    Two bodies A and B have masses 20 kg and 5 kg respectively. Each one is acted upon by a force of 4 kg-wt. If they acquire the same kinetic energy in times\[{{t}_{A}}\]and\[{{t}_{B}},\]then the ratio\[\frac{{{t}_{A}}}{{{t}_{B}}}\]is

    A)  \[\frac{1}{2}\]                  

    B)         \[2\]                    

    C)  \[\frac{2}{5}\]                  

    D)         \[\frac{5}{6}\]

    E)  \[\frac{1}{5}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[{{a}_{1}}=\frac{F}{{{m}_{1}}}=\frac{4\times 10}{20}=2m{{s}^{-2}}\] \[{{a}_{2}}=\frac{F}{{{m}_{2}}}=\frac{4\times 10}{5}=8m{{s}^{-2}}\] Given that,   \[{{K}_{A}}={{K}_{B}}\] ie,                           \[\frac{1}{2}{{m}_{1}}v_{1}^{2}=\frac{1}{2}{{m}_{2}}v_{2}^{2}\] or \[{{m}_{1}}{{(u+{{a}_{1}}{{t}_{1}})}^{2}}={{m}_{2}}{{(u+{{a}_{2}}{{t}_{2}})}^{2}}\]       \[(\because v=u+at)\] or \[{{m}_{1}}a_{1}^{2}t_{1}^{2}={{m}_{2}}a_{2}^{2}t_{2}^{2}\]                                \[(\because u=0)\] or            \[\frac{{{t}_{1}}}{{{t}_{2}}}=\sqrt{\frac{{{m}_{2}}}{{{m}_{1}}}\times \frac{a_{2}^{2}}{a_{1}^{2}}}\]                 \[=\sqrt{\frac{5}{20}\times \frac{{{(8)}^{2}}}{{{(2)}^{2}}}}=\sqrt{\frac{5\times 64}{20\times 4}}=2\]
