a ball of mass 2kg from a height of 5 makers. what is its kinetic energy when huts rashes the ground
Answers
A metal ball of mass 2kg is allowed to fall freely from rest from a height of 5m above the ground What is the kinetic energy of the ball just before it hits the ground?
➡ 100joule.
Given that, A ball of mass 2kg is allowed to fall freely from rest to a height of 5metres.
Using the formula :
❃ K. E. (kinetic energy) = mgh
Where,
m (mass) = 2kg
g (acceleration due to gravity) =
h (height) = 5 metres.
Procedure :
➡ K. E. = mgh
➡ K. E. = 2*5*10
➡ K. E. = 100 joule.
This is the total energy as K.E is zero when the ball is at maximum height that is when it is at 5 m. Hence when the ball reaches the ground P.E becomes zero because of zero height.At this point,the total energy is equal to the K.E that is K.E=100J.
