JEE Main & Advanced Physics Work, Energy, Power & Collision / कार्य, ऊर्जा और शक्ति Question Bank Perfectly Inelastic Collision

  • question_answer
    A metal ball of mass 2 kg moving with a velocity of 36 km/h has an head on collision with a stationary ball of mass 3 kg. If after the collision, the two balls move together, the loss in kinetic energy due to collision is [CBSE PMT 1997; AIIMS 2001]

    A)             40 J    

    B)             60 J

    C)             100 J  

    D)             140 J

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    \[v=36\,km/h=10\,m/s\] By law of conservation of momentum \[2\times 10=(2+3)\,V\] Þ \[V=4\,m/s\] Loss in K.E.\[=\frac{1}{2}\times 2\times {{(10)}^{2}}-\frac{1}{2}\times 5\times {{(4)}^{2}}=60\,J\]
