A body of mass `1 kg` is thrown upwards with a velocity `20 ms^(-1)`. It momentarily comes to rest after attaining a height of `18 m`. How much energy is lost due to air friction? `(g = 10 ms^(-2))`

A

20 J

B

30 J

C

40 J

D

10 J

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A


`K_1+U_1=K_2+U_2+W_f`
`W_f`: work done against friction
`(1)/(2)(1)(20)^2+0=0+(1)(10)(18)+W`
`200=180+W_f`
`W_f=20J`
Energy lost due to friction `=20J`
