Current Question (ID: 9863)

Question:
$\text{A bolt of mass 0.3 kg falls from the ceiling of an elevator moving down at a uniform speed of 7 m/s. It hits the floor of the elevator (length of the elevator = 3 m) and does not rebound. What is the heat produced by the impact?}$
Options:
  • 1. $8.82 \text{ J}$
  • 2. $7.65 \text{ J}$
  • 3. $7.01 \text{ J}$
  • 4. $7.98 \text{ J}$
Solution:
$\text{Hint: Heat produced is equal to the change in potential energy.}$ $\text{Mass of the bolt, } m = 0.3 \text{ kg}$ $\text{Speed of the elevator } = 7 \text{ m s}^{-1}$ $\text{Height, } h = 3\text{m}$ $\text{Step 1: Calculate the loss in potential energy.}$ $\text{Loss of P.E. } = mgh$ $\text{Step 2: Find the heat produced.}$ $\text{Since the relative velocity of the bolt with respect to the lift is zero, the potential energy gets converted into heat at the time of impact.}$ $\text{The heat produced = Loss of P.E.}$ $mgh = 0.3 \times 9.8 \times 3 = 8.82 \text{ J}$
