Answer : 1. "They cannot transmit data at long distances due to curvature of the earth"
Explanation :
Explanation: Most communication waves cannot transmit data accurately over long distances due to the curvature of the earth. They can only do so in the line of sight. However, they are not reflected by the ionosphere like radio waves and can be relayed to a wide area using geostationary satellites.

Answer : 2. "An object under free fall is an example of uniform acceleration."
Explanation :
1. The change in velocity of an object at equal time intervals is called uniform acceleration.
2. A freely falling object is an example of uniform acceleration.

Q: What are the conditions for gas like Carbon monoxide to obey the ideal gas laws?
756 063c8f745bdbddb32fda0e8d0
63c8f745bdbddb32fda0e8d0- 1Low temperature and low pressurefalse
- 2Low temperature and high pressurefalse
- 3High temperature and low pressuretrue
- 4High temperature and high pressurefalse
- Show Answer

- SingleChoice
Answer : 3. "High temperature and low pressure "
Explanation :
A real gas can behave as an ideal gas if volume of molecule is negligible and interaction between molecule is negligible. This will happen if number of molecule per unit volume is very small. This is only possible at high temperature and low pressure.
Q: Degree of dissociation does not depend on which of the following factors?
747 063c7cd09b338bc336f093b86

Answer : 3. "Sound "
Explanation :
The Degree of dissociation does not depend on catalyst.The equivalent conductivity of 0.1M weak acid is 100 times less than that at infinite dilution.
Q: What does an electric dipole experience when it is kept in the non-uniform electric field?
730 063c8e9d71c47ef334be0efc0
63c8e9d71c47ef334be0efc0- 1Only a forcefalse
- 2Only torquefalse
- 3Force and torque bothtrue
- 4Neither force nor torquefalse
- Show Answer
- Workspace
- SingleChoice
Answer : 3. "Force and torque both"
Explanation :
An electric dipole always experiences a torque when placed in uniform as well as non-uniform electric field. But in non-uniform electric field, dipole will also experience net force of attraction. So the electric dipole in non-uniform electric field experiences both torque and force.
Q: What is the correct order of radiations in descending order of frequencies?
