A bullet of mass `10 gm` strikes a target at `400 m//s` velocity and does half of its initial velocity. The loss of kinetic energy in joules is

A

800

B

200

C

400

D

600

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`(4)`

`Delta KE = 1/2m(v_(1)^(2) - v_(1)^(2)), v_(2) = v_(1)/2`
