Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(9.8\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(P _{ i }= P _{ f }\) (no any external force)

\(0.2 \times 10=10 \times v\)

\(v =0.2 m / sec\)

Loss in K.E. \(=\frac{1}{2} \times(0.2) \times 10^{2}-\frac{1}{2} \times 10(0.2)^{2}\)

\(=\frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times(0.2)[10-0.2]\)

\(=9.8\,J\)
