Question #2
Significant figures in 0.004050:
A. 3
B. 5
C. 7
D. 4

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Rules: leading zeros not significant; trailing zero after decimal is significant. Digits 4,0,5,0 are significant ⇒ 4 sig figs. Memory tip: 'Start at first non-zero; include trailing zeros after decimal'. Measurement precision concept frequently tested in competitive exams.

Question #3
Pressure at depth h in fluid: P = P₀ + ρgh. If depth doubles, pressure increase is:
A. Same
B. Half
C. Four times
D. Double

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Gauge pressure (excluding atmospheric) P_gauge = ρgh ∝ h. Doubling depth doubles gauge pressure. Total pressure P = P₀ + ρgh increases but not exactly double due to P₀ term. Question asks about pressure increase (ρgh part). Memory tip: 'Hydrostatic pressure ∝ depth'. Fundamental fluid statics concept frequently tested in competitive exams.
