Solution

The correct option is B 1:3:5
S=ut+12gt2S=ut+12gt2, u=0u=0
S=12gt2S=12gt2
Here s is displacement.
Distance dropped in 1st1st second, S1=12g×(1)2=12g×1S1=12g×(1)2=12g×1
Distance dropped in 2nd2nd second, S2=12g×(2)212g×(1)2=12g×3S2=12g×(2)2−12g×(1)2=12g×3
Distance dropped in 3rd3rd second, S3=12g×(3)212g×(2)2=12g×5S3=12g×(3)2−12g×(2)2=12g×5
S1:S2:S3=1:3:5
