THE CHOPPER RISES FROM REST ON THE GROUND VERTICALLY UPWARDS WITH A CONSTANT ACCLERATION g/8. A FOOD PACKET IS DROPPED WHEN IT HAS RISEN TO A HEIGHT h. SHOW THAT THE TIME TAKEN BY THE PACKET TO REACH THE GROUND IS 2 * ROOT UNDER h/g
Let us take the ground frame as the reference frame.
Let u be the initial velocity of the chopper and v be its velocity at height h.
According to the equations of the laws of motion,
v2-(0)2=2(g/8)h
v2=gh/4
v=√(gh)/2
So,the initial velocity of the food pachet when it is dropped from the height 'h' is √(gh)/2 in upward direction(one should take care of the sign conventions in these types of problems)
When the object is dropped,it has an accn. g in downward direction.
Let the time taken by the packet to reach the ground be 't'.
-h={√(gh)/2}t+(1/2)(-g)t2
(g/2)t2 - {√(gh)/2}t-h=0
Solving the quadratic equation,we get
t=2(√h/g),-√(h/g)
Since time cannot be negative,
time taken by the packet to reach the ground (t)=2√(h/g)
