Solution

The correct option is C $v_{2} = \sqrt{23}$
At the lowest point, total energy = $m v^{2} / 2 + 0$
At the horizontal position, total energy = $m v_{2}^{2} / 2 + m g (0.1)$
Using Conservation of energy, we have , $m v_{2}^{2} / 2 = m v^{2} / 2 - m g (0.1)$
solving, we get, $v_{2} = \sqrt{23}$
