Here there are 3 cases :-

A. Ball is thrown upward- Here ball is given a velocity in upward direction,
so first the ball will cover some height in upward direction then it would
come down to its initial position with zero velocity but pointing in
downward direction and then the time taken will be same as in case (C)
since the only force acting will be gravitational force in downward
direction.This is going to take maximum time.
B. Ball is thrown downward- Here the ball has already been given some
downward velocity, which is not given in case A and B, so it is going to take
minimum time.
C. Ball thrown Horizontally-Here ball is thrown with zero velocity in
downward direction, its speed increase will be due to only gravitational
force of earth. This will take more time than case A but less time than case
B.

3. Here the external force acting on the ball is constant and is gravitational force
of the earth. Splitting this force along the incline, gives a gravitational force along
the incline and a gravitational force perpendicular to the incline. The force along
the incline is constant, and it is the only force which is responsible for changing
the balls velocity which is constant, whereas in the case of SHM the force is
(w^2)*X where w is angular frequency and X is displacement from mean position,
which changes with respect to time.
Therefore, this is not an SHM
4. Here perpendicular axis theorem is used to determine the moment of inertia of
a rigid body that lies entirely within a plane, about an axis perpendicular to the
plane, given the moments of inertia of the object about two perpendicular axes
lying within the plane. The axes must all pass through a single point in the plane.
So I1 and I3 and perpendicular to each and in plane of object and the axis through
which moment of inertia is to be calculated is perpendicular to the plane of object
and passing through intersection of I1 and I3. Similar is the case for I2 and I4.
Therefore option B is also correct

6.Apply pascals Law here
A change in pressure at any point in an enclosed fluid at rest is transmitted
undiminished to all points in the fluid.
F/A= nF/nA( Same Pressure)
Therefore, a force of F Newtons transmits to nF inside an enclose container.

8.This problem can be easily solved using the concept of Centre Of Mass. Initially
Centre of Mass of the wire is at ground position, when the chain is lifted upward
the position of center of mass changes from ground to L/2 above ground. Since
work done is equal integral of -F.dx , where F is the gravitational force which is
constant and is equal to Mg, this integral simply reduces to summation of dx
which is position of center of mass and is equal to L/2.
Therefore the net work done is MgL/2.
9. Here stress is same since Force applied/Area is same for both copper as well as
steel wires but for strain is equal to Stress/Youngs Modulus(depends on the
material). Since steel and copper are both different materials the net strain will be
different
10. This takes place in isothermal process where although heat is added to the
system, no change in temperature takes place and heat is used up in increasing
volume of the system in order to do some amount of work, which is equal to the
heat added.
