- MCQ
An engine of a train, moving with uniform acceleration, passes the signal-post with velocity \(u\) and the last compartment with velocity \(v\). The velocity with which middle point of the train passes the signal post is
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\sqrt{\frac{ v ^{2}+ u ^{2}}{2}}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\left( v ^{\prime}\right)^{2}= u ^{2}+2 ad\)
\(v ^{2}=\left( v ^{\prime}\right)^{2}+2 ad\)
solving, we get
\(v^{\prime}=\sqrt{\frac{v^{2}+u^{2}}{2}}\)
