उत्तर
The relative velocity of the ball w.r.t. the moving frame is given by \[v_r = v - v_0\]
(a) Initial kinetic energy of the ball =\[\frac{1}{2}m {v_r}^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(v - v_0 )^2\]
Also, final kinetic energy of the ball =\[\frac{1}{2}m(0 - v_0 )^2 = \frac{1}{2}m {v_0}^2\]
(b) Work done by the kinetic friction = final kinetic energy - initial kinetic energy

The US athlete Florence Griffith-Joyner won the 100 m sprint gold medal at Seoul Olympics in 1988, setting a new Olympic record of 10⋅54 s. Assume that she achieved her maximum speed in a very short time and then ran the race with that speed till she crossed the line. Take her mass to be 50 kg. Calculate the kinetic energy of Griffith-Joyner at her full speed.
