A bus starts moving with acceleration 2 ...

A bus starts moving with acceleration `2 ms^(-2)`. A cyclist `96 m` behind the nus starts simultaneously towards the bus at a constant speed of `20 m s^(-1)`
After some time the bus will be left behind. If bus continues moving with the same acceelration, after what time from the begining, the bus will overtake the cyclist ?

A

`10 s`

B

`12 s`

C

`14 s`

D

`16 s`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

b. It is quite clear from the above explanation that the bus will overtadke the cyclist after `12 s`.
