JEE MAIN - Physics (2021 - 25th July Evening Shift - No. 7)

A balloon was moving upwards with a uniform velocity of 10 m/s. An object of finite mass is dropped from the balloon when it was at a height of 75 m from the ground level. The height of the balloon from the ground when object strikes the ground was around :

(takes the value of g as 10 m/s2)
300 m
200 m
125 m
250 m

Explanation

JEE Main 2021 (Online) 25th July Evening Shift Physics - Motion in a Straight Line Question 61 English Explanation

Object is projected as shown so as per motion under gravity

$$S = ut + {1 \over 2}a{t^2}$$

$$ - 75 = + 10t + {1 \over 2}( - 10){t^2} \Rightarrow t = 5$$ sec

Object takes t = 5 s to fall on ground

Height of balloon from ground

H = 75 + ut

= 75 + 10 $$\times$$ 5 = 125 m
