When a body is thrown up in a lift with ...

When a body is thrown up in a lift with a velocity `u` relative to the lift, the time of flight is found to be `t`. The acceleration with which the lift is moving up is

A

`("u-gt")/(t)`

B

`("u+gt")/(t)`

C

`("2u-gt")/(t)`

D

`("2u+gt")/(t)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

We have , `S_(rel)=u_(rel)t+(1)/(2)a_(rel)t^(2)`
`implies 0 = ut-(1)/(2)(a+g)t^(2)`
`implies a = (2u)/(t)-g=(2u-"gt")/(t)`

A particle is thrown up inside a stationary lift of sufficient height. The time of flight is T. Now it is thrown again with same initial speed v_0 with respect to lift. At the time of second throw, lift is moving up with speed v_0 and uniform acceleration g upward (the acceleration due to gravity). The new time of flight is:
