A fish with weight 35 kg dives and hits the ground (zero height) with kinetic energy equal to 3500J. Find the height through which fish dived. Take g = 10 m/s2
10 m
Kinetic energy of fish on hitting the ground would be equal to the potential energy at maximum height when it starts diving, so,
m x g x h = K.E
35 x 10 x h = 3500J
h = 10 m
