JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 2. motion in straight line

A body travels \(102.5 \mathrm{~m}\) in \(\mathrm{n}^{\text {th }}\) second and \(115.0 \mathrm{~m}\) in \((n+2)^{\text {th }}\) second. The acceleration is what?

  1. A  \(9 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\)
  2. B \(6.25 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\)
  3. C \(12.5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\)
  4. D \(5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(6.25 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \(102.5=\mathrm{u}+\frac{\mathrm{a}}{2}(2 \mathrm{n}-1) \&\) \(115=\mathrm{u}+\frac{\mathrm{a}}{2}(2 \mathrm{n}+3)\) \(\Rightarrow 102.5=\mathrm{u}+\mathrm{an}-\frac{\mathrm{a}}{2} \&\) \(115=\mathrm{u}+\mathrm{an}+\frac{3 \mathrm{a}}{2}\)…
