Q 1 :    

If a rubber ball falls from a height h and rebounds up to the height of h/2. The percentage loss of total energy of the initial system as well as velocity ball before it strikes the ground, respectively, are                 [2024]

  • 40%,2gh

     

  • 50%,gh2

     

  • 50%,2gh

     

  • 50%,gh

     

(C)  Velocity just before collision = 2gh

        Velocity just after collision = 2g(h2)

             KE=12m(2gh)-12mgh=12mgh

             % loss in energy KEKEi×100

         KEKEi×100=12mgh12mg2h×100=50%
