The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the displacements \( x_1, x_2, x_3 \) covered by three particles projected upwards with initial speeds \( u_1 = 10 \, \text{m/s} \), \( u_2 = 20 \, \text{m/s} \), and \( u_3 = 30 \, \text{m/s} \) during their last second of motion. ### Step 1: Understand the motion When a particle is projected upwards, it will eventually stop momentarily at its highest point before falling back down. The displacement covered in the last second of motion can be calculated using the equations of motion. ### Step 2: Use the equation of motion The displacement \( s \) during the last second of motion can be calculated using the formula: \[ s = u \cdot t - \frac{1}{2} g t^2 \] where: - \( u \) is the initial velocity, - \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately \( 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \)), - \( t \) is the time interval (which is \( 1 \, \text{s} \) for the last second). ### Step 3: Calculate \( x_1 \) for the first particle For the first particle with \( u_1 = 10 \, \text{m/s} \): \[ x_1 = u_1 \cdot 1 - \frac{1}{2} g \cdot (1)^2 \] \[ x_1 = 10 \cdot 1 - \frac{1}{2} \cdot 10 \cdot 1^2 \] \[ x_1 = 10 - 5 = 5 \, \text{m} \] ### Step 4: Calculate \( x_2 \) for the second particle For the second particle with \( u_2 = 20 \, \text{m/s} \): \[ x_2 = u_2 \cdot 1 - \frac{1}{2} g \cdot (1)^2 \] \[ x_2 = 20 \cdot 1 - \frac{1}{2} \cdot 10 \cdot 1^2 \] \[ x_2 = 20 - 5 = 15 \, \text{m} \] ### Step 5: Calculate \( x_3 \) for the third particle For the third particle with \( u_3 = 30 \, \text{m/s} \): \[ x_3 = u_3 \cdot 1 - \frac{1}{2} g \cdot (1)^2 \] \[ x_3 = 30 \cdot 1 - \frac{1}{2} \cdot 10 \cdot 1^2 \] \[ x_3 = 30 - 5 = 25 \, \text{m} \] ### Step 6: Find the ratio \( x_1 : x_2 : x_3 \) Now we have: - \( x_1 = 5 \, \text{m} \) - \( x_2 = 15 \, \text{m} \) - \( x_3 = 25 \, \text{m} \) The ratio \( x_1 : x_2 : x_3 \) is: \[ x_1 : x_2 : x_3 = 5 : 15 : 25 \] Dividing each term by 5 gives: \[ 1 : 3 : 5 \] ### Final Answer The ratio of displacements covered by the three particles in their last second of motion is: \[ \boxed{1 : 3 : 5} \]

To solve the problem, we need to find the displacements \( x_1, x_2, x_3 \) covered by three particles projected upwards with initial speeds \( u_1 = 10 \, \text{m/s} \), \( u_2 = 20 \, \text{m/s} \), and \( u_3 = 30 \, \text{m/s} \) during their last second of motion. ### Step 1: Understand the motion When a particle is projected upwards, it will eventually stop momentarily at its highest point before falling back down.
