When a ruler falls vertically, $5$ different persons catch it with different reaction times. $(g = 9.8 \text{ ms}^{-2})$
$A$. Person $A$ has reaction time of $0.20 \text{ s}$
$B$. Person $B$ has reaction time of $0.22 \text{ s}$
$C$. Person $C$ has reaction time of $0.18 \text{ s}$
$D$. Person $D$ has reaction time of $0.19 \text{ s}$
$E$. Person $E$ has reaction time of $0.21 \text{ s}$
What is the correct order of the distance travelled by the ruler for each person?

  • A
    $B > E > A > C > D$
  • B
    $C > D > A > E > B$
  • C
    $C > D > A > B > E$
  • D
    $B > E > A > D > C$
