A 5 kg body experiences force 20 N. Acceleration produced is: MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A 5 kg body experiences force 20 N. Acceleration produced is:
A. 100 m/s²
B. 4 m/s²
C. 0.25 m/s²
D. 25 m/s²
Answer: Option B
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Newton's second law: F = ma ⇒ a = F/m = 20 N / 5 kg = 4 m/s². Direct application of fundamental dynamics equation. Memory tip: Always convert to SI units first; here already in kg and N. Basic numerical testing F=ma application, commonly appearing in competitive exams to verify formula recall and unit handling.

Question #1
The dimensional formula of angular momentum is:
A. [M⁰L⁰T⁰]
B. [MLT⁻¹]
C. [ML²T⁻¹]
D. [ML²T⁻²]

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Angular momentum L = r × p. Position r has [L], linear momentum p = mv has [MLT⁻¹], so L has [L][MLT⁻¹] = [ML²T⁻¹]. This matches Planck's constant dimensions. Option A is linear momentum; C is energy/torque; D is dimensionless. Memory aid: 'Angular momentum: [ML²T⁻¹]; same as action quantities'. This dimensional analysis question tests ability to derive formulas, crucial for competitive exams. Always break down compound quantities into fundamental dimensions (M, L, T) for verification and problem-solving.

Question #2
The number of significant figures in 0.0034060 is
A. 7
B. 5
C. 4
D. 6

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Leading zeros (before first non-zero digit) are not significant. So 0.0034060: the first non-zero is 3, then 4,0,6 are significant, and the trailing zero after decimal is significant. Thus significant digits are 3,4,0,6,0 — 5 digits. Note: The last zero indicates precision. Answer is 5.

Question #3
A person with myopia uses spectacles of power -2 D. Far point without glasses is
A. 2 m
B. 50 cm
C. 25 cm
D. Infinity

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
For myopia, corrective lens forms image of distant object at far point. 1/f = 1/(-far point) - 1/(-∞) => -2 = -1/F => F = 0.5 m = 50 cm.
