A) Mercury has lower viscosity B) Mercury has greater density C) Mercury has lower temperature D) Mercury has greater specific heat Ans: B — Greater density ⚡ Killer Lock 1 atm = 760 mm Hg = 76 cm Hg = 1013 hPa ≈ 1.013 × 10⁵ Pa Mercury → 0.76 m | Water → ~10.3 m 🔥

🔥 Electric Generator → Electromagnetic Induction. From this one question, lock these 5 competitive-exam gems: 🌟 5 Physics Gems 1️⃣ Generator → Electromagnetic Induction ⚡ A generator works on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction: changing magnetic flux through a conductor induces an EMF. 🧠 Generator = Mechanical → Electrical 2️⃣ Motor = Reverse Energy Conversion 🔄 An electric motor converts electrical → mechanical energy using the force on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field. 🔥 Motor ≠ electromagnetic induction as its basic operating principle. 3️⃣ Fleming's Rules — Don't Swap Them ✋ Right-hand rule → Generator Left-hand rule → Motor 🧠 Right = Generate | Left = Motor 4️⃣ Faraday + Lenz = Magnitude + Direction 🧲 Faraday's law tells us about the induced EMF; Lenz's law gives its direction — the induced current opposes the change in magnetic flux producing it. 5️⃣ AC vs DC Generator 🔥 AC generator → Slip rings DC generator → Split-ring commutator ⚠️ Favourite exam trap: Split ring is NOT used to collect AC output unchanged. 🎯 5 Questions Q1. The fundamental principle of an electric generator is: A) Joule heating B) Electromagnetic induction C) Photoelectric effect D) Electrolysis Ans: B Q2.
