Question-2 An elevator whose floor to ceiling height is 2.75m starts ascending with constant upward acceleration of 1.2m/s^2. Two seconds after the start, a loose bolt drops from the ceiling towards the floor of the elevator. Calculate: (i) Time taken by the bolt to reach the elevator floor. (ii) Displacement of the bolt during that time (iii) The distance travelled by the bolt during the same time.
