Planets visible without telescope
easy2019FIA Assistant Director Paper 2019 Batch 1
ScienceFIA
How many planets are visible to us without using a telescope?
A
2
B
3
C
4
D
5
Explanation and memory cue
The five planets visible to the naked eye without a telescope are Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. These planets have been known since ancient times and can be seen as steady points of light that do not twinkle. Uranus is barely visible to the naked eye under very dark skies and excellent eyesight, but it is generally considered not visible without optical aid. Neptune and Pluto are too faint to be seen without a telescope. Therefore, the correct answer is 5, which corresponds to option D.

ScienceFIA
The position of an element in the Periodic Table is determined by its __________ number.
A
Electron
B
Proton
C
Neutron
D
None of these
Explanation and memory cue
The position of an element in the Periodic Table is determined by its atomic number, which is the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom. This number defines the element's identity and its place in the table.

ScienceFIA
1 light year = ?
A
9.5 x 10 km
B
9.5 x 10^9 km
C
9.5 x 10^12 km
D
None of these
Explanation and memory cue
One light year is the distance that light travels in one year, which is approximately 9.5 x 10^12 kilometers. Options A and B are incorrect due to incorrect powers of ten, and option D is incorrect because option C is the correct value.

Digestion of food is complete in the?
A
Small intestine
B
Large Intestine
C
Stomach
D

What is dry ice?
A
Solid Oxygen
B
Solid Carbon Dioxide
C
Solid Hydrogen
D
None of these
Explanation and memory cue
Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide (CO2). It sublimates directly from solid to gas at -78.5°C without becoming liquid, which distinguishes it from other solids like oxygen or hydrogen.
