A.

1.2 x 10-1cm

B.

8.4 x 10-2cm

C.

7.2 x10-2cm

D.

3.6 x 10-2cm

A body of mass 5kg falls from a height of 10m above the ground. What is the kinetic energy of the body just before it strikes the ground? (Neglect energy losses and take gravity as 10ms^2)

A.

5J

B.

25J

C.

250J

D.

500J

E.

625J

View answer & explanation

Correct answer is D

v2 = u2 + 2gh = 0 + 2 x 10 x 10
v2 = 200; K.E = 1/2m
v2 = 1/2 x 5 x 200 = 500J
