Q34 · Physics

Consider a drop of rain water having mass 1 g falling from a height of 1 km. It hits the ground with a speed of 50 m/s. Take 'g' constant with a value 10 m/s2\mathrm{m/s^2}. The work done by the (i) gravitational force and the (ii) resistive force of air is :

  1. 1(i) −10-10 J (ii) −8.25-8.25 J
  2. 2(i) 1.25 J (ii) −8.25-8.25 J
  3. 3(i) 100 J (ii) 8.75 J
  4. 4(i) 10 J (ii) −8.75-8.75 JOfficial answer
