If the force of attraction between two objects each of mass 1 kg separated by 1 m is F, then force between 2 kg and 2 kg at same distance is MCQ with Answer and Explanation

If the force of attraction between two objects each of mass 1 kg separated by 1 m is F, then force between 2 kg and 2 kg at same distance is
A. 4F
B. 8F
C. 2F
D. F
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
F ∝ m₁m₂. Initial: 1×1 = 1. New masses 2 and 2, product 4, so force = 4F. Distance unchanged. Universal gravitation F = Gm₁m₂/r².

Question #1 Report Error
The concept of 'Inertia' was first practically developed by which scientist before Newton incorporated it into his First Law?
A. Galileo Galilei
B. Archimedes
C. Johannes Kepler
D. Aristotle

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Galileo Galilei conducted experiments rolling balls down inclined planes and concluded that an object in motion would continue moving indefinitely on a frictionless surface. This completely challenged Aristotelian mechanics and formulated the concept of inertia, which Isaac Newton later formalized as his First Law of Motion.

A 60 W bulb is used for 5 hours daily. How much electrical energy is consumed by the bulb in 30 days?
A. 90 kWh
B. 900 kWh
C. 0.9 kWh
D. 9 kWh

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Electrical energy (E) = Power (P) × Time (t). Power = 60 W = 0.06 kW. Time per day = 5 hours. Total time in 30 days = 5 × 30 = 150 hours. Energy = 0.06 kW × 150 h = 9 kWh (or 9 units of electricity). One kWh is the commercial unit of energy.

Question #3 Report Error
A man of mass 60 kg stands on a weighing machine in a lift accelerating upward at 2 m/s². Reading in kg wt (g=10) is
A. 80 kg
B. 72 kg
C. 48 kg
D. 60 kg

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Apparent weight = m(g+a) = 60×12 = 720 N. In kg wt, 720/10 = 72 kg. So machine shows 72 kg. Downward acceleration would show less.
