Question #1
KE increased by 100%. Momentum increase percentage:
A. 100%
B. 41.4%
C. 50%
D. 200%

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
KE ∝ p². Double KE ⇒ p_new = √2 p_old ⇒ increase = (√2 - 1)×100% ≈ 41.4%. Memory tip: 'KE ∝ p²; %Δp ≈ ½ %ΔKE for small changes, but use exact for large'. Energy-momentum relation frequently tested in competitive exams.

Question #2
The dimensional formula of strain is
A. [T⁻¹]
B. [L]
C. [M⁰L⁰T⁰]
D. [MLT⁻²]

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Strain = ΔL/L, dimensionless, so [M⁰L⁰T⁰].

Question #3
Two waves interfering at a point have a path difference of lambda / 2. Their corresponding phase difference is exactly:
A. pi / 2 radians
B. pi radians
C. 2pi radians
D. pi / 4 radians

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
The relationship between phase difference (phi) and path difference (delta x) is given by the formula phi = (2pi / lambda) * delta x. Given a path difference of lambda / 2, substitute this into the formula: phi = (2pi / lambda) * (lambda / 2) = pi radians. This indicates strictly destructive interference.
