Question

A stone falls freely under gravity. It covers distances $h_1, \, h_2 $ and $h_3$ in the first 5 seconds, the next 5 seconds and the next 5 seconds respectively. The relation between $h_1 , \,h_2 $ and $h_3$ is

• A. $h_1 = 2h_2 = 3h_3$
• B. $h_1 = \frac{h_2}3 = \frac{h_3}5$
• C. $h_2 = 3h_1$ and $3h_2 = 3h_2 $
• D. $h_1 = h_2 = h_3$

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The correct option is (B): $h_1 = \frac{h_2}3 = \frac{h_3}5$
