Which of the diagrams corectly shows the change in kinetic energy of an iron sphere falling freely in a lake having sufficient depth to impart it a terminal velocity ?

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
First velocity ( and hence K.E) of the sphere increases at a faster rate then at a slower rate and then becomes constant when the sphere attains the terminal velocity as shown in option (b)
