    A body freely falling from the rest has a velocity v after his falls through a height h. The distance, it has to fall down further for its velocity becomes double, is

    A)  \[4\text{ }h\]                    

    B)  \[2\text{ }s\]

    C)  \[1/\sqrt{2}s\]                 

    D)  \[\sqrt{2}s\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Here, initial velocity of the body \[{{v}_{1}}=v\] Initial height \[h=hc\] Final velocity of the body \[{{v}^{2}}=2v\] Now, from the equation of motion \[{{v}^{2}}={{u}^{2}}+2gh\] \[{{v}^{2}}\propto h\] So, \[{{\left[ \frac{{{v}_{1}}}{{{v}_{2}}} \right]}^{2}}=\left[ \frac{{{h}_{1}}}{{{h}_{2}}} \right]\] Or, \[{{\left[ \frac{v}{2v} \right]}^{2}}=\frac{h}{{{h}_{2}}}\] Or, \[\frac{h}{{{h}_{2}}}=\frac{1}{4}\] Or, \[{{h}_{2}}=4h\]
