Question #1
The escape velocity from Earth does not depend on
A. Radius of Earth
B. Mass of Earth
C. Mass of the object
D. Universal gravitational constant

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
v_esc = √(2GM/R), independent of m. Heavier object needs more energy, but velocity same. All objects fall at same rate. Important concept.

Question #2
Capacitor charging work stored as:
A. Heat
B. Magnetic energy
C. Electrostatic energy
D. Chemical energy

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Work done stored in electric field between plates: U = ½CV². Recoverable on discharge. Memory aid: 'Capacitor energy = ½CV² in electric field'. Electrostatics concept frequently tested in competitive exams.

Question #3
Three forces in equilibrium: if two are equal and at 120°, third force is:
A. Equal to each, at 120° to both
B. Sum of two
C. Difference of two
D. Zero

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Vector equilibrium: three equal forces at 120° form closed triangle. Third force equals magnitude of others, oriented 120° from each. Memory aid: 'Equilibrium: vector sum = 0; symmetric forces ⇒ symmetric angles'. Statics concept frequently tested in competitive exams.
