Question : In 1851, who founded the science of hydrodynamics with his law of viscosity describing the velocity of a small sphere through a viscous fluid?
Option 1: Daniel Bernoulli
Option 2: George Gabriel Stokes
Option 3: Evangelista Torricelli
Option 4: Heinrich Gustav Magnus
Correct Answer: George Gabriel Stokes
Solution : The correct option is George Gabriel Stokes.
In 1851, George Gabriel Stokes, an Irish mathematician and physicist, founded the science of hydrodynamics with his law of viscosity. This seminal work described the motion of a small sphere through a viscous fluid, providing fundamental insights into fluid dynamics and paving the way for significant advancements in fluid mechanics. He also made significant contributions to fluid dynamics, optics, and the behaviour of waves, coining the term Stokes' Law for viscous drag in fluids.

Solution : Given: A @ B means A is the husband of B. A & B means A is the mother of B. A # B means A is the wife of B.
Now, let's check the options – First option: P @ Q & S # R
From the above family tree, it shows that P is the father of S.
Second option: Q @ P & R # S According to the given information, the family tree will be –
From the above family tree, it shows that P is the mother-in-law of S. Third option: P @ Q & R # S According to the given information, the family tree will be –
From the above family tree, it is evident that the P is the father-in-law of S. Fourth option: P @ Q & R & S According to the given information, the family tree will be –
Here, the quadrilateral represents the male and the circular figure represents the female in the figure. From the above family tree, it shows that P is the grandfather of S.
So, only the third option fulfils the relation as per the family tree. Hence, the third option is correct.
Question : Law of Demand violations include:
Option 1: Substitution effect is negative
Option 2: Income effect is negative
Option 3: Negative income effect is less than substitution effect
Option 4: Negative income effect is greater than substitution effect
Correct Answer: Negative income effect is greater than substitution effect
Solution : Income effect is greater than substitution effect in giffen goods. Giffen goods are the exceptions to the law of demand. GIffen goods are those incredibly subpar products that, even if their prices go down, their demand goes down. Giffen products have a strong negative income effect, which indicates that when buyer income rises, so does consumer demand for these products. Hence option d is the correct answer.
Question : What is the difference between mandatory spending and discretionary spending?
Option 1: Mandatory spending is spending that is authorized by Congress every year, while discretionary spending is spending that is not authorized by Congress every year
Option 2: Mandatory spending is spending that is required by law, while discretionary spending is spending that is not required by law
Option 3: Mandatory spending is spending that is authorized by the President, while discretionary spending is spending that is authorized by Congress
Option 4: Mandatory spending is spending that is required by the Constitution, while discretionary spending is spending that is not required by the Constitution
Correct Answer: Mandatory spending is spending that is required by law, while discretionary spending is spending that is not required by law
Solution : The correct answer is (b) Mandatory spending is spending that is required by law, while discretionary spending is spending that is not required by law.
Mandatory spending, also known as entitlement spending, refers to government expenditures that are determined by existing laws and obligations. These are typically programs like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and other mandatory benefit programs. The funding for mandatory spending is considered mandatory because it is required by the eligibility criteria and rules established in the legislation.
On the other hand, discretionary spending is spending that is determined by annual appropriation acts passed by Congress. It includes funding for various government agencies, defense, education, infrastructure, research, and other programs. Unlike mandatory spending, discretionary spending is subject to annual budget decisions and can be adjusted by Congress through the appropriations process.
To summarize, mandatory spending is legally required, while discretionary spending is subject to annual congressional appropriations.

Option 2: 1800
Option 3: 1808
Option 4: 1802
Correct Answer: 1800
Solution : The correct option is 1808.

Question : Which of the following scientists had discovered "the law of electric resistance"?
Option 1: Charles Coulomb
Option 2: George Simon Ohm
Option 3: Michael Faraday
Option 4: None of the options is correct
Correct Answer: George Simon Ohm
Solution : The correct option is G.S. Ohm.
The law of electric resistance is commonly attributed to George Simon Ohm. He formulated Ohm's Law, which describes the relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) in an electrical circuit. Ohm's law is fundamental to the understanding of electrical circuits and is expressed by the equation V = I * R, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance.
