Physics · MOTION IN A STRAIGHT LINE
हिन्दीA body is released from rest from a great height and falls freely under gravity. The ratio of the distance covered by the body in the \( 1^{\text{st}} \), \( 2^{\text{nd}} \), \( 3^{\text{rd}} \), and \( 4^{\text{th}} \) second of its fall is:
Correct answer · Option 2
1 : 3 : 5 : 7
Explanation
Distance in \( n^{\text{th}} \) second \( D_n = \frac{1}{2}g(2n-1) \). For \( n = 1, 2, 3, 4 \), the distances are in ratio \( 1 : 3 : 5 : 7 \) (Galileo's law of odd numbers).
