NEET2009PhysicsWork, Power and EnergyActual
A body of mass 1 ~kg of thrown upwards with a velocity 20 ~m / s . It momenetarily comes to rest after attaining a height of 18 ~m . How much energy is lost due to air friction ? ( g =10 ~m / s ^2 )
Options
- A10 ~J
- B20 ~J
- C30 ~J
- D40 ~J
Correct answer
B. 20 ~J
Step-by-step solution
Loss of energy = 1 2 mv ^2- mgh =20 ~J
