MCQ
A ball is dropped from an elevator moving upward with acceleration ' $a$ ' by a boy standing in it. The acceleration of ball with respect to [Take upward direction positive]
- ABoy is $-g$
- BBoy is $-(g+a)$
- CGround is $-g$
- ✓Both $(b)$ and $(c)$
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
Both $(b)$ and $(c)$
d
(d)
(d)
Upward direction $\rightarrow$ Positive
Negative direction $\rightarrow$ Negative
If a person is observing from ground then, for him the acceleration of ball is in the downward direction.
$a_{ ball G}=a_{ ball }-a_{\text {ground }}=-g-0$
$a_{ bG }=-g$
$a_{b G}=$ Acceleration of ball w.r.t. ground.
$a_{\text {ball boy }}=a_{\text {ball }}-a_{\text {boy }}=-g-a$
$a_{b b}=-(g+a), a_{b b}=$ Acceleration of ball w.r.t. boy.
