- Question
The pressure of a fluid varies with depth h as P = PQ+pgh, where p is the fluid density. This expression is associated with
Options- A. Pascal?s law
- B. Newton?s law
- C. Bernoulli?s principle
- D. Archimedes? principle
- Correct Answer
- Pascal?s law
ExplanationPascal's law is a principle in fluid mechanics that states that a pressure change occurring anywhere in a confined incompressible fluid is transmitted throughout the fluid such that the same change occurs everywhere.
This principle is stated mathematically as: P= P + rgh

Correct Answer: > P
Explanation:
Aluminum has a resistivity varying from 2.65 to 2.82 × 10?8 ? m.The resistivity of copper is generally given as: 1.72 x 10-8 ?.m.So, since resistivity of aluminium is higher than that of copper, so Power dissipated will be greater than P. this is because rest of the factors (l, A and i) are constant.
Correct Answer: scattering of light
Explanation:
According to Rayleigh's law, the intensity of scattered light varies inversely as the fourth power of its wavelength. Sunlight consists of seven colours. Of these, red has the maximum wavelength. During sunrise and sunset, the rays have to travel a larger part of the atmosphere because they are very close to the horizon.Therefore, light other than red is mostly scattered away. Most of the red light, which is the least scattered, enters our eyes. Hence, the sun and the sky appear red.
Correct Answer: 5R/4
Explanation:
So, resistance of Wire 2 is R/4 as radius is half of wire 1, so area would be 4 times of wire 1.
Now for resistance in series. R= R1 + R2.
Therefore, Final R= R + R/4 = 5R/4
Correct Answer: Both Refraction and Total internal reflection of light
Correct Answer: diffraction
Correct Answer: Solar cell panel
Correct Answer: Newton's third law
Correct Answer: Electromagnetic waves do not show interference and diffraction.
Correct Answer: Release of heat
Correct Answer: Due to refraction
