MCQ
A ball is dropped from height $5\,\,m$. The time after which ball stops rebounding if coefficient of restitution between ball and ground $e = 1/2$, is ............. $\mathrm{sec}$
  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • $3$
  • D
    infinite

Answer

Correct option: C.
$3$
c
$t=\frac{u}{g} \propto e \Rightarrow t \sqrt{\frac{2 h}{g}}\left[1+2\left(e+e^{2}+e^{3}+\ldots \infty\right)\right]=3 s$

This question has Statement $1$ and Statement $2.$ Of the four choices given after the Statements, choose the one that best describes the two Statements.

Statement $1:$ A metallic surface is irradiated by a monochromatic light of frequency $v > v_0$ (the threshold frequency). If the incident frequency is now doubled, the photocurrent and the maximum kinetic energy are also doubled.

Statement $2:$ The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted from a surface is linearly dependent on the frequency of the incident light. The photocurrent depends only on the intensity of the incident light.
