The kinetic energy acquired by a mass (m) in travelling distance (s) starting from rest under the action of a constant force is directly proportional to
-
- 1 / √m
- 1/m
- √m
- m0
Correct Option: D
K.E. = | mv2 | |
2 |
Further, v2 = u2 + 2as = 0 + 2ad = 2ad
= 2(F / m)d
Hence , K.E. = | m × 2(F / m)d = Fd | |
2 |
or, K.E. acquired = Work done
= F × d = constant. i.e., it is independent of mass m.
