In which of the following countries, River Kaladan flows?
1. India
2. Bangladesh
3. Myanmar
Select the correct answer:
Correct
Ans a)
Kaladan is a river which flows through State of Mizoram, and in Chin State and Rakhine State
of Myanmar. The Kaladan River is called the Chhimtuipui River in India. Kaladan Multi-Modal
Transit Transport Project is a multimillion-dollar connectivity project connecting the eastern
Indian seaport of Kolkata with Sittwe seaport in Rakhine State, Myanmar by sea. In
Myanmar, it will then link Sittwe seaport to Paletwa in Chin State via the Kaladan river boat
route, and then from Paletwa by road to Mizoram state in Northeast India.

Which of the following is not necessary for a storm to be considered as a blizzard?
1. There is sustained wind or frequent gusts of 35 miles per hour or greater.
2. There is falling and/or blowing snow, frequently reducing visibility to less than one
quarter of a mile.
3. The necessary conditions must persist for a minimum of three hours.
Select the correct answer:
Correct
Ans d)
The term blizzard describes a violent snowstorm characterized by strong winds, cold
temperatures, and reduced visibility due to falling or blowing snow.
According to U.S. National Weather Service, to be classified as a ‘blizzard’ there must be:
1. There is sustained wind or frequent gusts of 35 miles per hour or greater.
2. There is falling and/or blowing snow, frequently reducing visibility to less than one-
quarter of a mile.
3. The conditions must persist for a minimum of three hours.

In the context of gravitational force and electromagnetic force, consider the following
statements:
1. While gravitational force is always attractive, electromagnetic force can be both
attractive and repulsive.
2. While gravitational force is only dependent on mass, the electromagnetic force is
dependent on both mass and charge.
3. While gravitational force is dependent upon the distance between two bodies, the
electromagnetic force is independent of it.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Correct
Ans a)
Gravitational force is always attractive while Electromagnetic force can be both attractive
and repulsive. The same charges repel each other while opposite charges attract. Hence
statement 1 is correct.
The electromagnetic force is not dependent upon mass. Hence statement 2 is not correct.
The gravitational force between two bodies is directly proportionate to the product of
masses of the two objects and inversely proportionate to the square of the distance
between them. The electromagnetic force between two bodies is directly proportionate to
the product of charges of the two objects and inversely proportionate to the square of the
distance between them. Hence statement 3 is not correct.

The Chandrasekhar limit is the limit of the maximum mass of a stable white dwarf
star.
Which of the following statement defines the term white dwarf star?
Correct
Ans d)
The Chandrasekhar limit is the maximum mass of a stable white dwarf star. The currently
accepted value of the Chandrasekhar limit is about 1.4 times the mass of sun.
A white dwarf is a very dense celestial body with a mass that is comparable to the Sun's, and
volume comparable to the Earth's.
White dwarfs are thought to be the final evolutionary state of stars whose mass is not high
enough to become a neutron star or black hole.
If a red giant has insufficient mass, an inert mass of carbon and oxygen will build up at its
center. After such a star sheds its outer layers and forms a planetary nebula, it will leave
behind a core, which is the remnant white dwarf.

Consider the following statements with respect to Southern Lights-
1They are also known as aurora borealis.
2. It is caused by the collision between fast moving electrons from space with the oxygen
and nitrogen in Earth’s upper atmosphere.
Which of the statement(s) is/are correct?
Correct
Ans b)
The northern lights are called aurora borealis while southern lights are called aurora
australis.
The typical aurora is caused by collisions between fast-moving electrons from space with
the oxygen and nitrogen in Earth ‘s upper atmosphere.
