MCQ
A machine which is $75$ percent efficient, uses $12 $ joules of energy in lifting up a $1\, kg$ mass through a certain distance. The mass is then allowed to fall through that distance. The velocity at the end of its fall is (in $m{s^{ - 1}})$
  • A
    $\sqrt {24} $
  • B
    $\sqrt {32} $
  • $\sqrt {18} $
  • D
    $\sqrt 9 $

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\sqrt {18} $
c
(c)Potential energy of a body $= 75J$ of $ 12 \%$ 
$mgh = 9 \,J$

==> $h = \frac{9}{{1 \times 10}} = 0.9m$
Now when this mass allow to fall then it acquire velocity
$v = \sqrt {2gh} = \sqrt {2 \times 10 \times 0.9} = \sqrt {18} $m/s.
