  3. C \(50\)
  4. D \(55\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(25\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let a ball is dropped from height \(\mathrm{h}\) then initial potential energy \(U_i=m g h\) Final height \(=\frac{3}{4} h\) then final potential energy, \(U_f=\frac{3}{4} \mathrm{mgh}\) The percentage loss of its energy…
