The distance moved by a freely falling body (starting from rest) during ` st, 2nd, 3rd,……nth` second of its motion are proportional to .

A

(n-1)

B

(2n-1)

C

`(n^(2)-1)`

D

`(2n-1)//n^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`s_(n) = g(n-(1)/(2))`, Ratio ` = (g)/(2) : (3g)/(2), (5g)/(2) ……… (2n-1) (g)/(2)`
`s_(n) prop (2n-1)`
