- Question
In the gamma decay of a nucleus
Options- A. the mass number of the nucleus changes whereas its atomic number does not change
- B. the mass number of the nucleus does not change whereas its atomic number changes
- C. both the mass number and the atomic number of the nucleus change
- D. neither the mass number nor the atomic number of the nucleus changes
- Correct Answer
- neither the mass number nor the atomic number of the nucleus changes
ExplanationThe emission of gamma rays does not alter the number of protons or neutrons in the nucleus but instead has the effect of moving the nucleus from a higher to a lower energy state (unstable to stable)

Correct Answer: a high resistance in series
Correct Answer: equilibrium, irreversible
Explanation:
The transport phenomenon occurs only in equilibrium state of a gas and is irreversible.
Correct Answer: D.C. to A.C.
Correct Answer: viscosity and buoyancy
Correct Answer: pressure varies
Correct Answer: Zero
Correct Answer: 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
Correct Answer: 1 atmosphere
Explanation:
1 atm: It was originally defined as the pressure exerted by 760 mm of mercury at 0 °C and standard gravity (g = 9.80665 m/s2).
Correct Answer: Angular momentum
Explanation:
In S.I. System unit of angular momentum is "joule.Second".
SI unit of Planck's constant is joule-seconds(j-s).
Correct Answer: The sensitivity of the human ear does not vary with the frequency of the sound.
Explanation:
The human ear can respond to minute pressure variations inthe air if they are in the audible frequency range, roughly 20 Hz -20 kHz. In fact, tests conducted show an increased sensitivity in the 3000 Hz range which is the optimal amplification frequency in the human ear. So, the sensitivity of the human ear varies with the frequency of the sound.
