A body A moves with a uniform acceleration a and zero initial velocity. Another body B, starts from the same point moves in the same direction with a constant velocity v. The two bodies meet after a time t. The value of t is

A

`(2v)/(a)`

B

`v/a`

C

`(v)/(2a)`

D

`sqrt((v)/(2a))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`1/2 at^2 = vt`
`rArr t (1/2 at - v) = 0`
` t = 0, t = (2v)/(a)`
