$A$ body is projected vertically upwards with a velocity of $20 \,m \,s^{-1}$. If the potential energy of the body at a height of $5 \,m$ from the ground is $100 \,J$, then the kinetic energy of the body at a height of $10 \,m$ from the ground is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,m \,s^{-2}$) (in $\,J$)

  • A

$A$ balloon filled with helium rises against gravity,increasing its potential energy. The speed of the balloon also increases as it rises. How do you reconcile this with the law of conservation of mechanical energy? You can neglect viscous drag of air and assume that the density of air is constant.

$A$ block of mass $m$ moving with a velocity $v_0$ on a smooth horizontal surface strikes and compresses a spring of stiffness $k$ until the mass comes to rest,as shown in the figure. This phenomenon is observed by two observers:
$A$: standing on the horizontal surface
$B$: standing on the block
To an observer $A$,the net work done on the block is

If mechanical work is done on an object,does its kinetic energy increase or decrease?

The displacement-time graph of a particle moving in a straight line is as shown in the figure. Select the correct alternative.

$A$ particle,initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface,is acted upon by a horizontal force which is constant in size and direction. $A$ graph is plotted between the work done $(W)$ on the particle and the speed of the particle $(v)$. If there are no other horizontal forces acting on the particle,the graph would look like:
