A helicopter rises from rest on the ground vertically upwards with a constant acceleration g. A food packet is dropped from the helicopter when it is at a height h. The time taken by the packet to reach the ground is close to [gg is the acceleration due to gravity]:A helicopter rises from rest on the ground vertically upwards with a constant acceleration g. A food packet is dropped

Options

  1. At = \dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{h}{g}\right)}
  2. Bt = 1 . 8\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{h}{g}\right)}
  3. Ct = 3 . 4\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{h}{g}\right)}
  4. Dt=2h3gt = \sqrt{\dfrac{2h}{3g}}

Correct answer

C. t = 3 . 4\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{h}{g}\right)}

Step-by-step solution

A helicopter rises from rest on the ground vertically upwards with a constant acceleration g. A food packet is dropped

⇒⇒For upward motion of helicopter

v2=u2+2as{v}^{2} = {u}^{2} + 2as

v2=0+2gh{v}^{2} = 0 + 2gh

v=2ghv = \sqrt{2gh}

⇒⇒ Now particle will start moving under gravity.

s=ut+12at2s = ut + \dfrac{1}{2}a{t}^{2}

−h=2ght−12gt2- h = \sqrt{2gh}t - \dfrac{1}{2}g{t}^{2}

then t=2gh±2gh+4×g2×h2×g2t = \dfrac{\sqrt{2gh} \pm \sqrt{2gh + 4 \times \dfrac{g}{2} \times h}}{2 \times \dfrac{g}{2}}

t=2ghg(1+2)t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2gh}{g}} ( 1 + \sqrt{2} )

t=2hg(1+2)t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2h}{g}} ( 1 + \sqrt{2} )
