changes of state, known as phase changes, and changes in chemical constitution, or chemical reactions. Changes of state involve a solid melting, a liquid freezing, a liquid boiling or a gas condensing.
An exothermic process is one that gives off heat, which is transferred to the surroundings. An endothermic process is a reaction which heat has to be supplied to the system from the surroundings.
Here in all the given options, heat is taken away from them to change there phase.
Liquid to Solid --- Freezing
Gas to Liquid --- Condensation
Gas to Solid --- Deposition
are all examples of exothermic processes.
Correct Answer: Velocity
Explanation:
When traveling in a vacuum, electronic waves from the electromagnetic spectrum all travel at the same speed. Velocity is speed with direction, so they would all travel at the same velocity, realtively speaking. But frequency and wavelength are quite different.
Correct Answer: above 120 db
Explanation:
Sound intensity is measured in decibels(db). Sound pollution above 120 db becomes more hazardous and have adverse affects on human life.
Correct Answer: Interference
Explanation:
In physics, interference is a phenomenon in which two waves superpose to form a resultant wave of greater, lower, or the same amplitude. The color bands in thin films are a result of wavelength dependent interference caused by the close spacing of the surfaces of the film.
Correct Answer: Magnifying objects
Explanation:
The photoelectric effect pointed to the particle properties of light, which had been considered to be a wave phenomenon. Particles like electron and protons have both particle like and wave like behavior. Thus, according to de Broglie, all the material particles in motion possess wave characteristics. Although the dual nature of matter is applicable to all material objects but it is significant for microscopic bodies only.
Correct Answer: Acceleration
Explanation:
Acceleration is nothing but the rate at which velocity changes over time.
