A freely falling body has attained a velocity of 2 ~ms ⁻¹ . Now, if the weight of the body is opposed by upward air resistance, then the total distance travelled before stopping is
Options
- A4 ~m
- B8 ~m
- C0.2 ~m
- D0.4 ~m
Correct answer
B. 8 ~m
Step-by-step solution
Using conservation of momentum aligned & m u=m (v₁+v₂+v₃ ) & 0= i v+ j v+v₃ & v₃=- i v- j v & |v₃ |= 2 v aligned
