medium

The ratio of the distances travelled by a freely falling body in the $1^{\text {st }}, 2^{\text {nd }}, 3^{\text {rd }}$ and $4^{\text {th }}$ second :

A

$1: 4: 9: 16$

B

$1: 3: 5: 7$

C

$1: 1: 1: 1$

D

 $1: 2: 3: 4$

(NEET-2022)

Solution

$S _{ nth }= u +\frac{ a }{2}(2 n -1)$

$=0+\frac{ a }{2}(2 n -1)$

$S _{r th } \propto(2 n -1)$

$\Rightarrow S_{1 s }, S _{2 ed }, S _{3 ed }, S _{\text {4th }}$

$=[2(1)-1]:[2(2)-1]:[2(3)-1]:[2(4)-1]$

$=1: 3: 5: 7$
