An inelastic ball falls from a height of `100` metres. It loses `20%` of its total energy due to impact. The ball will now rise to a height ofA. 80 mB. 40 mC. 60 mD. 20 m

Answer» Correct Answer - A
20% energy is lost that means 80% still remains so by that

80% mgh
the mass is not given assume to be 1 kg

80/100mgh = 0
therefore 
h =100mg/80

Correct option (A) 80 m

Percentage loss of total energy = \(\frac{h_1-h_2}{h_1}\times100\) 

20 = \((\frac{100-h_2}{100})\times100\) 

20 = (100 - h2)

h2 = 100 - 20

h2 = 80 m
