Question
Three different objects m1, m2 and m3 are allowed to fall from rest and from the same point O along three different frictionless paths. The speeds of the three objects, on reaching the ground, will be in the ratio of
Options
A.m1 : m2 : m3
B.1 : 1 : 1
C.m1 : 2m2 : 3m3
D.

Solution

For paths BC1, BC2 & BC3 the height is same that is h. The terminal velocity be v then for all cases, v =

So, all will have same value of terminal velocity.
