    A steel ball of mass 0.1 kg falls freely from a height of 10 m and bounces to a height of 5.4 m from the ground. If the dissipated energy in this process is absorbed by the ball. the rise in its temperature is: (The specific heat of steel is \[460\text{ }J/\text{ }kg\text{ }{}^\circ C\])

    A) \[0.01\text{ }{}^\circ C\]                              

    B) \[0.1\text{ }{}^\circ C\]

    C) \[7\text{ }{}^\circ C\]

    D) \[1.1\text{ }{}^\circ C\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     Energy dissipated in the process\[=m\,g({{h}_{1}}-{{h}_{2}})\] This energy is absorbed by the ball, if rise in temperature of the ball is t, then\[mg({{h}_{1}}-{{h}_{2}})=m\,\,s\,t\] s = specific heat of the material of the ball \[0.1\times 10\times (10-5.4)=0.1\times 460\times t\] \[t=\frac{10\times 4.6}{460}\]    \[=0.1{{\,}^{o}}C\]
