A machine which is 75 percent efficient, uses 12 joules of energy in lifting up a 1 kg mass through a certain distance. The mass is then allowed to fall through that distance. The velocity at the end of its fall is (in `ms^(-1)`)

A

`sqrt24`

B

`sqrt32`

C

`sqrt18`

D

`sqrt9`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
75% of 12 J = 9 J
mgh `= 9 implies h = 9/(1xx10) = 0.9 m`
`v=sqrt(2gh)=sqrt(2xx10xx0.9)=sqrt(18)m//s`

An athelete in a gymansium room lifts a 50 kg mass through a vertical distance of 2.0 m , g=9.8 ms^(-2) . The mass is allowed to fall through 2.0 m distance while coupled to an electrical generator. The electrical generator produces an equal amount of electrical work. this electrical work is used to produce aluminium by hall's process involving the change, Al_(2)O_(3)("molten")+3C_((s))to2Al_((l))+3CO_((g)) The reaction require standard free energy change equal to 593 k J . how many times must the athelete lift 50 kg mass and to drop and couple with generator to produce sufficient Gibbs free energy to produce 27 g Al?
