Application +4 | -1

A scooter accelerates from rest for time

{t_1}

at constant rate

{a_1}

and then retards at constant rate

{a_2}

for time

{t_2}

and comes to rest. The correct value

\frac{{{t_1}}}{{{t_2}}}

of will be

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

\frac{{{a_2}}}{{{a_1}}}

Option B (

\frac{{{a_2}}}{{{a_1}}}

) is correct because the ratio of times is inversely proportional to the ratio of accelerations.

Assertion: In a free fall, the initial velocity of a body may not be zero.
Reason: Free fall means the vertical acceleration of the body is equal to

\mathrm{g}

. A ball is thrown vertically upward with speed 15 m/s and it returns to the ground with speed 10 m/s as a constant air resistance acts. The maximum height attained by the ball is Which of the following is not a derived quantites? Assertion: If a body is dropped from the top of a tower of height

\mathrm{h}

and another body is thrown up simultaneously with velocity

\mathrm{u}

from the foot of the tower, then both of them would meet after a time

\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{u}}

.
Reason: For a body projected upwards, the distance covered by the body in the last second of its upward journey is always

4.9 \mathrm{~m}

irrespective of velocity of projection.

(\mathrm{g}=9.8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2)

A particle is having uniform acceleration. If its displacement from

t

(t+1)

120 \mathrm{~m}

and change in velocity is

50 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}

. Find its displacement (in
