Physics QUESTION #7081
Question 10444
A pendulum clock loses $12\text{ s/day}$ at $40^{\circ}\text{C}$ and gains $4\text{ s/day}$ at $20^{\circ}\text{C}$. Find the temperature for correct time and the coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha$.
  • $60^{\circ}\text{C}$, $\alpha=1.85 \times 10^{-4}/^{\circ}\text{C}$
  • $30^{\circ}\text{C}$, $\alpha=1.85 \times 10^{-3}/^{\circ}\text{C}$
  • $55^{\circ}\text{C}$, $\alpha=1.85 \times 10^{-2}/^{\circ}\text{C}$
  • $25^{\circ}\text{C}$, $\alpha=1.85 \times 10^{-5}/^{\circ}\text{C}$✔️
Correct Answer Logic:

The change in time is given by $\Delta t = \frac{1}{2} \alpha \Delta \theta \times t$.

  • $12 = \frac{1}{2} \alpha (40 - \theta) \times 86400$
  • $-4 = \frac{1}{2} \alpha (20 - \theta) \times 86400$
  • Dividing the equations gives $\theta = 25^{\circ}\text{C}$.
  • Substituting $\theta$ back gives $\alpha = 1.85 \times 10^{-5}/^{\circ}\text{C}$.

Question 10447
What is the ploidy level of the endosperm in angiosperms?
  • Haploid (n)
  • Diploid (2n)
  • Triploid (3n)✔️
  • Tetraploid (4n)
Correct Answer Logic:
In angiosperms, the endosperm is formed by triple fusion — the fusion of two polar nuclei (each haploid, n) with one male gamete (n) — resulting in a triploid (3n) nucleus. The endosperm develops into a nutritive tissue that nourishes the developing embryo. This is a unique feature of double fertilization in angiosperms.

Question 10448
The secondary structure of proteins is stabilized by:
  • Ionic bonds
  • Hydrogen bonds✔️
  • Disulfide bridges
  • Hydrophobic exclusion
Correct Answer Logic:
The secondary structure of proteins ($\alpha$-helix and $\beta$-pleated sheet) is maintained by hydrogen bonds between the carbonyl ($C=O$) and amino ($N-H$) groups of the peptide backbone.

Question 10449
The EXTERNAL DATA BUS (EDB) in a computer is best described as:
  • A type of USB cable used to connect external drives to the computer
  • A row of wires that interconnect the parts of the computer internally✔️
  • A software interface that manages communication between the operating system and hardware
  • The physical slot on the motherboard where expansion cards are inserted

MBBS QUESTION #10371
Question 10457
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR), used to exponentially amplify a specific target DNA sequence in vitro, consists of which three essential, repeated cyclic steps?
  • Denaturation (strand separation), annealing (primer binding), and extension (elongation)✔️
  • Transcription, translation, and replication
  • Ligation, restriction enzyme digestion, and gel electrophoresis
  • Centrifugation, filtration, and chemical precipitation
Correct Answer Logic:
Each PCR cycle involves heat denaturation of double-stranded DNA, annealing of short complementary primers to the target sequence at a lower temperature, and extension of new DNA strands by a heat-stable DNA polymerase (e.g., Taq polymerase) — repeated cycles exponentially amplify the target sequence, forming the basis of modern molecular diagnostics.

Correct Answer Logic:

The roots of $x^2-x+1=0$ are $x=\frac{1\pm\sqrt{-3}}{2}=-\omega,-\omega^2$ where $\omega=e^{2\pi i/3}$.

Let $\alpha=-\omega, \beta=-\omega^2$. Then:

$\alpha^{101}=(-\omega)^{101}=-\omega^{101}=-\omega^{101\mod3}=-\omega^2$ (since $101=33\times3+2$)

$\beta^{107}=(-\omega^2)^{107}=-\omega^{214}=-\omega^{214\mod3}=-\omega^1$ (since $214=71\times3+1$)

$\alpha^{101}+\beta^{107}=-\omega^2-\omega=-(w+\omega^2)=-(-1)=\mathbf{1}$
