MCQ
An elevator car, whose floor to ceiling distance is equal to $2.7 m$, starts ascending with constant acceleration of $1.2 ms$. $2 sec$ after the start, a bolt begins fallings from the ceiling of the car. The free fall time of the bolt is
  • A
    $\sqrt{0.54} s$
  • B
    $\sqrt{6} s$
  • $0.7 s$
  • D
    $1 s$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$0.7 s$
(c) $t=\sqrt{\frac{2 h}{(g+a)}}=\sqrt{\frac{2 \times 2.7}{(9.8+1.2)}}$ $=\sqrt{\frac{5.4}{11}}=\sqrt{0.49}=0.7 \mathrm{sec}$
As $u=0$ and lift is moving upward with acceleration
