A particle is placed at the point A of a frictionless track ABC as shown in figure. It is gently pushed toward right. The speed of the particle when it reaches the point B is : (Take g=10m/s2 ).
(A)20m/s
(B)10m/s✓ Correct
(C)210m/s
(D)10m/s
Answer: (B)
Solution
By energy conservation from A to B (particle released from rest at height 1 m, B at height 0.5 m):
mg(1)=21mv2+mg(0.5)⇒v2=g=10⇒v=10m/s.
