A trolley was moving horizontally on a smooth ground with velocity `v` with respect to the earth. Suddenly a man starts running from rear end of the trolley with a velocity `(3//2)v` with respect to the trolley. After reaching the other end, the man turns back and continues running with a velocity `(3//2)v` with respect to trolley in opposite direction. If the length of the trolley is L, find the displacement of the man with respect to earth when he reaches the starting point on the trolley. Mass of the trolley is equal to the mass of the man.

A

`( 4)/(3) L`

B

`( 2)/( 3) L`

C

`( 5) /( 3) L`

D

`1.5L`

A trolley is moving horizontally with a constant velocty of v m//s w.e.t. earth. A man starts running from one end of the trolley with velocity 1.5v m//s w.r.t. to trolley. After reaching the opposite end, the man return back and continues running with a velocity of 1.5 v m//s w.r.t. the trolley in the baclward direction. If the length of the trolley is L then the displacement of the man with respect to earth during the process will be :-

The figure shows a man of mass m standing at the end A of a trolley of maas M placed at rest on a smooth horizontal surface. The man starts moving towards the end B with a velocity u_(rel) with respect to the trolley. The length of the trolley is L. The velocity of the man with respect to ground v_(1) will be:
