MCQ (Single Correct Answer)

1
The velocity of a particle moving along $x$-axis is given as $V = x^2 - 5x + 4$ (in m/s) where $x$ denotes the $x$-coordinate of the particle in metres. The magnitude of the acceleration of the particle when the velocity of the particle zero is

Two stones begin to fall from rest from the same height, with the second stone starting to fall ' $\Delta \mathrm{t}$ ' seconds after the first falls from rest. The distance of separation between the two stones becomes ' H ', ' $\mathrm{t}_0$ ' seconds after the first stone starts its motion. Then $\mathrm{t}_0$ is equal to
