प्रश्न
An object is thrown vertically upwards. It rises upto a height H and then returns to its initial position. Calculate
The total distance traveled by the object
Advertisements
उत्तर
Total dist ance travelled = dist ance from A to B +distance from B to A
So total distance = H +H = 2H.

Which vehicle is moving with a constant acceleration?
An object is dropped from rest at a height of 150 m and simultaneously another object is dropped from rest at a height of 100 m. What is the difference in their heights after 2s if both the objects drop with the same accelerations? How does the difference in heights vary with time?
Displacement can be zero but distance never.
