ICSE Class 10 Dual Nature of Radiation and Matter — Mock Test (2027)

Free online mock test for Dual Nature of Radiation and Matter (ICSE Class 10 Physics) — 87 competency-based questions based on the latest CISCE 2027 syllabus, with instant marking. Try the samples below, then take the full test free.

What to expect: This mock test covers key concepts from the Dual Nature of Radiation and Matter chapter — including application-based and competency-focused questions aligned with how ICSE actually sets the paper.

Tip: Attempt without notes first to identify gaps, then review explanations for any wrong answers. Retake after a few days for best retention.

Sample questions

  1. 1.Assertion (A): The classical wave theory of light cannot explain the existence of a threshold frequency. Reason (R): In the wave picture a sufficiently intense beam of any frequency should, over time, supply enough energy for emission.
    • A.Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
    • B.Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
    • C.A is true but R is false
    • D.A is false but R is true
  2. 2.Below a certain minimum frequency of incident light, no photoelectric emission occurs no matter how intense the light. This frequency is the:
    • A.Saturation frequency
    • B.Threshold (cut-off) frequency
    • C.Resonant frequency
    • D.Larmor frequency
  3. 3.Applying a very strong electric field (of the order of 10^8 V/m) to a metal to pull out electrons is known as:
    • A.Thermionic emission
    • B.Field emission
    • C.Photoelectric emission
    • D.Thermal emission
  4. 4.The momentum of a photon of a 500 nm light wave is (h = 6.63 x 10^-34 J s):
    • A.1.33 x 10^-27 kg m/s
    • B.3.32 x 10^-19 kg m/s
    • C.6.63 x 10^-27 kg m/s
    • D.1.33 x 10^-34 kg m/s
  5. 5.When light of energy 4.0 eV per photon is incident on a metal of work function 2.5 eV, the stopping potential required to halt the most energetic photoelectrons is:
    • A.1.5 V
    • B.6.5 V
    • C.2.5 V
    • D.4.0 V
