Question 1 Report

An object of mass 100g projected vertically upwards from the ground level has a velocity of 20ms-1 at a height of 10m. calculate its initial kinetic energy at the ground level.[g = 10ms-2, neglect air resistance]
Answer Details
Using, v2 = u2 - 2gx

(20)2 = u21/2 x 10 x 10

u2 = 600(m/s)2

initial K.E = - mu2

=  1 2  x 600

= 30 J
