1,556.

A body of mass 20g projected vertically upwards in vacuum returns to the point of projection after 1.2s. [g = 10ms-2]. Determine the potential energy of the body at the maximum height of its motion

A.

0.36J

B.

0.72J

C.

360.00J

D.

720.00J

Correct answer is A

P.E at max = K.E on projection

= \(\frac{1}{2}\)mv2 = \(\frac{1}{2} \times 0.02 \times 6^2 = 0.36J\)

The total area under a force-velocity graph represents

A.

energy

B.

momentum

C.

power

D.
