Energy — InclineMediumQuestion 30422
Question
A 3 kg block slides from rest down a smooth incline of height 5 m. Speed at the bottom is: (g = 10 m/s²)
- A5 m/s
- B10 m/sCorrect
- C15 m/s
- D√50 m/s
Correct answer
10 m/s
Explanation
Using energy conservation: ½mv² = mgh → v = √(2gh) = √(2×10×5) = √100 = 10 m/s.
