Two boys are standing at the ends A and ...

Two boys are standing at the ends A and B of a ground, where `AB=a`. The boy at B starts running in a direction perpendicular to AB with velocity `v_(1)`. The boy at A starts running simultaneously with velocity v and catches the other boy in a time t, where t is :

A

`(a)/(sqrt(v^(2)+v_(1)^(2)))`

B

`sqrt((a^(2))/(sqrt(v^(2)-v_(1)^(2))))`

C

`(a)/((v-v_(1)))`

D

`(a)/((v+v_(1)))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B


Ac=vt , BC =` v_(1)t`
`:' AB= sqrt(AC^(2)-BC^(2))`
`:. a=sqrt(v^(2)t^(2)-v_(1)t^(2))impliest=(a)/(sqrt(v^(2)-v_(1)^(2)))`
