we drop a magnet with mass 1.3 kg through a conducting loop starting from height 2.11 meters above the ground. the resistance of the loop plus the induced current dissipates some of the energy as heat. we observe the mass landing with a speed of 0.9 meters/second. how much energy was lost to heat? you may take g to be 9.8 m/s^2 and ignore all other forces than gravity and electricity magnetism.
