2.Motion in Straight Line
medium
A bullet moving with a velocity of $200 \,cm/s$ penetrates a wooden block and comes to rest after traversing $4 \,cm$ inside it. What velocity is needed for travelling distance of $9 \,cm$ in same block..........$cm/s$
A
$100$
B
$136.2$
C
$300$
D
$250$
Solution
(c) As ${v^2} = {u^2} – 2as \Rightarrow {u^2} = 2as$
$ \Rightarrow {u^2} \propto s$ ==> $\frac{{{u_2}}}{{{u_1}}} = {\left( {\frac{{{s_2}}}{{{s_1}}}} \right)^{1/2}}$
==> ${u_2} = {\left( {\frac{9}{4}} \right)^{1/2}}{u_1} = \frac{3}{2}{u_1} = 300cm/s$.
