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.

Q6933.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2018, GATEasy

An object is moving with uniform acceleration a. Its initial velocity is u and after time t its velocity is v. The equation of its motion is v = u + at. The velocity (along y-axis) time (along x-axis) graph shall be a straight line

  1. A.passing through origin
  2. B.with x-intercept u
  3. C.with y-intercept u
  4. D.with slope u
Show answer
Correct answer: C. with y-intercept u

The equation v = u + at has the form y = c + mx, so the graph is a straight line that cuts the velocity axis at u and has slope a. On a velocity-time graph, time is on the x-axis and velocity on the y-axis.

Q6937.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2022, GATMedium

Which of the following statements correctly explains/explain the existence of a positive force between two electric charges?

1. Both the charges are positive.

2. Both the charges are negative.

3. Both the charges are oppositely charged.

Select the correct answer using the code given below.

  1. A.1 only
  2. B.2 only
  3. C.1 and 2 only
  4. D.1, 2 and 3

Correct answer: C. 1 and 2 only

By Coulomb's law the force F = kq₁q₂/r² comes out positive, meaning repulsive, whenever the two charges have the same sign.

Q6938.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-II 2023, GATEasy

Sita, 1·5 m high, stands before a plane mirror fixed on a wall to view her full image. What should be the minimum height of the plane mirror so that Sita can view her image fully?

  1. A.0·50 m
  2. B.0·35 m
  3. C.0·75 m
  4. D.0·25 m
Show answer
Correct answer: C. 0·75 m

To see one's full image in a plane mirror, the mirror must be at least half the person's height: half of 1·5 m is 0·75 m. Light from Sita's feet must reflect from the mirror into her eyes, and so must light from the top of her head.

Q6939.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2024, GATEasy

  2. B.1 and 2 only
  3. C.2 and 3 only
  4. D.1, 2 and 3
Show answer
