NEET Physics Potential Energy MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Hard-Class 11

A ball of mass 0.5 kg is dropped from a height of 10 m. Neglecting air resistance, what is its speed just before it hits the ground?

A

10 m/s

B

14 m/s

C

20 m/s

D

28 m/s

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

Using the equation v^2 = 2gh, where g = 9.8 m/s^2 and h = 10 m, the speed v is calculated as v = sqrt(2 * 9.8 * 10) = 14 m/s.
