Four marbles are dropped from the top of a tower one after the other with an interval of one second. The first one reaches the ground after 4 seconds . When the first one reaches the ground the distance between the first and second, the second and third and the third and forth will be respectively

A

35, 25 and 15m

B

30, 20 and 10mS

C

20, 10 and 5m

D

40, 30 and 20m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

For first marble,` h_(1)=(1)/(2)gxx16=8g`

For second marble, `h_(2)=(1)/(2)gxx9=4.5Omega`
For third marble, `h_(3)=(1)/(2)gxx4=2g`
For fourth marble, `h_(4)=(1)/(2)gxx1=0.5g`
`:.h_(1)-h_(2)=8g-4.5g=3.5g=35m`.
`:.h_(2)-h_(3)=4.5g-2g=2.5g=25m` and
`:.h_(3)-h_(4)=2g-0.5g=1.5g=15m`.
