$A$ particle is dropped vertically from rest from a height. The time taken by it to fall through successive distances of $1\, m$ each will then be

  • A
    All equal,being equal to $\sqrt{2/g}$ seconds
  • B
    In the ratio of the square roots of the integers $1, 2, 3, \dots$
  • C
    In the ratio of the difference in the square roots of the integers,i.e.,$\sqrt{1}, (\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{1}), (\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2}), (\sqrt{4} - \sqrt{3}), \dots$
  • D
    In the ratio of the reciprocal of the square roots of the integers,i.e.,$\frac{1}{\sqrt{1}}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{4}}, \dots$

$A$ ball is thrown vertically upwards with a speed of $10 \ m/s$ from the top of a tower $200 \ m$ high and another is thrown vertically downwards with the same speed simultaneously. The time difference between them in reaching the ground (in $s$) is: $(g = 10 \ m/s^2)$

From the top of a tower,a particle is thrown vertically downwards with a velocity of $10\; m/s$. The ratio of the distances covered by it in the $3^{rd}$ and $2^{nd}$ seconds of the motion is (Take $g = 10\; m/s^2$).

Two bodies having masses in the ratio $2:3$ fall freely under gravity from heights which are in the ratio $9:16$. The ratio of their linear momenta on touching the ground is

What is free fall? Write the equations of uniformly accelerated motion for an object falling freely.

$A$ ball is projected vertically up from the ground. Boy $A$,standing at the window of the first floor of a nearby building,observes that the time interval between the ball crossing him while going up and the ball crossing him while going down is $2 \ s$. Another boy $B$,standing on the second floor,notices the time interval between the ball passing him twice,during up and down motion,is $1 \ s$. Calculate the difference between the vertical positions of boy $B$ and boy $A$. (Assume $g = 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$) (in $m$)
