JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 5. work,energy,power and collision

The rain drop of mass \(1\) g, starts with zero velocity from a height of \(1\) km. It hits the ground with a speed of \(5\) m/s. The work done by the unknown resistive force is _______ J. (take \(g = 10\) m/s\(^2\))

  1. A \(-8.75\)
  2. B \(-8.35\)
  3. C \(-9.55\)
  4. D \(-9.98\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(-9.98\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Using the work-energy theorem, the total work done by all forces equals the change in kinetic energy: \(W_{g} + W_{r} = \Delta K\) \(mgh + W_{r} = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 - 0\) Substituting the given values (\(m = 10^{-3}\) kg, \(g = 10\) m/s\(^2\), \(h = 1000\) m, \(v = 5\) m/s):…
