In a car race, car A takes a time t less than car B at the finish and passes the finishing point with speed v more than that of the car B. Assuming that both the cars start from rest and travel with constant acceleration `a_1 and a_2` respectively. Show that `v=sqrt (a_1 a_2) t.`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts


`v_(P)-v_(Q)=v_(0)`
`t_(Q)-t_(P)=t_(0)`
`(v_(P)-v_(Q))/(t_(Q)-t_(P))=(sqrt(2alphad)-sqrt(2betad))/(sqrt((2d)/beta)-sqrt((2d)/alpha))=v_(0)/t_(0)`
`{:[("Car P": d=1/2alpha_P^2rArrt_P=sqrt((2d)/(alpha))),(v_P^2=2alphadrArrv_P=sqrt(2alphad)),("Similarly for car Q.")]:}`
`(sqrt(alpha)-sqrt(beta))/(1/sqrt(beta)-1/sqrt(alpha))=(sqrt(alpha)-sqrt(beta))/(((sqrt(alpha)-sqrt(beta))/sqrt(alpha beta)))=v_(0)/t_(0)`
`v_(0)=sqrt(alphabeta)t_(0)`

In a car race, car A takes time t less than car B and passes the finishing point with a velocity of 12m//s more than the velocity with which car B passes the finishing point. Assume that the cars A and B start from rest and travel with constant acceleration of 9 m//s^(2) and 4 m//s^(2) , respectively. If v_(A) and v_(B) be the velocities of cars A and B, respectively, then

Starting from rest a particle is first accelerated for time t_1 with constant acceleration a_1 and then stops in time t_2 with constant retardation a_2. Let v_1 be the average velocity in this case and s_1 the total displacement. In the second case it is accelerating for the same time t_1 with constant acceleration 2a_1 and come to rest with constant retardation a_2 in time t_3. If v_2 is the average velocity in this case and s_2 the total displacement, then
