Work Energy And Power Question 128

Question: A ball is allowed to fall from a height of 10 m. If there is 40% loss of energy due to impact, then after one impact ball will go up to [CPMT 1985]

Options:

A) 10 m

B) 8 m

C) 4 m

D) 6 m

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

$ mgh= $ initial potential energy $ mg{h}’= $

final potential energy after rebound

As 40% energy lost during impact \mgh’=60% of mgh

therefore $ h’=\frac{60}{100}\times h=\frac{60}{100}\times 10=6m $
