A machine which is 75 % efficient uses 12 J of energy lifting up a 1 kg mass through a certain distance . The mass is then allowed to fall through that distance. What will be its velocity at end of fall:

A

`sqrt(24) m//s`

B

`sqrt(32) m//s`

C

`sqrt(18) m//s`

D

`sqrt(19) m//s`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c
Work done =`(75)/(100)xx12=9 J`.
`1/2mv^(2)=9impliesv=sqrt((2xx9)/(1))=sqrt(18)ms^(-1)`.

  • Statement-1 : A block of mass m starts moving on a rough horizontal surface with a velocity V. It stops due to friction between the block and the surface after moving through a certain distance. The surface is now tilted to angle of 30^(@) with the horizontal and the same block is made to go up on the surface with the same initial velocity V. The decrease in the mechanical energy in the second situation is smaller than that in the first situation. Statement-2 : The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface decreases with the increase in the angle of inclination.
