A drone starts from rest and accelerates vertically upward at . At , a small bolt detaches from the drone. What is the speed and magnitude of acceleration of the bolt at ? (Take )
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
B.
Step-by-step solution
Velocity of the drone at is given by .
When the bolt detaches, it acquires the velocity of the drone at that instant. Thus, the initial velocity of the bolt is (upward).
After detaching, the bolt falls freely under gravity. Its acceleration is (downward).
The time elapsed from detachment to is .
Velocity of the bolt at is .
The negative sign indicates downward direction. The speed of the bolt is .
The magnitude of acceleration of the bolt is .
