Question 41. The resistance of the human body (dry condition) is of the order of
  1.    101 Ohm
  2.    102 Ohm
  3.    103 Ohm
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> None of these
According to National Institute of occupational safety and health, Under dry condition, the resistance of the human body is 100,000 ohms. Under wet condition, the resistance is reduced to 1000 ohms.
Question 42. Quality of transmission depends upon
  1.    Nature of signal only
  2.    Nature of medium only
  3.    Both (A) and (B)
  4.    Neither A nor B
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Both (A) and (B)
Quality of transmission is governed both by nature of signal and nature of communication channel/medium.
Question 43. Circuit breaker usually operate under
  1.    After D. C. component has ceased
  2.    Transient state of short-circuit current
  3.    Sub-transient state of short-circuit current
  4.    Steady state of short-circuit current
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Transient state of short-circuit current
Circuit breaker usually operate under transient state of short-circuit current.
Question 44. Which component of an IED creates an electrical charge?
  1.    Activator
  2.    Fuse
  3.    Explosive
  4.    Power source
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> Power source
The power source such as a Battery of an IED creates an electrical charge. An Improvised Explosive Device (IED) is a bomb constructed and deployed in ways other than in conventional military action.
Question 45. A multimeter is used to measure
  1.    Current
  2.    Voltage
  3.    Resistance
  4.    All of the above
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> All of the above
A digital multimeter is a test tool used to measure two or more electrical values—principally voltage (volts), current (amps) and resistance (ohms).
Question 46. Gamma rays can cause
  1.    Gene mutation
  2.    Sneezing
  3.    Burning
  4.    Fever
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Gene mutation
Gamma rays can cause Gene mutation.
Question 47. Green house effect is the heating up of the Earth's atmosphere which is due to
  1.    The ultraviolet rays
  2.    G-rays
  3.    The infra-red rays
  4.    X-rays
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> The infra-red rays
Green house effect is the heating up of the Earth's atmosphere which is due to infrared rays.
Question 48. Night photography and photopraphy in mist and fog are possible using
  1.    Ultra-violet radiation
  2.    Infra-red radiation
  3.    Microwave radiation
  4.    Gamma radiation
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Infra-red radiation
Infrared is used in night vision equipment when there is insufficient visible light to see. Night vision devices operate through a process involving the conversion of ambient light photons into electrons which are then amplified by a chemical and electrical process and then converted back into visible light.
Question 49. Visible light has a higher frequency than
  1.    Radio waves
  2.    X rays
  3.    Ultra violet
  4.    All the above
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Radio waves
Visible light has a higher frequency than radio waves.
Question 50. Which of the following has the longest wavelength?
  1.    Infrared radiation
  2.    X-ray radiation
  3.    Ultraviolet radiation
  4.    Visible radiation
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Infrared radiation
Infrared radiation has the longest wavelength.
