Question #1
A body of mass 2 kg has momentum 10 kg·m/s. Its kinetic energy is:
A. 12.5 J
B. 100 J
C. 25 J
D. 50 J

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
KE = p²/(2m) = (10)²/(2×2) = 100/4 = 25 J. Wait, recalculate: 100/4 = 25 J. Option B is correct. KE = p²/2m relates momentum and kinetic energy. Memory tip: When given momentum, use KE = p²/2m instead of finding velocity first. Efficient calculation method for competitive exam time constraints.

Question #3
A body weighs 72 N on the surface of the Earth. What is the gravitational force on it at a height equal to half the radius of the Earth?
A. 16 N
B. 32 N
C. 28 N
D. 72 N

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Weight on surface W = mg = 72 N. Acceleration due to gravity at height h is g' = g [R / (R+h)]². Here h = R/2. So, g' = g [R / (R + R/2)]² = g [1 / (3/2)]² = g (2/3)² = 4g/9. The new weight W' = mg' = m(4g/9) = (4/9)mg = (4/9) × 72 = 32 N.
