A body starts to fall freely under gravity. The distances covered by it in first, second and third second are in ratio

A

1:3:51:3:5

B

1:2:31:2:3

C

1:4:91:4:9

D

1:5:61:5:6

Answer

1:3:51:3:5

Explanation

Solution

Sn=u+g2(2n1)S_{n} = u + \frac{g}{2}(2n - 1); whenu=0u = 0,S1:S2:S3=1:3:5S_{1}:S_{2}:S_{3} = 1:3:5
