Question
A man is 
behind the bus when the bus start accelerating from rest with acceleration 
. With what minimum velocity should the man start running to catch the bus
The correct answer is:
Let man will catch the bus after ‘
’
. So he will cover distance 
Similarly distance travelled by the bus will be 
For the given condition
To find the minimum value of 
sp we get 
then,
