1.
According to Wien's Displacement Law, what happens to the wavelength at maximum radiation intensity (λ_max) when the absolute temperature of a radiating body increases?
It remains constant
It increases quadratically
It shifts towards shorter wavelengths (decreases)
It shifts towards longer wavelengths
2.
The hydrostatic pressure exerted by a static homogeneous liquid of density rho at depth h beneath its free surface is expressed by:
P = rho * g * h
P = 1/2 rho * g * h2
P = rho * h / g
P = rho * g / h
3.
A diver descends to a depth of 30 meters in seawater (density = 1030 kg/m3. If atmospheric pressure is 1.013 x 105 Pa and g = 9.8 m/s2, the total absolute pressure experienced by the diver is approximately:
4.04 x 105 Pa (approx. 4.0 atmospheres)
1.01 x 105 Pa
6.06 x 105 Pa
3.03 x 105 Pa
4.
Pascal's principle states that when pressure is applied to an enclosed, incompressible fluid, it is transmitted:
With an exponential decay as distance increases
Strictly to compressible gases
Only downwards towards the bottom of the vessel
Undiminished to every portion of the fluid and to the walls of the containing vessel
5.
In a hydraulic press, the ratio of the cross-sectional area of the large piston to that of the small piston is 50. If a force of 100 N is exerted on the small piston, the maximum force exerted by the large piston is:
2 N
50,000 N
5000 N
2500 N
