  • 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 2008]

    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 :

    [b] 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
    \[\therefore \,\,200J<K<5000J\]
