  2. B t1>t2
  3. C t1t2
  4. D t1=t2
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) t1>t2

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

When the object is dropped in a stationary lift from height h, s=ut+12at2-h=0t1+12-gt12t1=2hg When the object is dropped from a lift which is moving up with an acceleration a, then a pseudo force will act on the object since the object is in a non-inertial frame of…
