A car moving at constant velocity of 10 m/s has net force acting on it equal to MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A car moving at constant velocity of 10 m/s has net force acting on it equal to
A. Frictional force
B. Zero
C. Force of engine
D. Weight of car
Answer: Option B
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Constant velocity implies zero acceleration, net force = 0 by Newton's first law. Engine force balances friction and air resistance. Net force zero, not necessarily zero forces.

Escape velocity from a planet depends on
A. Density of atmosphere
B. Mass of escaping body
C. Mass and radius of planet
D. Radius of planet only

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
v_esc = √(2GM/R), depends on planet's mass and radius, not body's mass.

Lens power P = -4 D. Focal length and type:
A. 40 cm, concave
B. 25 cm, convex
C. 25 cm, concave
D. 40 cm, convex

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
P = 1/f(m) ⇒ f = 1/P = 1/(-4) = -0.25 m = -25 cm. Negative focal length indicates diverging (concave) lens. Memory aid: 'Negative power = concave lens; f(cm) = 100/P(D)'. Direct lens power application frequently tested in competitive exams with sign convention awareness.
