A ball falls free from rest. The ratio of distances traveled in first, second, third and fourth second is
1:3:5:7
Step 1: Given:
Step 2: From the second equation of motion:
We know, distance traveled in nth second,
Where u is initial velocity, a is acceleration, t is time, and s is the distance traveled.
=
Let be the distances traveled in the first, second, third, and fourth second respectively.
Step 3: Calculating :
Therefore,
The Ratio is
Hence, the correct option is (D).
