A block of mass 100g is moved with a speed of 5.0 m/s at the highest point in a closed circular tube of radius 10 cm kept in a vertical plane. The cross section of the tube is such that the block just fits in it. The block makes several oscillations inside the tube and finally stops at the lowest point. find the work done by the tube on the block during the process

Answer

A, D

Explanation

Given `m=100, g=0.1kg, `
`v=5m/sec, r=10 cm`
work done by the block
=total energy at A-total energy ast B
`=(1/2mv^2+mgh-0)`
`rarr 2=1/2xx(0.1)xx25+(0.1)xx10xx(0.2)`
`[h=2r=0.2m]`
`=1.25+0.2=1.45J`
so, the work done by the tube on the body is
`W_1=1.45J`
