A body is thrown vertically upwards with kinetic energy 100 J. At highest point, kinetic energy is
A. 0 J
B. 200 J
C. 100 J
D. 50 J

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:

Question #3
A block of wood floats in water with 60% of its volume submerged. In a liquid of density 0.8 g/cm³, the fraction of volume submerged will be:
A. 60%
B. 48%
C. 75%
D. 80%

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
From floatation: ρ_wood/ρ_water = fraction submerged in water = 0.6. Thus ρ_wood = 0.6 g/cm³ (since ρ_water = 1 g/cm³). In new liquid (ρ_l = 0.8 g/cm³), fraction submerged f = ρ_wood/ρ_l = 0.6/0.8 = 0.75 = 75%. This uses the principle that fraction submerged equals density ratio. Memory aid: 'f = ρ_object / ρ_fluid'. Such comparative buoyancy problems test application of Archimedes' principle across scenarios, common in competitive exams. Always maintain consistent units (g/cm³ here simplifies calculation).
