A ball is dropped from a height of 10m. If the energy of the ball reduces by 40percent after striking ground, how high ball bounce |
|
Answer» Solution: H1 =10 m, v1 =? Loss of energy =40% H2 =? On striking the floor, K.E = P.E ½ mv12 = mg H1 V1 = ?(2gH1)= ?( 2x9.8x10) V1= ?196= 14 m/s As the body loses 40% of its energy, final energy E2 =( 60/100) of initial energy i.e. mgH2 = (60/100)mgH1 H2 =3/5 H1= (3/5)X10= 6m |
