Question #1
The scientist who formulated the universal law of gravitation is:
A. Isaac Newton
B. Johannes Kepler
C. Albert Einstein
D. Galileo Galilei

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Isaac Newton formulated the universal law of gravitation in his Principia Mathematica (1687), stating F = Gm₁m₂/r². Galileo studied falling bodies; Kepler derived planetary motion laws; Einstein developed general relativity (gravity as spacetime curvature). Memory aid: 'Newton = gravity apple story'. This history-based question tests knowledge of key scientific contributions, frequently appearing in competitive exams. Always associate scientists with their specific discoveries to avoid confusion between classical and modern physics pioneers.

Question #2
Escape velocity of a body from Earth is 11.2 km/s. For a planet with mass 9 times Earth and radius same, escape velocity is
A. 3.73 km/s
B. 11.2 km/s
C. 33.6 km/s
D. 22.4 km/s

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
v_esc ∝ √M. M'=9M => v'=3×11.2=33.6 km/s.
