Hi friend,

We have to find the height.

So , S=ut +1/2 at²

U=0

S= 1/2 ×10×(2√5)²

S=100m.

Power = work done /time

Power = mgh /time.
( here the ball comes to rest.so work done acts as potential energy).

Power= 150×10×100/2√5

power =33542 watts or 33.542 kW.

Hope this helped you a little!!!

varunmeda: Power= 150×10×100/2√5

power =33542 watts or 33.542 kW.
varunmeda: need some clarification answer is not there in options
saka82411: Answer is 150 kW
saka82411: I had rectified it
