Solution
A man exerts a pressure of 2.8 x 103Nm-2 on the ground and has 4 x 10-2m2 of his feet in contact with the ground. The weight of the man is
A
102N
B
70N
C
140N
D
112N
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option D
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
Pressure = Force / Area = Weight of the man / Area of his feet
=> 2.8 x 103 = Weight of the man / 4 x 10-2
∴ Weight of the man = 2.8 x 103 x 4 x 10-2
= 112N

Solution
If a force of 50N stretches a wire from 20m to 20.01m, what is the amount of force required to stretch the same material from 20m to 20.05m?
A
250N
B
200N
C
100N
D
50N
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option A
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
Original length = 20m
first new length = 20.01m
first increase in length = 20.01m - 20m = 0.01m
Second new length = 20.05m
second increase in length = 20.05 - 20m = 0.05m
From hooke's law = \( \frac{F_1}{e_1} = \frac{F_2}{e_2}\)
\(\implies \frac{50}{0.01} = \frac{F_2}{0.05}\)
\(\implies F_2 = \frac{50 \times 0.05}{0.01} = 250N \)

A
protagonists
B
antagonists
C
determiners
D
attorneys
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option B
Grammar & Contextual Explanation
The sentence refers to those who advocate against capitalism, and in this context, "antagonists" is the most appropriate term. "Protagonists" would suggest that capitalism is being supported or promoted, which is not the intended meaning in this context. "Determiners" and "attorneys" are not relevant to the discussion about capitalism and its characteristics.
