A table tennis ball has radius and mass . It is slowly pushed down into a swimming pool to a depth of below the water surface and then released from rest. It emerges from the water surface at speed , without getting wet, and rises up to a height . Which of the following option(s) is(are) correct?
[Given: , density of water , viscosity of water -s.]
  1. (A)The work done in pushing the ball to the depth is 0.077 J.✓ Correct
  2. (B)If we neglect the viscous force in water, then the speed .✓ Correct
  3. (C)If we neglect the viscous force in water, then the height .
  4. (D)The ratio of the magnitudes of the net force excluding the viscous force to the maximum viscous force in water is 500/9.

Answer: (A), (B)

Solution

(A) Work done by external force equals the net potential energy change. Since the ball is pushed slowly (quasi-static), kinetic energy is zero throughout. The work done is:



(B) Neglecting viscous force, using energy conservation from depth to surface:




(C) After emerging, the ball rises to height:

This does not match 1.4 m, so (C) is incorrect.

Options (A) and (B) are correct.
