RRB NTPC GK Questions 2026

Static General Knowledge makes up the rest of the General Awareness section in RRB NTPC, and the notices name its topics: General Science and Life Science up to Class 10, History of India and the freedom struggle, Physical, Social and Economic Geography of India and the world, Indian Polity and Governance, Indian Economy, Art and Culture, Indian Literature, Monuments and Places, Flora and Fauna, Famous Personalities, the UN and other world organisations, environmental issues, Transport Systems in India, Important Government and Public Sector Organisations, Common Abbreviations, and Basics of Computers and Computer Applications. RRB frames these as short factual questions: the unit of a physical quantity, the year of a battle, the article of the Constitution, the river a city stands on, the full form of an abbreviation, the headquarters of an organisation. GK24's GK notes on this page cover each topic in English and Hindi, arranged the way the syllabus lists them, with the facts RRB tends to ask placed first. Work through one topic at a time, note the lists (national parks, dances, articles, schedules, awards), and pair each topic with its quiz on GK24 to check what has stayed with you.

Q3255.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-II 2019, GATHard

A rigid body of mass 2 kg is dropped from a stationary balloon kept at a height of 50 m from the ground. The speed of the body when it just touches the ground and the total energy when it is dropped from the balloon are respectively (acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²)

  1. A.980 m s⁻¹ and 980 J
  2. B.√980 m s⁻¹ and √980 J

  4. D.√980 m s⁻¹ and 980 J
Show answer
Correct answer: D. √980 m s⁻¹ and 980 J

The body falls freely from rest through 50 m, so v² = 2gh = 2 × 9.8 × 50 = 980, giving v = √980, about 31.3 m s⁻¹; its total energy at release is all potential energy, mgh = 2 × 9.8 × 50 = 980 J. Because the…

  2. B.protons and neutrons only
  3. C.electrons and neutrons only
  4. D.electrons, protons and neutrons

Almost all the mass of an atom is in its nucleus, so the mass number, which the question calls atomic mass, is the total of protons and neutrons, the two kinds of nucleons.

Q3257.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2021, GATMedium

Which one of the following statements is true for a simple harmonic oscillator?

  1. A.Force acting is directly proportional to the displacement from the mean position and is in same direction.
  2. B.Force acting is directly proportional to the displacement from the mean position and is in opposite direction.
  3. C.Acceleration of the oscillator is constant.
  4. D.The velocity of the oscillator is not periodic.
Show answer
Correct answer: B. Force acting is directly proportional to the displacement from the mean position and is in opposite direction.

This is the defining condition of simple harmonic motion, written F = −kx, where k is the force constant and the minus sign shows that the force always points back towards the mean position.

Q3260.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-II 2025, GATMedium

Which one of the following statements is NOT correct?

  1. A.Water of crystallization is the fixed number of water molecules present in one formula unit of a salt
  2. B.The molecular formula of Plaster of Paris is CaSO4·2H2O
  3. C.Washing soda is used for removing the permanent hardness of water
  4. D.The atmosphere of Venus is made up of thick white and yellow clouds of sulphuric acid
Show answer
Correct answer: B. The molecular formula of Plaster of Paris is CaSO4·2H2O

The statement is false because CaSO4·2H2O is gypsum; Plaster of Paris is calcium sulphate hemihydrate, CaSO4·½H2O. When gypsum is heated to about 373 K, it loses three-quarters of its water and becomes Plaster of Paris, a white powder.
