In a water-fall the water falls from a height of 100m. If the entire K.E. of water is converted into heat, the rise in temperature of water will be
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
The potential energy of the water at the top of the waterfall is converted into kinetic energy, which is then converted into heat. Using the formula , we can solve for the change in temperature, which is approximately 0.23°C.
