An arrow fired from a bow attains a maximum height of 5m from the level it is released. If the mass of the arrow is 500 grams, work done by the bow on the arrow is greater than which of the following? (Assume, g = 10 m/s2)
20J
25J
The work done by the bow on the arrow would be equal to the maximum gravitational potential energy stored in it, which would be equal to "m x g x h"
m×g×h=5001000×10×5=25 J
