Two objects are moving along the same straight line. They cross a point A With an acceleration a, 2a and velocity 2u, u at time `t = 0.` The distance moved by the object when one overtakes the

A

`(6u^2)/a`

B

`(2u^2)/a`

C

`(4u^2)/a`

D

`(8u^2)/a`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

At the time of overtaking,
`s_1=s_2`
`:. 2ut+1/2at^2=ut+1/2(2a)t^2`
`:. t=(2u)/a`
`:. s_1(ors_2)=(2u)((2u)/a)+1/2(a)((2u)/a)^2`
`=(6u^2)/a`
