A particle of mass 10 g moves in a straight line with retardation 2x, where x is the displacement in SI units. Its loss of kinetic energy for above displacement is ((10)/x)⁻ⁿ J. The value of n will be .

Question

Accepted Answer

2. a=-2x⇒ v dv=-2x dx⇒1/2v²-1/2v₀²=-x². Loss of kinetic energy: m x²=0.01x²=(x²)/(100)=((10)/x)⁻² J. n=2.
