Question

A particle is released from a height H . At a certain height its kinetic energy is half of its potential energy with reference to the surface of the earth. Height and speed of the particle at that instant are respectively, H 3 , 2 g H 3, H 3 , 2 g H 3, 2 H 3 , 2 g H, 2 H 3 , 2 g H 3

MARKS App · Accepted Answer

Given, P . E . = 2 K . E . now conservation of kinetic energy and potential energy, P . E . + K . E . = m g H ⇒ P . E . + 1 2 P . E . = m g H ⇒ 3 2 P . E . = m g H ⇒ P . E . = 2 m g H 3 = m g h ⇒ h = 2 H 3 here the kinetic energy, 2 K . E . + K . E . = m g H = 3 K . E . = 3 1 2 m v 2 v = 2 g H 3
