A 5 kg object is moving with 2 m/s. Its momentum is
A. 10 kg m/s
B. 2.5 kg m/s
C. 0.4 kg m/s
D. 7 kg m/s
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
p = m v = 5 × 2 = 10 kg m/s. Direction same as velocity. Momentum vector. Unit kg·m/s.

Question #1
The pitch of a sound becomes higher if
A. Speed decreases
B. Frequency increases
C. Amplitude increases
D. Wavelength increases

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Higher frequency → higher pitch. Amplitude increases loudness. Wavelength inversely proportional to frequency (v constant). So increasing frequency increases pitch.

Question #2
The rate of change of momentum is equal to
A. Power
B. Work
C. Force
D. Impulse

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
F = dp/dt (Newton's second law original form). Impulse is Δp. Work F·s. Power dW/dt.

Question #3
Binding energy per nucleon peaks at:
A. Helium
B. Iron
C. Hydrogen
D. Uranium

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Maximum binding energy/nucleon ≈ 8.8 MeV at iron-56, making it most stable. Lighter nuclei release energy via fusion; heavier via fission. Memory tip: 'Iron peak: most stable nucleus; fusion before, fission after'. Nuclear physics concept frequently tested in competitive exams.
