Analyzing +4 | -1

A passenger is standing on the platform at the beginning of the

n^{\text {th }}\left(=3^{\text {rd }}\right)

coach of a train. The train starts moving with constant acceleration. The third coach passes by the passenger in

\Delta t_1=5.0 \mathrm{~s}

and rest of the train (including the

3^{\text {rd }}

coach) in

\Delta t_2=20 \mathrm{~s}

. In what time interval

\Delta t

(in sec) did the last coach passed by the passenger?

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

0.64 s

The correct answer is A (0.64 s) because it is calculated by finding the time taken for the last coach to pass using kinematic equations and the given information.

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)

second is

120 \mathrm{~m}

and change in velocity is

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

. Find its displacement (in

\mathrm{m}

) in

(t+2)

second. An aeroplane flies 400m north and 300m south and then flies 1200m upwards, then net displacement is
