GEO 2021Q69
Q: A stone of mass 1 kg and initially at rest is dropped from a tower of height 40 m. When it reaches a height of 10 m from the ground level, what will be the values of its potential energy (PE) and kinetic energy (KE)? (Acceleration due to gravity is 10 m/s²)
(a)PE = 300 J, KE = 100 J
(b)PE = 300 J, KE = 200 J
(c)PE = 100 J, KE = 300 J
(d)PE = 100 J, KE = 200 J
Correct Answer: (c)
