To find the ratio of the times taken to fall successive equal distances for a freely falling body, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the Equal Distances Let the equal distance fallen in each interval be \( S_0 \). Therefore, the distances fallen in the first, second, and third intervals can be represented as follows: - First distance \( S_1 = S_0 \) - Second distance \( S_2 = 2S_0 \) - Third distance \( S_3 = 3S_0 \) ...
