A block slides down a smooth inclined placne when released from the top, while another falls freely from the same point. Which of the following `is//are` correct ?

A

Sliding block will reach the ground first

B

Freely falling block will reach the ground first.

C

Both the blocks will reach the ground with different speeds

D

Both the block will reach the ground with same speed .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, D
Freely falling block will reach the fround first, because it has to trvel less distance and with greater acceleration in comparison to the other block. Both the blocks will reach the ground with the same speed, because the potential enertail of both deceth derease by same amount, which gers converted into `KE`,.
