COMEDK2019PhysicsMotion in One Dimension
A balloon is rising vertically up with a velocity of 29 ~ms ⁻¹ , A stone is dropped from it and it reaches the ground in 10 ~s . The height of the balloon when the stone was dropped from it is (g=9.8 ~ms ⁻² )
Options
- A100 ~m
- B200 ~m
- C400 ~m
- D150 ~m
Correct answer
B. 200 ~m
Step-by-step solution
Civen, velocity of the balloon =29 ~ms ⁻¹ When the stone is dropped, then the velocity of the stone u=29 ~ms ⁻¹ Time taken to reach the ground, t=10 ~s From the second equation of motion, aligned s &=-u t+ 1 2 g t² &=-29 10+ 1 2 9.8 (10)² &=-290+490=200 ~m aligned
