A particle of unit mass undergoes one-dimensional motion such that its velocity varies according to $$v\left( x \right) = \beta {x^{ - 2n}}$$ where, $$\beta $$ and $$n$$ are constants and $$x$$ is the position of the particle. The acceleration of the particle as a function of $$x,$$ is given by

A body is projected vertically upwards with a velocity $$u,$$ after time $$t$$ another body is projected vertically upwards from the same point with a velocity $$v,$$ where $$v < u.$$ If they meet as soon as possible, then choose the correct option
A
$$t = \frac{{u - v + \sqrt {{u^2} + {v^2}} }}{g}$$
B
$$t = \frac{{u - v + \sqrt {{u^2} - {v^2}} }}{g}$$
C
$$t = \frac{{u + v + \sqrt {{u^2} - {v^2}} }}{g}$$
D
$$t = \frac{{u - v + \sqrt {{u^2} - {v^2}} }}{{2g}}$$
Let the two bodies meet each other at a height $$h$$ after time $$T$$ of the projection of second body. Then before meeting, the first body was in motion for time $$\left( {t + T} \right)$$ whereas the second body was in motion for time $$T.$$
The distance moved by the first body in time $$\left( {t + T} \right)$$
$$ = u\left( {t + T} \right) - \frac{1}{2}g{\left( {t + T} \right)^2}.$$
And the distance moved by the second body in time
$$T = vT - \frac{1}{2}g{T^2} = h\,\,\left( {{\text{supposed above}}} \right).\,......\left( 1 \right)$$
$$\because $$ The two bodies meet each other,
$$\therefore $$ They are equidistant from the point of projection.
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{Hence,}}\,\,\,u\left( {t + T} \right) - \frac{1}{2}g{\left( {t + T} \right)^2} = vT - \frac{1}{2}g{T^2} \cr
& {\text{or}}\,\,g{t^2} + 2t\left( {gT - u} \right) + 2\left( {v - u} \right)T = 0\,......\left( 2 \right) \cr} $$
Also from (1) we get,
$$h = vT - \frac{1}{2}g{T^2}$$
$$\therefore \frac{{dh}}{{dT}} = v - gT$$
$$\therefore $$ $$h$$ increases as $$T$$ increases
$$\therefore $$ $$T$$ is minimum when $$h$$ is minimum i.e., when
$$\frac{{dh}}{{dT}} = 0,\,\,{\text{i}}{\text{.e}}{\text{.}}\,{\text{when}}\,\,v - gT = 0\,\,{\text{or}}\,\,T = \frac{v}{g}.$$
Substituting this value of $$T$$ in (2), we get
$$\eqalign{
& g{t^2} + 2t\left( {v - u} \right) + 2\left( {v - u} \right)\left( {\frac{v}{g}} \right) = 0 \cr
& {\text{or}}\,\,t = \frac{{2g\left( {u - v} \right) + \sqrt {4{g^2}{{\left( {u - v} \right)}^2} + 8v{g^2}\left( {u - v} \right)} }}{{2{g^2}}} \cr
& {\text{or}}\,\,t = \frac{{u - v + \sqrt {{u^2} - {v^2}} }}{g} \cr} $$
neglecting the negative sign which gives negative value of $$t.$$

A particle moves a distance $$x$$ in time $$t$$ according to the equation $$x = {\left( {t + 5} \right)^{ - 1}}.$$ The acceleration of particle is proportional to
A
$${\left( {{\text{velocity}}} \right)^{\frac{3}{2}}}$$
B
$${\left( {{\text{distance}}} \right)^2}$$
C
$${\left( {{\text{distance}}} \right)^{ - 2}}$$
D
$${\left( {{\text{velocity}}} \right)^{\frac{2}{3}}}$$
Speed is a scalar quantity. It gives no idea about the direction of motion of the object. Velocity is a vector quantity, as it has both magnitude and direction. Displacement is a vector as it possesses both magnitude and direction. When an object goes on the path $$ABC$$ (in figure), then the displacement of the object is $$AC.$$ The arrow head at $$C$$ shows that the object is displaced from $$A$$ to $$C.$$
Torque is turning effect of force which is a vector quantity.

A cricket ball thrown across a field is at heights $${h_1}$$ and $${h_2}$$ from point of projection at times $${t_1}$$ and $${t_2}$$ respectively after the throw. The ball is caught by a fielder at the same height as that of projection. The time of flight of the ball in this journey is
A
$$\frac{{{h_1}t_2^2 - {h_1}t_1^2}}{{{h_1}{t_2} - {h_2}{t_1}}}$$
B
$$\frac{{{h_1}t_2^2 + {h_1}t_1^2}}{{{h_1}{t_2} + {h_2}{t_1}}}$$
C
$$\frac{{{h_1}{t_2}}}{{{h_2}{t_1} - {h_1}{t_2}}}$$
