A student is at a distance \(16 \mathrm{~m}\) from a bus when the bus begins to move with a constant acceleration of \(9 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-2}\). The minimum velocity with which the student should run towards the bus so as the catch it is \(\alpha \sqrt{2} \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\). The value of \(\alpha\) is

  1. A \(10\)
  2. B \(12\)
  3. C \(15\)
  4. D \(20\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(12\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(v\) be the minimum velocity of student so,that he could catch the bus If student catch the bus in time \(t\), then distance travelled by student in time \(t\) \(=16+\) distance travelled by bus in time \(t\).…
