In a shotput event an athlete throws the shotput of mass 20 kg with an initial speed of `2 m s^(-1)` at `45^@` from height 3 m above ground. Assuming air resistance to be negligible and acceleration due to gravity to be `10 m s^(-2)`, the kinetic energy of the shotput when it just reaches the ground will beA. 2.5JB. 5JC. 525JD. 640 J |
Answer» Correct Answer - D Using law of energy conservation, `(TME)_(i) = (TME)_(f)implies U_i+ K_i = U_f + K_f` `implies 20 xx 10 xx 3 + 1/2 xx 20 xx 2^(2)= 0+ K_fimplies K_f= 640 J` |
