In the given figure, the block of mass mm is dropped from the point ′A′' A '. The expression for kinetic energy of block when it reaches point ′B′' B ' is

In the given figure, the block of mass m is dropped from the point ' A ' . The expression for kinetic energy of block

Options

  1. Amgy0mg{y}_{0}
  2. B12mgy02\dfrac{1}{2}mg{y}_{0}^{2}
  3. C12mgy2\dfrac{1}{2}mg{y}^{2}
  4. Dmg(y−y0)mg\left(y - {y}_{0}\right)

Correct answer

A. mgy0mg{y}_{0}

Step-by-step solution

Here, gain in kinetic energy=loss in potential energy

Now loss in potential energy of particle in falling from height yy to y0{y}_{0} is mg(y−y0)mg\left(y - {y}_{0}\right).

So, \DeltaKE=\DeltaKE =K−0=−[mg(y−y0)−mgy]K - 0 = - \left[mg\left(y - {y}_{0}\right) - mgy\right]

Thus, kinetic energy at point BB is K=mgy0K = mg{y}_{0}
