Question

A bullet is fired vertically upwards with an initial velocity of 50 ms–1. It covers a distance h1 during the first second and a distance h2 distance the last 3 seconds of its upward motion. If g = 10ms–2h1 and h2 will be related as

Solution

Correct option is

 

The total time taken by the bullet to reach the highest point (where its velocity becomes zero) is given by 0 = u – gt or t = u/g = 50/10 = 5 s. The distance it covers in the first 1 seconds of its upward motion is

        

           

           

Now, the velocity of the bullet at the end of first 2 seconds is . This is the initial velocity for the last 3 seconds of upward motion. The distance covered in the last 3 seconds is,

        

           

Thus        h1 = h2.
