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.
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.
