(2) The strength of the man

(3) The height by which it is raised

(4) None of the above

If the kinetic energy of a body becomes four times of its initial value, then new momentum will:
1. becomes twice its initial value
2. become three times its initial value
3. become four times its initial value
4. remains constant

If the water falls from a dam into a turbine wheel 19.6 m below, then the velocity of water at the turbine is (g = 9.8 m/s²) 

(1) 9.8 m/s

(2) 19.6 m/s

(3) 39.2 m/s

(4) 98.0 m/s

Two identical cylindrical vessels with their bases at the same level each contain a liquid of density; $\rho$. The height of the liquid in one vessel is h₁ and that in the other vessel is h₂ $\left(h_1>h_2\right)$.The area of either base is A. The work done by gravity in equalizing the levels when the two vessels are connected is :

(1) $(h_1-h_2)g\rho$

(2) $(h_1-h_2)gA\rho$

(3) $\frac{1}{2}{(h_1-h_2)}^{2}gA\rho$

(4) $\frac{1}{4}{(h_1-h_2)}^{2}gA\rho$

If the increase in the kinetic energy of a body is 21%, then the increase in the momentum will be:
1. 22%
2. 44%
3. 10%
4. 300%
