  • A
    The ball will always return to him.
  • B
    The ball will fall behind him if the cart moves with some acceleration.
  • C
    The ball will return to him if the cart moves with constant velocity.
  • D

Two trains,one of length $100 \, m$ and another of length $125 \, m$,are moving in mutually opposite directions along parallel lines. They meet each other,each with a speed of $10 \, m/s$. If their accelerations are $0.3 \, m/s^2$ and $0.2 \, m/s^2$ respectively,then the time they take to pass each other will be ......... $s$.

Two stones are thrown up simultaneously with initial speeds of $u_1$ and $u_2$ $(u_2 > u_1)$. They hit the ground after $6 \, s$ and $10 \, s$ respectively. Which graph in the figure correctly represents the time variation of $\Delta x = (x_2 - x_1)$,the relative position of the second stone with respect to the first up to $t = 10 \, s$? Assume that the stones do not rebound after hitting the ground.
