Question #1 Report Error
A 50 kg man climbs 30 steps each 20 cm high in 10 s. His power (g=10 m/s²) is
A. 600 W
B. 150 W
C. 30 W
D. 300 W

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Total height = 30 × 0.2 m = 6 m. Work done = mgh = 50 × 10 × 6 = 3000 J. Power = Work/time = 3000/10 = 300 W. If steps height and number given, calculate total vertical displacement. Time taken for climbing is important. Power is rate of doing work.

Question #2 Report Error
The efficiency of a machine is 80%. If it lifts a load of 500 N through 2 m, effort applied through 10 m. Effort is
A. 125 N
B. 80 N
C. 100 N
D. 200 N

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Work output = 500×2=1000 J. Work input = output/eff = 1000/0.8=1250 J. Effort = Work input / distance = 1250/10 = 125 N.

Question #3 Report Error
The unit of magnetic field strength is
A. Weber
B. Farad
C. Henry
D. Tesla

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Tesla (T) = N/(A·m) = Wb/m². Weber is magnetic flux. Henry is inductance. Farad is capacitance. Gauss is another unit (1 T = 10⁴ G).
