Question #1
An object weights 10 N in air, 8 N in water. The buoyant force is
A. 10 N
B. 18 N
C. 8 N
D. 2 N

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Loss in weight = buoyant force = 10 - 8 = 2 N. Weight of displaced water = 2 N. Volume of object = mass of displaced water / density. Archimedes principle.

Question #2
A projectile is fired with velocity u at angle 45° with horizontal. Its time of flight is (g = 10 m/s²)
A. √2 u/10
B. √2 u/5
C. u/5
D. u/5√2

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
T = 2u sinθ/g = 2u sin45°/10 = 2u(1/√2)/10 = √2 u/10. SSC often tests projectile basics.
