A target is made of two plates, one of wood and the other of iron. The thickness of the wooden plate is 4 cm and that of iron plate is 2 cm. A bullet fired goes through the wood first and then penetrates 1 cm into iron. A similar bullet fired with the same velocity from opposite direction goes through iron first and then penetrates 2cm into wood. If a1{a_1} and a2{a_2} be the retardation offered to the bullet by wood and iron plates respectively, then
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
a2=2a1{a_2} = 2{a_1}
Option B (a2=2a1{a_2} = 2{a_1}) is correct because the retardation offered by iron is twice that of wood, derived from the equations of motion.
