  • question_answer
    An athlete in the olympic games covers a distance of 100m in 10s. His kinetic energy can be estimated to be in the range       AIEEE  Solved  Paper-2007

    A) 20,000 J - 50,000 J           

    B) 2,000 J - 5,000 J

    C) 200 J - 500 J

    D) \[2\times {{10}^{5}}J-3\times {{10}^{5}}J\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Assuming average speed of athlete to be v \[v=\frac{100cm}{10\sec }=10m{{s}^{-1}}\] \[\therefore \] estimated kinetic energy \[K=\frac{1}{2}m{{v}^{2}}\] Let mass of athlete lies between 40 kg and 100 kg \[\therefore \,\,\,\,2000J<K<5000J\]
