A) 5 m/s
B) 10 m/s
C) 15 m/s
D) 20 m/s
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Key Idea: Maximum kinetic energy of swing should be equal to difference in potential energies to conserve energy. From energy conservation \[\frac{1}{2}mv_{\max }^{2}=mg({{H}_{2}}-{{H}_{1}})\] Here,\[{{\text{H}}_{\text{1}}}\text{=}\]maximum height of swing from earths surface \[=0.75\,m\] \[{{H}_{2}}=\]maximum height of swing from earths surface \[=2\,m\] \[\therefore \] \[\frac{1}{2}mv_{\max }^{2}=mg(2-0.75)\] or \[{{v}_{\max }}=\sqrt{2\times 10\times 1.25}=\sqrt{25}=5\,m/s\]
