A projectile is fired with velocity u at angle 45° with horizontal. Its time of flight is (g = 10 m/s²) MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A projectile is fired with velocity u at angle 45° with horizontal. Its time of flight is (g = 10 m/s²)
A. u/5
B. √2 u/10
C. u/5√2
D. √2 u/5
Answer: Option B
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
T = 2u sinθ/g = 2u sin45°/10 = 2u(1/√2)/10 = √2 u/10. SSC often tests projectile basics.

Capacitor charging work stored as:
A. Magnetic energy
B. Heat
C. Electrostatic energy
D. Chemical energy

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Work done stored in electric field between plates: U = ½CV². Recoverable on discharge. Memory aid: 'Capacitor energy = ½CV² in electric field'. Electrostatics concept frequently tested in competitive exams.

Question #3
An echo returned in 0.5 s. If speed of sound is 340 m/s, the distance of reflecting surface is
A. 340 m
B. 170 m
C. 85 m
D. 680 m

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
d = (v×t)/2 = (340×0.5)/2 = 170/2 = 85 m. Minimum distance for echo perception is about 17 m. Remember divide by 2 for one-way distance.
