Question #1
Escape velocity depends on:
A. Launch angle
B. Atmosphere
C. Projectile mass
D. Planet mass and radius

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
v_e = √(2GM/R): depends on planet's M and R, independent of projectile mass or launch direction. Memory tip: 'v_e ∝ √(M/R); property of planet, not projectile'. Gravitation concept frequently tested in competitive exams.

Question #2
Free fall: height h takes time t. Height 4h takes time:
A. 4t
B. 2t
C. t/2
D. t

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
h = ½gt² ⇒ t ∝ √h. If h' = 4h, t' = √4 × t = 2t. Time doubles when height quadruples. Memory aid: 'Free fall: t ∝ √h; 4× height ⇒ 2× time'. Kinematics proportionality frequently tested in competitive exams.

Question #3
An ammeter is always connected in
A. Across supply
B. Either series or parallel
C. Series with circuit
D. Parallel with circuit

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Ammeter measures current, must be in series so full current flows through it. Low internal resistance to minimize voltage drop. Voltmeter measures potential difference, connected in parallel, high resistance.
