Question 1 of 5
1. Question
Which of the following is an advantage of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellations like Starlink over Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) satellites?
Correct
Answer: B. Lower deployment cost and latency
Explanation:
LEO satellites operate below 2,000 km, making them cheaper and quicker to deploy compared to GEO satellites at 35,786 km. They also have very low latency, which is ideal for real-time applications. However, each LEO satellite covers a smaller area, requiring thousands of satellites for global coverage. GEO satellites cover more area but have higher latency and cost.

Under Article 217 of the Indian Constitution, the removal of a High Court judge requires:
Correct
Answer: C. Two-thirds majority in both Houses of Parliament after inquiry
Explanation:
A High Court judge can be removed on grounds of proved misbehaviour or incapacity through a process similar to impeachment. This involves an inquiry by a 3-member committee (a Supreme Court judge, a Chief Justice of a High Court, and a distinguished jurist), followed by a two-thirds majority vote in both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha.

3. Question
Dhiri Bull Fighting in Goa is currently banned under which legislation?
Correct
Answer: B. Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960
Explanation:
Dhiri Bull Fighting, a traditional post-harvest sport in Goa, was banned in 1997 under the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act after a fatality. Despite the ban being upheld by the Supreme Court, the sport continues illegally, and recent political efforts aim to legalise it under regulated conditions similar to Tamil Nadu’s Jallikattu.

4. Question
Which of the following correctly differentiates Section 152 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) from the repealed Section 124A IPC (sedition)?
Correct
Answer: B. Section 152 explicitly includes digital and financial means in offences
Explanation:
Section 152 BNS shifts the focus from disaffection against the government (in Section 124A IPC) to direct threats against the nation’s unity and sovereignty. It explicitly recognises modern methods—like electronic communication and financial means—making it broader in scope for the digital era.

5. Question
In the Muon g-2 experiment at Fermilab, a deviation of the muon’s g-factor from the theoretical value could indicate:
Correct
Answer: C. The existence of unknown forces or particles beyond the Standard Model
Explanation:
The muon’s g-factor should theoretically be 2, but quantum effects make it slightly different (g-2). If the measured deviation from theory is real, it may signal the presence of unknown particles or forces beyond the Standard Model. Fermilab’s ultra-precise measurement (0.127 ppm accuracy) has reignited interest in possible “new physics.”
