JEE Main & Advanced Sample Paper JEE Main - Mock Test - 43

  • question_answer
    Two trains A and B each of length 400 m are moving on two parallel tracks in the same direction (with A ahead of B) with same speed\[72\,km/h\]. The driver of B decides to overtake A and accelerates by\[1\,m/{{s}^{2}}\]. If after 50s. B just brushes past A, calculate the original distance between A and B.

    A) \[750\,m\]

    B)        \[1000\,m\]

    C) \[1250\,m\]

    D)        \[2250\,m\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    For train A, \[{{u}_{A}}=72km/h=72\times \frac{5}{18}m/s=20m/s\] For train B, \[{{u}_{B}}=72km/h=72\times \frac{5}{18}m/s=20m/s\] \[\therefore \,\,{{u}_{BA}}={{u}_{B}}-{{u}_{A}}=20m/s-20m/s=0m/s\] \[{{a}_{BA}}={{a}_{B}}-{{a}_{A}}=1m/{{s}^{2}}-0m/{{s}^{2}}=1m/{{s}^{2}}\] \[t=50s\] \[{{S}_{BA}}={{u}_{BA}}t+\frac{1}{2}{{a}_{BA}}{{t}^{2}}=0\times 60+\frac{1}{2}\times 1\times {{\left( 50 \right)}^{2}}=1250m.\]
