A body rolls down a slope from a height of 100m. its velocity at the foot of the slope is 20ms-1. What percentage of its initial potential energy is converted into kinetic energy? [g = 10ms-1]

40%

35%

20%

15%

Answer Details

P.E = mgh = 1000m joules

K.E = $\frac{1}{2}$ mv2 = 200m joules

%converted = $\frac{200 m}{1000 m}$ x 100

= 20%
