A particle is placed at the point A of a frictionless track ABC as shown in figure. It is gently pushed towards right. The speed of the particle when it reaches the point B is: (Take g=10 m s-2.

  1. 20 m s-1
  2. 10 m s-1
  3. 210  m s-1
  4. 10  m s-1

Solution

Applying conservation of mechanical energy between point A & B, we get

KEA+UA=KEB+UB

0+mg(1)=12mv2+mg×0.5

v=g=10 m s-1
